Emma's Secret

A Novel (Finding Emma, Book 2)

By: Steena Holmes

Narrated by: Kate Rudd

For two years, Megan, Peter, and their two older daughters, Alexis and Hannah, dream of nothing but being reunited with the family’s youngest child, Emma, who was kidnapped just before her third birthday. When Emma is miraculously found living with an elderly couple just miles from the family’s home, they are hopeful that her return will heal the wounds her disappearance created.

But Emma is vastly different from the sunny toddler they remember. She barely remembers her parents or her older sisters. She is quiet and withdrawn, and, worst of all, longs for the very people who kidnapped her.

Megan is consumed with bitterness, while Peter works later and later nights in the company of his gorgeous business partner. And in the middle of everything, Megan’s best friend has become suddenly distant and secretive.

Then a chance encounter in town leads to a secret that changes everything again for Emma. And Peter must decide between the happiness of his youngest daughter and the trust of his family.

love this book!

wo derfull story.worth the time. and , you will love the story and the message it gives,

Engaging story that challenged my thinking.

What did you love best about Emma's Secret?

I got this book on sale and did not know it was book 2 of a series. I took a few days to decide if I should continue before reading Finding Emma and I did (though I will read Finding Emma). The story took turns that I did not expect and really challeged how I wanted to feel about the characters.

What about Kate Rudd’s performance did you like?

The performance was ok. Not great but not the worst I've heard. She did try to change her performance for different characters but it sometimes came off poorly. However, it was consistent.

If you could take any character from Emma's Secret out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Gosh, that is a hard one. I guess I would have to say Jack. He is a character I'd like to explore more fully. I'd like to know more about his life, the thoughts he had during Emma's disappearance and things like that.

Any additional comments?

I was pleasantly surprised with the story overall. I was frustrated how my feelings towards Papa and Dottie were changed through the story. I felt very close to Megan and expected I would have been much like her. I cried more than once but especially at the end.

Loved This Book!

I loved the series although I wish I would have found Finding Emma 2 before reading this one. Great listen!

Loved, Loved, Loved

I loved this series (except book 2 - boring), I am looking forward to the other 2 books to come out on Audible.

Great story but...

Siri would have done a better reading this, it sounded like a robot. I finished just because the story was good.
