Book Review: This Fragile Life by Kate Hewitt

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Summary:
You love your best friend. You trust her with your life. But could you give her the most precious gift of all? Alex’s life is a mess. She’s barely holding down a job, only just affording her apartment, and can’t remember when she was last in a relationship. An unexpected pregnancy is the last thing she needs. Martha’s life is on track. She’s got the highflying career, the gorgeous home and the loving husband. But one big thing is missing. Five rounds of IVF and still no baby. The solution seems simple. Alex knows that Martha can give her child everything that she can’t provide. But Martha’s world may not be as perfect as it seems, and letting go isn’t as easy as Alex expected it to be. Now they face a decision that could shatter their friendship forever. Provocative. Emotional. Affecting. Share This Fragile Life with your best friend.
Review:
I knew just from reading the synopsis that this one was going to be hard to put down, and I was right. It’s impossible not to be sucked into the worlds of Martha and Alex, two very different friends facing such a tough decision. I really had no idea how the story was going to end – would Alex change her mind and want to keep the baby? If she gave it up to Martha, would their friendship survive? I won’t give away any hints to what does happen, only that the book made me very emotional and made me think long and hard about what it means to be a mother. I think the book was written right in that we got POV’s from both women, and I really couldn’t imagine it not being that way. I finished this novel in one day, because I just had to find out how the story played out. One of my favorites of the year, and I do plan on sharing this with my girlfriends!
