Book Tour: Memories of the Lost by Barbara O'Neil

Memories of the Lost by Barbara O'Neil  is published  Lake Union Publishing and is available on Kindle Unlimited.  I am featuring and reviewing today with  TLC Book Tours.  

Review: Memories of the Lost by Barbara O’Neil is a beautifully written story filled with mystery, love, and an almost magical quality like a fairy tale. The story alternates between Tillie's life in New York and Claire’s in England. I found myself sitting down to read the book and then completely losing track of time as I was so engrossed in the story. I recommend this very unique story.

PS  I hate to tell you too much or it would ruin the story. 

Blurb: An unsuspecting artist uncovers her late mother’s secrets and unravels her own hidden past in a beguiling novel by the USA Today bestselling author of When We Believed in Mermaids.

Months after her mother passes away, artist Tillie Morrisey sees a painting in a gallery that leaves her inexplicably lightheaded and unsteady. When a handsome stranger comes to her aid, their connection is so immediate it seems fated, though Liam is only visiting for a few days.

Working on her own art has always been a refuge, but after discovering a document among her mother’s belongings that suggests Tillie’s life has been a lie, she begins to suffer from a series of fugue states, with memories surfacing that she isn’t even sure are her own. As her confusion and grief mount, and prompted by a lead on the painting that started it all, Tillie heads to a seaside village in England. There, she hopes to discover the source of her uncanny inspirations, sort out her feelings about Liam, and unravel truths that her mother kept hidden for decades.

Barbara O’Neal is the author of more than a dozen award-winning, bestselling novels, including the runaway bestseller, When We Believed in Mermaids, which has been published in 21 countries and spent many months on both the most sold and most read Amazon Charts, as well as the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Washington Post bestseller lists. Barbara is an avid traveler and passionate cook, and discovered the Oregon coast on a pandemic-era trip with her husband. She now lives on that rocky, moody coast in a quirky beach house and writes her books from a room overlooking the sea. She lives with her British husband, who has promised to never lose his accent, and their cats and dogs.
