      Bestselling author Karma Brown is back with a morally infused and emotionally riveting exploration of one woman’s guilt over an unexpected—yet avoidable—tragedy

      Meg Pepper has a fulfilling career and a happy family. Most days she’s able to keep it all together and glide through life. But then, in one unalterable moment, everything changes.

      After school pickup one day, she stops her car to wave a teenage boy across the street...just as another car comes hurtling down the road and slams into him.

      Meg can’t help but blame herself for her role in this horrific disaster. Full of remorse, she throws herself into helping the boy’s family as he rehabs from his injuries. But the more Meg tries to absolve herself, the more she alienates her own family—and the more she finds herself being drawn to the boy’s father.

      Soon Meg’s picture-perfect life is unravelling before her eyes. As the painful secrets she’s been burying bubble dangerously close to the surface, she will have to decide: Can she forgive herself, or will she risk losing everything she holds dear to her heart?

      KARMA BROWN is an award-winning journalist and author of the bestsellers Come Away with Me and The Choices We Make. In addition to her novels, Karma’s writing has appeared in publications such as Redbook, SELF and Chatelaine. Karma lives just outside Toronto with her husband, daughter and their labradoodle, Fred.

      Praise for the novels of Karma Brown

      “We adored Come Away with Me and are ready for more of Brown’s powerful, heartfelt prose. She’s the female Nicholas Sparks.”

      —Redbook

      “Brown delivers an emotional punch in The Choices We Make. This is a good, old-fashioned tear-jerker of a book.”

      —The Toronto Star

      “The Choices We Make presents gut-wrenching questions about friendship and loyalty... Should appeal to readers who relish Nicholas Sparks’ sentimental stories combined with the kind of weighty issues often raised by Jodi Picoult.”

      —New York Journal of Books

      “A warmly compelling love story [and] deeply moving debut.”

      —Booklist

      “A compelling premise with a plot that intensifies satisfyingly in the second half, this book is a good bet for readers who don’t shy away from difficult moral questions.”

      —Kirkus Reviews

      “[A] beautifully written story of love and loss... Come Away with Me had me smiling through my tears.”

      —Tracey Garvis Graves, New York Times bestselling author of On the Island

      “[A] heartbreaking yet hopeful tale... Karma Brown is a talented new voice in women’s fiction.”

      —Lori Nelson Spielman, #1 international bestselling author of The Life List

      “Laughing one minute, then fiercely blinking back tears the next, we tore through this novel—so gripping that we were both excited and scared out of our minds to turn the page. Multilayered and completely consuming...[a] stunning page turner.”

      —Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke, authors of The Status of All Things

      “One woman’s journey through grief becomes the journey of a lifetime.”

      —Colleen Oakley, author of Before I Go

      For Mom & Dad—you told me I could do whatever I put my mind to.
