Reviews
Summary: Thirty-eight-year-old Nicole Adams has given up on finding love. The
single mother focuses on the two things she cherishes most—her sixteen-year-old
son Justin and her art—while relying on the support of her friends Mike and Jamie
and her loyal sister Caroline.
When she convinces a prominent Los Angeles museum to feature a
large-scale installation of her ceramics work, she thinks her life has finally
turned a corner.
Then Justin brings a girl, Daniela, home to spend the night. Daniela’s
angry parents have thrown her out of the house because she’s pregnant with
Justin’s child. Shattered, Nicole takes Daniela in and by doing so is drawn
into the inner circle of Daniela’s family and a frightening world of deceit and
violence.
Nicole struggles to keep life going as normal. Forced to deal with
people she doesn’t trust or like, fearful for the future of both her son and
the grandchild they’re expecting, Nicole wonders if she can do what she tells
Justin to do: always have faith in yourself and do the right thing.
What We Do for Love: A Novel is a standalone story written by
award-winning author Anne Pfeffer.
Review: This was a fast paced quick read about a single mom who is trying to become an artist and have her name known in the artist world when one day her whole life gets flipped upside down. Her 16 year old son who has his eyes on Ivy League schools, drops a bomb that he got a girl pregnant and that her parents have kicked her out.
Nicole opens her home to this girl and there is more going on that the word's I got a girl pregnant. Nicole is nurturing and caring and has the weight of the world on her shoulders. She has her older sister who has recently separated from her husband. She has a best friend named Mike who they are both shitty at announcing their feelings for each other. Nicole has her own ceramics business and she has been commissioned to do an art piece for a local art museum for a big opening.
There is a lot of drama and there was a time when I was cursing Justin out because he was freaking out about becoming a young dad and he didn't want any part in it. Then the ending, I was in rage at Daniela and her mother. This small book packed a punch and had me going through emotion after emotion.
