About The Book

My Only Daughter: A gripping and emotional tale of a mother’s love by Ann O’Loughlin

‘I love you, and you are my daughter, no matter what anyone says. Nobody can take you from me.’

In beautiful Rathmoney House nestled by the wild Irish Sea, Margo sits in her black suit, three strings of pearls at her neck, nodding at those offering their condolences. She never thought she would be here without her beloved husband. All she has left is their beautiful daughter Elsa and a house full of memories. Then, she receives a letter that turns everything she thought she knew on its head…

When Margo learns that her daughter was accidentally switched at birth with an American child and Elsa is not in fact her biological daughter, her world shatters. American Cassie and her daughter Tilly are equally shocked to learn about this tragic mistake, and both parents are terrified about the prospect of their daughters being taken away.

Margo and Cassie know that together they must protect their daughters, both biological and not. Cassie and Tilly fly to Ireland, and with the help of the local community they must learn to support each other through the most difficult times.

Will they be able to find a new version of family, or will the shocking revelation force them apart forever?

My Thoughts

Two women, Margo and Cassie living in different countries, the US and the UK don’t know each other or have any reason to, but they soon will. See these women raised each other’s biological daughter but don’t know this yet.

One is newly widowed, the other divorced with a husband that didn’t have time for his daughter. Both girls were born on the same day in the same hospital but one of the couples moves out of the country shortly after their daughter’s birth.

When a letter is delivered one day it changes the life of the woman who receives it when a dna test proves that not only is her ex-husband not the father, but she is not the mother.

This story follows the lives of the women, their daughters, family and friends as the women meet to save one of the girls’ lives.

There are so many ups and downs, my emotions could not keep up. I needed the Kleenex multiple times. I don’t want to give anything more away, but this is so heartwarming you’ll not want to put it down. Celebrating such strong female bonds that will last a lifetime. An absolute must read!

I was given a complimentary copy of this book.
