Fiction. Literature. When their last embryo is accidentally given to another woman, Quinn and James reminisce about the child they gave up 4 years prior... All Quinn has ever wanted is to be a mother. Although her husband James brings her comfort, the knowledge they have no embryos left, and that their child is out there being raised by another family, is tearing them both apart.When the clinic tells Quinn and James they have the right to spend time with little Emily, at first they hesitate. Of course, they would never want to come between Emily and her loving family. But they can't turn down the chance to look into their own child's eyes...Quinn's heart cracks wide open the second she sees Emily's wild curly hair framing her heart-shaped face, and big brown eyes staring up at her. And when a giggling Emily flings her tiny arms around Quinn's waist, it's like she's right where she belongs.And as the two families reckon with an unimaginable situation, a terrible secret from James' past surfaces: one that forces Quinn to question everything she thought she wanted. Will Emily's family allow their relationship to continue? How will they decide what's right for the little girl they all love so dearly? And where does Emily truly belong?An absolutely unputdownable, heart-wrenching read about two families torn apart by one terrible mistake. Anyone who loves Jodi Picoult's ´My Sister's Keeper´ won't be able to put this down.Read what everyone's saying about Our Stolen Child:"A beautifully written and emotive read that was gripping right from the start.

I read this book a couple weeks ago and I still don't really know how to review this book so I'm going to just say what comes to mind and hope it makes sense in the end. Our Stolen Child is an emotional and riveting story. I couldn't help but feel for both of these women but also for their families. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to live through something like that. It's a fast paced story full of twists that start from the very first chapter along with feeling every emotion you can think of. It's a powerful and beautifully written heartbreaking story. Thank you Bookouture and Melissa Wiesner!

This was an outstanding domestic drama about a couple undergoing IVF treatment for infertility who learns their last embryo was accidentally implanted by their fertility clinic in the wrong woman—and she is now raising their 4-year-old biological child.

I love books with a great juicy hook and OUR STOLEN CHILD grabbed me from the start. Quinn and James Marcello have struggled with infertility for years. I really connected with Quinn’s pain and her desperation to have a child. When she finds out that Nora had her biological child and that she is denying them visitation or any access, they decide to sue for custody. This book had juicy drama in SPADES. I liked the scenes with Liam, Nora’s brother, and Quinn. Nora and Quinn were frosty at first, but I liked that with time they grew to see each other’s pain. There were some good twists that came later in the book that I wasn’t expecting! This was heart wrenching, a great book for readers who love legal dramas, and I will definitely be checking out more books by this author!

Disclaimer: I received a complimentary ARC copy of this book from Bookouture and NetGalley for review purposes. ( )
