Mini Review and Blog Tour: Reclaiming Lily


Reclaiming Lily by Patti Lacy

Release Date: October 1, 2011
Publisher: Bethany House
Genre: Christian Contemporary
Pages: 380
Format: Paperback
Buy It: Amazon
A storm the size of Texas brews when Gloria Powell and Kai Chang meet in a Dallas hotel. They have come to discuss the future of Lily, the daughter Gloria adopted from China and the sister Kai hopes to reclaim. Kai is a doctor who had to give up her little sister during the Cultural Revolution and has since discovered that an inherited genetic defect may be waiting to fatally strike Lily.

Gloria's relationship with her daughter is tattered and strained, and the arrival of Kai, despite the woman's apparent good intentions, makes Gloria fearful. Gloria longs to restore her relationship with Lily, but in the wake of this potentially devastating diagnosis, is Kai an answer to prayer...or will her arrival force Gloria to sacrifice more than she ever imagined?
This book was so touching! I found myself in tears more than once. I could feel the pain and desire each woman had for this girl, and that ultimately they only wanted her to have a fulfilling and happy life. I can't imagine having to battle someone like that! This book was very real; it showed how two people can love another person so much and in two totally different ways, and that they can work together to keep her life going strong.
