About this ebook

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?

Wow, this chick just could not catch a break. Big 40th birthday and her world literally falls apart. Honestly, I don’t know how she survived it in one piece (mentally). The story was moving and I enjoyed reading this book. My heart hurt by the end. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I absolutely loved this book by Elena Aitken! All We Never Knew is a women's fiction book which is a little different from what Elena Aitken typically writes, but definitely worth reading. Maren has finally reached a point in her life where she can make decisions based on what she wants and less about what is best for her family, but a surprise pregnancy changes that. What she doesn't expect is the reaction that she gets from her best friend and family when she tells them. This story was great and I'm definitely looking forward to reading more books by this author in the future. I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.

This was just brilliant and I struggled to put it down. This is different to Elena's other books and is just a beautiful story. This brought out so many heartfelt emotions in me as I related to so much of this story and had felt so many of the same things. I divorced at 40, had an unplanned pregnancy in my 40's, sold my forever home and moved on with my new life. At the end of the story I felt lighter and grateful and had a big smile on my face knowing that yes life does go on and it gets better.
