Blog Tour and Giveaway: The Memory House by Rachel Hauck

About the book

When Beck Holiday lost her father in the North Tower on 9/11, she also lost her memories of him. Eighteen years later, she’s a tough New York City cop burdened with a damaging secret, suspended for misconduct, and struggling to get her life in order. Meanwhile a mysterious letter arrives informing her she’s inherited a house along Florida’s northern coast, and what she discovers there will change her life forever. Matters of the heart only become more complicated when she runs into handsome Bruno Endicott, a driven sports agent who fondly recalls the connection they shared as teenagers. But Beck doesn’t remember that, either.

Decades earlier, widow Everleigh Applegate lives a steady, uneventful life with her widowed mother after a tornado ripped through Waco, Texas, and destroyed her new, young married life. When she runs into old high school friend Don Callahan, she begins to yearn for change. Yet no matter how much she longs to love again, she is hindered by a secret she can never share.

Fifty years separate the women but through the power of love and miracle of faith, they each find healing in a beautiful Victorian known affectionately as The Memory House.

My Review
The Memory House is a great read. I love time slip novels and was excited when I got the chance to read and review this one. I have to admit that at first, I was little confused trying to keep up with the characters. It took me a bit to get caught and understand what was going on. After I figured out what was going on about fifty pages or so in, I could not put the book down. I love how Rachel Hauck used her story to show faith and inspiration on how to be redeemed, how to forgive – including yourself, how to move on from a heart break, and having second chances. 

I am giving The Memory House four and a half stars. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy time slip novels. This one should not be missed that I found to be a must read. 

I received this book from the publisher. This review is 100% my own honest opinion.

  1. I've never read a time slip novel before, so this sounds intriguing and an excellent one to start with based on your review.
