A childhood love longing to make amends. A daughter fighting to break free. A mother struggling to protect her. Tormented by the past, can they build a better future?

Six years ago, tragedy tore Eloise and Patrick apart. Shouldering the burden of his brother’s death, he spent years drinking himself into oblivion. Now freed from that darkness, Patrick Lennox returns to reclaim the heart of the young lady he left behind.

Can she forgive the man who abandoned her without a word?

Eloise Andrews has enough troubles in her life without Patrick stirring things up. Her mother is a heartless beast who controls every aspect of her life, and Eloise is determined to break free of her—even if it means destroying the perfect reputation her mother is desperate to save.

But not all wounds can be seen, and perhaps something more lurks beneath her mother’s frosty demeanor…

Years of torment taught Emmeline Andrews to shield her heart behind a sterling reputation, and she will do everything she can to ensure her children are protected against society’s cruelty. But with her daughter determined to ruin herself and Emmeline’s own marriage crumbling to pieces, she has to decide whether or not that precious reputation is a shield or a jail.

Jumping between two generations, Honor and Redemption is a story about how our mistakes can shape our world and how the bond between mother and daughter, friends and sweethearts can break when we are afraid to open our hearts.

Disappointing.

Not up to Georgette Heyer standard. Not even up to Barbara Cartland standard. All right for the undiscerning.

Outstanding, poignant and painful

M A Nichols brings flawed characters to life in such a way that our hearts engage. When Eloise’s story was interrupted by a flashback to her mother’s childhood, I was a bit annoyed. But really, Emmeline is the heart of the book. Her experiences, fears, abandonment shape her responses to life, and in so doing, they impact on her whole extended family. In the drama that ensures, the complicity of others is made clear to them also. In many ways this is a hard book to read. The characters’ pain was so real. Yet, redemption is a joy devoutly to be sought. So if you are in the mood for froth and bubble today, this is not your read. This is a book with heft.

Unique story

Very interesting premise for the story of Eloise and Emmeline. I thoroughly enjoy Ms Nichols' writing, and this was a uniquely written story that connects to the lives of Simon and Mina as well. I just love how the lives of the characters are so well intertwined!There were a few omitted words and the final version (on Kindle at least) could have used another edit. Overall, another great story from this brilliant and insightful author!

Wow!

The synopsis does not do this novel justice. I wanted to slap Eloise, and hug Emmaline, her mother, though the woman would not have liked it. . This was as much about Emmaline & Norman, as Patrick & Eloise, and I would have liked to have seen Norman feature more. That said, i am rarely moved to tears but this story almost broke my heart! Huge appreciation of author’s storytelling skills; she has a new fan! ❤️
