Lily Rose
Book Feature - Lily Rose by Deborah Robinson
HBL Note: One of the pitfalls of being a book blogger is that my reading schedule is TIGHT. I schedule one book for review a week, so when there is a delay with shipments (and there has been a lot of that during COVID) it means that a book review becomes a book feature. I wish I had more time in the day to read and I wish I was a speed reader so that I could read all the books that appeal to me. This one will stay on my bookshelf until I find some free time to indulge in some just-for-fun reading. Scroll down and you’ll see why this one appealed to me!
Book Feature - Lily Rose by Deborah Robinson
From the publisher:
Is blood truly thicker than water? After a desperate search for her birth mother, fashionista Lily Rose is forced to confront her turbulent past.
Love has set the tone for most of Lily Rose’s young life in Cumberland Falls, high in the mountains of Eastern Kentucky. But her perfect world falls apart when her beloved adopted parents are tragically killed and she is sent to live at Red Rose Farm, in the Bluegrass. Lily starts high school and meets her first love, who introduces the idea of a much bigger world to Lily. This relationship spurs her to pursue the grit and glamour of the New York fashion world and a marriage that will nearly cause her demise.
Lily Rose follows Lily as she grows into a New York fashion icon and battles abuse, power struggles, and infertility. In the shadows, we learn about the young woman who gave Lily up and how they will collide. Lily Rose is about love and marriage, infidelity, infertility, and identity. It also calls into questions the old adages blood is thicker than water and nothing is more important than family. Will Lily Rose ever find what she has been searching for? And most importantly, will she be able to stay true to herself in the process?
