The Things We Keep

Anna Forster is only 38 years old, but her mind is slowly slipping away from her. She knows that her family is doing what they believe to be best when they take her to Rosalind House, an assisted living facility, but Anna has a secret: she does not plan on staying. She also knows there’s just one another resident who is her age, Luke. What she does not expect is the love that blossoms between her and Luke even as she resists her new life. As her disease steals more and more of her memory, Anna fights to hold onto what she knows - and to Luke.

Eve Bennett, suddenly thrust into the role of single mother to her bright and vivacious seven-year-old daughter, finds herself putting her culinary training to use at Rosalind house. When she meets Anna and Luke, she is moved by the bond the pair has forged. But when a tragic incident leads Anna’s and Luke’s families to separate them, Eve finds herself questioning what she is willing to risk to help them.

The Things We Keep is a warm, humourous, page-turning novel about the power of love to grow and endure even when faced with the most devastating of obstacles.
