Alex crossed to the bed, where the only woman he had ever loved lay immobile. There was an ugly dark bruise along her jaw, but far more shocking was the plastic breathing tube protruding from between the lips he’d kissed only hours earlier. Despair and fear rose in Alex’s throat. 'We have a little boy. His name is Connor. He still needs his mother… We both do.'

When Lisa married Alex, she gave his life meaning. She was a professional astronomer: a stargazer. And when she gazed at Alex, she saw that behind his tough exterior was a man she could love.

Alex, Lisa and their young son Connor made a happy little universe. But then Lisa dies in a train crash, and their perfect world is destroyed. Alex is shattered by loss, and overwhelmed by the difficulties of being a single father to a six-year-old. How can he and Connor carry on without Lisa lighting up their lives?

But throughout her life Lisa touched the hearts of more people than just her family. And as those people whose fates were changed come forward after her tragic death, Alex hears their stories and begins to realise the world may not be as cruel and senseless as it seems. If you can find the strength to start over, there are new beginnings in even our most heartbreaking moments…

Million-copy bestselling author Dani Atkins returns for this gripping, powerful and emotional page turner that fans of Jodi Picoult, Diane Chamberlain and Kate Hewitt will find completely unputdownable.

                                                MY REVIEW:

Gone Too Soon by Dani Atkins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was so good and full of a lot of emotions.
Lisa and Alex are married with a young son named Connor. One morning they get up and get ready for the day as they always do. Lisa leaves for work. Then there is a train crash and Alex is crushed because he can't get Lisa to answer her phone and he knew she was on the train. Getting the phone call to come to the hospital was a nightmare.
Lisa was an organ donor. Because of that it changed the lives of 4 people. When Alex contacts them a relationship forms between all of them. Even Connor comes to enjoy them.
So the question is if your spouse/partner was a donor, would you want to know who received the organs? Or if you received organs would you want to say thank you to the family?
Thank you to Bookouture and NetGlley for the ARC to review.
