Description

From the Amazon Charts bestselling author of Whisper Me This comes an emotional and sharply witty novel about how life's unexpected detours can ultimately bring you home. For twenty-six years Liz has perfectly played the part of Mrs. Thomas Lightsey, exemplary pastor's wife and mother. But maintaining appearances for the congregation and catering to her demanding husband takes a toll, and she's lost herself in meeting the expectations of others. When Thomas suddenly dies, Liz feels shock, grief, and, to her surprise, the siren song of freedom. Dare she dream of a life to call her own? Despite the resistance of her daughter, Abigail, to even the smallest changes, Liz lands a role at the community theatre. Inspired by new friends and the character she plays, she explores life's possibilities, including an unexpected-and steamy relationship with her leading man. Just when Liz thinks she might be winning, life hits her with an unthinkable shock. She's pregnant at forty-nine. Torn between conflicting loyalties to her daughter, her lover, her unborn baby, and herself, can Liz find a way to rebuild her dream life one more time? 'In this vivid and triumphant tale, a woman loses her controlling husband and discovers she's been tightly contained in a cocoon for decades. Learning who she is, one step at a time like an unsteady toddler, means challenging everything and every relationship in her life -- and grappling with surprises that will turn her world upside down. Is she Elizabeth, the tight-laced pastor's wife, or Liz, the thespian who has a point of view all her own? Earthy, unpredictable, and wildly enjoyable.' --Barbara O'Neal, Wall Street Journal and Washington Post bestselling author of When We Believed in Mermaids 'Watching Liz Lightsey come back to life after years of letting her identity slide away is a treat. A Borrowed Life shows Kerry Anne King at her empathetic best, writing a tale of passion, meaning, and growth at any age, and leaving this reader touched and delighted!' -- Kelly Harms, Washington Post bestselling author of The Bright Side of Going Dark
