CLP Blog Tours Book Review: Worlds Apart by Ber Carroll
Ber Carroll is on tour now with CLP Blog Tours and Worlds Apart
Summary:
Two women worlds apart …
one secret that changes everything.
Erin and Laura are cousins and best friends who share a love of languages and travel.
Erin, a French teacher in Dublin, reaches crisis point and drops everything to move to Australia. In Sydney, not only does she land the perfect job, but she meets the perfect man. Finally, her life is falling into place. Except Sydney isn’t home, and never can be.
Back in Ireland, Laura is struggling. Her husband appears distant, her work life is spinning out of control and her daughter’s strange new nanny is undermining her at every turn. She longs to travel in Erin’s footsteps, to drop everything and run far away. But these are dangerous thoughts for a mother and wife.
As Erin and Laura desperately try to find their place in the world, a shocking family secret comes to light, and nothing will ever be the same again.
Review:
Ber Carroll is a new author to me, and I love finding new authors to follow! Worlds Apart gives readers a complex story into one family, and I love how the past kept getting twisted into the present plot. The beginning started a little slow for me, but it was easy to get drawn in, especially when tensions start to run high. I’ll be on the lookout for more Ber Carroll books!

Author Bio:
Ber Carroll was born in Blarney, County Cork, and moved to Australia in 1995.

Ber now lives in Sydney’s northern beaches with her husband and two children. Worlds Apart is her sixth novel. Incidentally, Ber is short for Bernadette, but please don’t call her Bernadette: this is what her mother calls her when she is in trouble for something.
