Publisher Description
After five long years of waiting, Gabrielle and Alex’s most longed-for wish is about to come true. Their baby son is due any day, and Gabi has everything planned down the last detail.
Alex has never been one for making plans. He’s a firm believer in fate, trusting that on any given day, things are exactly how they’re supposed to be.
When Gabrielle’s plans go awry at the last minute, both are thrown for a loop.
Trying to hold his family together soon takes a toll on Alex. When his once unbreakable connection to Gabrielle begins to slip, his faith in fate is stretched to the limit.
Charli has been waiting to meet her baby brother for months. When the call finally comes, she jumps on the first flight out of New York and heads home for a surprise visit.
Little does she know, her treasured family is at breaking point.
Bonding with her brother comes easily. Maintaining the tight bond she’s always shared with her father is harder to do.
Customer Reviews
Rich and intense
Robert Silverberg (American author and editor) writes:
"A novella is one of the richest and most rewarding of literary forms...it allows for more extended development of theme and character than does the short story, without making the elaborate structural demands of the full length book. Thus it provides an intense, detailed exploration of its subject..."
I devoured Silver Dawn. My two favourite characters of the Wishes Series were present - Alex and Charli...how could I not? It was intense. So intense that my heart hurt one moment and then rejoiced in the next moment; GJ Walker-Smith has a way with words. She writes beautifully; so much so that as a reader you can't help but get involved in the story, can't help shouting at the characters in frustration, can't help hurting when they are, and sharing their joy too.
It was wonderful having Charli and Alex back together again. Their relationship is my absolute favourite. The roles are somewhat reversed in Silver Dawn and Charli is portrayed to be a calm, loving and supportive daughter to Alex...he should feel proud - for me, he is the one who made her as she is.
"Whatever I'd taught my daughter over the years would forever pale in comparison to the things I'd learned from her. I hadn't made Charli. She'd made me".
This novella is rich. You will love it.
