The Memory House by Rachel Hauck – Review & Giveaway

About the Book

When Beck Holiday lost her father in the North Tower on 9/11, she also lost her memories of him. Eighteen years later, she’s a tough New York City cop burdened with a damaging secret, suspended for misconduct, and struggling to get her life in order. Meanwhile a mysterious letter arrives informing her she’s inherited a house along Florida’s northern coast, and what she discovers there will change her life forever. Matters of the heart only become more complicated when she runs into handsome Bruno Endicott, a driven sports agent who fondly recalls the connection they shared as teenagers. But Beck doesn’t remember that, either.
 
Decades earlier, widow Everleigh Applegate lives a steady, uneventful life with her widowed mother after a tornado ripped through Waco, Texas, and destroyed her new, young married life. When she runs into old high school friend Don Callahan, she begins to yearn for change. Yet no matter how much she longs to love again, she is hindered by a secret she can never share.
 
Fifty years separate the women but through the power of love and miracle of faith, they each find healing in a beautiful Victorian known affectionately as The Memory House.

In My Opinion

Memorable characters and events, a story you don’t want to put down, and two swoony romances mean Rachel Hauk has done it one again with The Memory House.

I love, love, loved this story. From tough NYC cop Beck Holiday with a tender heart and missing memories, a sports agent who, as a young teen, had big plans to marry Beck, and a widow who fears falling in love again, Hauck’s dual-time novel exposes the challenges Everleigh in the 1950s and Beck in present day.

Hauck’s ability to write heart-wrenching and heart-warming stories of hope and healing, of loss and love, and of life’s challenges just keeps getting better with each book she writers. You need to add The Memory House  to your TBR ASAP. Seriously, go do it now. You do not want to miss Everleigh, Don, Beck, and Bruno (not to mention Beetle Boo and Baby Girl).
