He helped you move on… Until you discovered what he did.
Louisa Adams has done her best to hold herself together in the years since she lost her husband in a car accident. But each morning she wakes to find his side of the bed cold is more painful than the last, and she’s struggling to make ends meet as a writer. She must admit defeat and move into the crumbling seaside guest house her daughter just bought. Perhaps it might help put what’s left of their broken family back
together…
There, Louisa is offered a final chance to save her career by writing an article on a local sand artist, Isaac. Except, when he turns to greet her – tall, handsome and weather-worn – something about him feels disturbingly familiar. Why, when he looks into her eyes, does she feel like he knows exactly who she is and everything she’s been through?
As they explore the rugged coastline’s hidden coves together – living and laughing like she never thought she would again – Louisa is fascinated by this man who creates beautiful sculptures on the shoreline, but deep down she knows he’s keeping a secret from her. The discovery of a charcoal scribble in one of his sketchbooks linking him to the death of her husband, confirms her deepest fear. Is she ready for what he will tell her, and will letting him in tear her family and her heart apart all over again?
A heartbreaking, page-turning and completely unforgettable family drama you will read in one sitting. Perfect for anyone who loves Amanda Prowse, Kerry Fisher and Jodi Picoult.

After a varied career, Emma Davies once worked for a design studio where she was asked to provide a fun and humorous (and not necessarily true) anecdote for their website. She wrote the following: 'I am a bestselling novelist currently masquerading as a thirty something mother of three.' Well the job in the design studio didn't work out but she's now a forty something mother of three and is happy to report the rest of her dream came true.
After many years as a finance manager she now writes full time and is far happier playing with words than numbers. She lives with her husband, three children, and two guinea pigs in rural Shropshire where she writes in all the gaps in between real life. It's a county she adores, her love of its beautiful people and landscapes providing endless inspiration for her books, and in fact the only thing that would make Shropshire more idyllic is if it were by the sea.

First, I want to thank Emma Davies, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.
After The Crash is one of my ultimate favorite books that Emma Davies has written. It is emotionally intense that at times you are gripping the sides of your comfy chair. Then again she will also pull at your heartstrings too. Emma is good like that though! This is one powerful book that needs to be put on your must read list.
Emma wrote a truly beautiful story sharing some great insight and words of wisdom.
My heart broke for Louisa as I learned she lost her husband to a drunk driver. I too know all too well that pain as I lost my Uncle that way. You never truly get over the loss. I felt her anger that she felt with the guy that killed her husband. For years I felt the same way.
Emma chose such breathtaking picturesque scenery for After The Crash. Not only the scenery but the cute little shops that the town had. She showed us with her detailed words how magnificent this place really was. With the year I just had it was nice to escape to paradise for a few hours.
After The Crash was very much about family, loss, grieving, forgiveness, and finding yourself. It also touches on subjects such as drunk driving, abortion, and seizures.
This book is filled with emotional roller coasters, secrets, hard truths, revelations, realizations, and shocking moments.
I am a huge fan of tv reality shows where they renovate houses. So, I loved how Leah and Robin were renovating a hotel. Emma focused on all the work and the stress it can cause on a couple.
My heart was pounding fast at the climax of the book! I didn’t see this event happen and was praying everything came out ok.
