Aching Heart

"A beautifully written, emotionally resonant novel that lingers long after the final page."

When a devastating cancer diagnosis shatters nursing sister Hannah Dervain's carefully ordered life, she is forced to confront more than her mortality. Estranged from her daughter Savanna who is serving time in prison, Hannah must face years of regret, silence, and unresolved pain.

As mother and daughter attempt a fragile reunion, old wounds reopen, and reckless choices threaten the tentative healing they've begun. Set against the vivid backdrop of Johannesburg, this powerful women's fiction novel explores forgiveness, courage, and the redemptive power of love.

Can Hannah find the strength to become the mother she longs to be—before it's too late?
