The Shape of your Heart by Debbie Howells #Review

 

Today I am pleased to be featuring Debbie Howell's novel. The Shape of Your Heart on the blog. It was published by Boldwood Books on 7th February. 

 
'When the world says “give up”, hope whispers, “try it one more time”.’

Callie’s always been the least ambitious of her sisters but also the happiest, until fate snaps her fiance before they can say I do.

One year later, she is still putting her life back together, but she might be ready for more. With so much life left to live, she has to find a way to be happy.

Nathan knows not everyone gets a second chance at life and he’s not going to waste his. He’s left the city behind, moved to Cornwall and is starting over. When he meets a beautiful woman at the beach it feels like fate, but her heart belongs to someone else.

Could Callie and Nathan be just what the each other needs?

My Thoughts

This is a life-affirming story which deals with the aftermath of grief and living with loss in a sensitive and heartwarming way. Through Callie, you follow her devastation at a life changing event and see how, as the year progresses, she processes what has happens and learns to look forwards again. 

    Nathan has moved to Cornwall after a major health episode and found that he now wants a different, less stressful way of life. As Nathan and Callie’s stories merge, you see the healing power of nature and the purpose caring for nature can bring. There are some important messages in the book about the effect of tourism on Cornwall and how going after maximum profit may not always be right for the community. I enjoyed the glimpses into Callie’s  family who all support her so much. 

In short: starting over
