Hope,
a contemporary romance by author Fay Lamb, takes the reader into the life of a
young woman, Hope Astor, who has lost so much. When she believes there is
nothing else to lose, Hope discovers she has breast cancer. Without a cent to
her name, Hope is ready to give up and accept the inevitable, but her friends
have become an eclectic family, and they encourage her to keep going. They also
rally around to give her the emotion and financial support necessary to seek
the best oncological surgeon in Central Florida. Trouble is, Hope is the reason
Dr. Duvall’s sister is dead, and she doesn’t think saving her life is on his list
of priorities.
Hope is a story of one woman’s
desire to endure illness and to be example of someone who needs to know a
greater love than she has to offer him. When Daniel Duvall agrees that his
oncological practice will treat Hope’s cancer, Hope must humble herself to
accept a kindness she knows Daniel does not want to provide. Through her
ordeal, Hope soon learns that the curves in our lives might be a highway to
exactly what one needs. As Daniel works with Hope through her treatment, he
sees the change in the young, vibrant, and once-racy woman he has always adored
but thought he could never forgive. Daniel’s grieving mother would not be happy
to know that he’s helped the young woman who took her daughter from their
lives, but Daniel is learning that forgiveness is freedom and that freedom
opens doors once thought locked forever. When Daniel finds himself falling in
love, Hope has a closed door of her own: she could never allow their love to
flourish unless they have his parents’ approval.
Lamb says, “I have never had cancer, but I have known people in my life
who have gone through the struggles of chemo, surgery, and radiation. Some
endured and others lost their lives, but all are heroes to me. While some
novels with characters enduring medical illness focus more on the disease than
on the plot, Hope is a story with hope at its center and a sweet romance
of two people in love separated by the consequences of one’s actions.”
Hope releases March 14, 2017
