The Lost and Found Girl by Maisey Yates

 

💖💖💖💖💖

The Lost and Found Girl by Maisey Yates is a wonderfully written emotional story that explores a painful past but also shows the strong bond that exists between the McGee sisters, Dahlia, Lydia and Marianne. This book explores their current situations while growing the bond between all the sisters, including Ruby. Keeping the past in the past was difficult, as answers about the past are needed before the four sisters can move forward. We are able to learn more about the women; their hopes, dreams, heartaches, fears, and relationships. Each of them wears a brave face to prevent the others from looking too deep; from revealing their secrets.

 

Ruby was left on the covered bridge on a cold December night shortly after her birth. She would like to know the identity of her birth mother and why she abandoned her. Ruby’s quest for the truth will bring some dark secrets to light. However, the story is not just about Ruby. Her three sisters all have their own stories, stories that play a role in Ruby’s search for answers while the sisters all try to keep their feet on solid ground. In fact, some of their problems are deeply intense, that looking into Ruby’s history is the last thing they want to do.

This isn’t just a story about finding answers; it’s is about self-discovery, family, friendships, mistakes made, growth, a touch of romance, forgiveness, and planting hope. It’s about having the strength to uncover the darkness, so the light can come in. About unpacking the lies, so truth can begin to heal. Sometimes what’s right isn’t what’s easy; and although the truth might not protect us, it will set us free.

 

Ms. Yates wrote a story that reaches the soul; the soul of her characters as well the soul of her readers. This is weaves a story that is rich with emotion and intricacies. Subtle nuances in the details have you trying to read between the lines. You think you know what is going to happen but she manages to surprise you every time. Utilizing alternating POVs in order to tell this wonderful and amazing story; a tale that was emotional, moving, tear inducing, filled with wonderful dialogue, and endearing characters. The Lost and Found Girl is a must read that I highly recommend to other readers.
