Publisher Description
An emotional, women's fiction stand-alone novel from USA Today Bestselling Author. All We Never Knew is a powerful "must-read" story of one woman's journey of strength.
What if life really begins at 40 because the life you've meticulously built for yourself is no longer possible?
As far as Maren is concerned, life is perfect and it’s just about to get better. On the cusp of her fortieth birthday and with her only child almost grown, it's time to start putting herself and her marriage first. But when the butterflies in her tummy turn out to be morning sickness, Maren’s world is flipped upside down with an unplanned, high risk pregnancy—one she's ashamed to admit is unwanted.
Overnight, everything changes and the ripple effect of the baby she's so unsure of is felt in every corner of her life. Her perfect life slowly disappears. Her teenage daughter looks for attention in the wrong places. Her best friend inexplicably blows up and stops speaking to her. And worse, her once doting husband pulls away when she needs him the most.
Just when she's sure things couldn't possibly be worse, a shocking discovery rocks Maren's world. Faced with a devastating deception, a truth she can no longer ignore, and an impossible choice, can Maren stop her life from completely unraveling? Or is All We Never Knew too much for love to overcome?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In Elena Aitken’s amazing novel, a strong heroine faces down a personal crisis with a realistic mix of emotions that we felt right down to our bones. Maren has a life anybody might envy—a loving husband and almost-grown daughter, a job she loves, and a supportive best friend. But the day after her 40th birthday, Maren gets one heck of a surprise, in the form of a nasty bout of morning sickness. We felt shell-shocked right alongside Maren as the prospect of a later-in-life pregnancy upends all of her plans and sends her closest relationships into a tailspin. Written with incredible empathy, All We Never Knew is a heartbreakingly relatable story of sorrow and resilience. It reminds us that when our world crumbles, we get a chance to build something even better.
