Pause by Sara Stamey

Title: Pause
Author: Sara Stamey

A thought provoking story with realistic characters bringing hope and inspiration - it’s never too late to live the life you wanted but someone else decided you shouldn’t.

Growing up with a physically abusive dad, Lindsey tried to get her mother to leave him, but she always stayed insisting he was a ‘good provider’. Later on when Lindsey gets married to Nick, she learns that not all abuse is physical and that as much damage, if not more, can be done with words.

Finally divorced, Lindsey is trying to regain her self respect by getting her life back on track again. Step by step we follow her as she discovers friendship and perhaps love again, how she develops as a woman (hot flushes and all!) and how sometimes alone is better than lonely in a relationship.

Thank you to NetGalley and Book View Cafe for allowing me to read this eARC. The book will be published on 2 November 2021.

But when a mission backfires in tragedy, the band of bikers who founded OpStar dissolves the organization and their ride-or-die friendship. Five years later Amanda, Sidney, and Cassandra are brought back together by the same thing that tore them apart when the man who victimized his wife is murdered, and all signs point to Cassandra.
