Wait for the Rain Review

Book Description
Publication Date: February 24, 2015
Daphne White is staring down the barrel of forty—and is distraught at what she sees. Her ex-husband is getting remarried, her teenage daughter hardly needs her anymore, and the career she once dreamed about has somehow slipped from her grasp. She’s almost lost sight of the spirited and optimistic young woman she used to be.

As she heads off to a Caribbean island to mark the new decade with her best friends from college, Daphne’s in anything but the mood to celebrate. But when she meets Clay Hanson, a much younger man, she ignores her inner voice warning her that she’s too old for a fling. In fact, this tropical getaway might be the perfect opportunity to picture her future in a new sun-drenched light.

With the help of her friends, Daphne rediscovers her enthusiasm for life, as well as her love for herself—and realizes that her best years are still ahead.

My Thoughts
I enjoyed this book quite a bit. As someone who is in her middle 40s, I can understand how a person can lose themselves. I look at my life today and I too have allowed other people to change me and not always for the better. I can understand Daphne's need to reconnect with who she was. I think this a book you need to pay attention to so you can see the small changes in Daphne's mindset to see how she gets from point A to point B. Women can easily lose their identity in themselves as individuals and only see who they are as someone's wife, mother, daughter etc.. This is the first book I have read by Maria Murnane but now I know it won't be the last.
