About this listen

A fateful decision from the past haunts a wealthy Californian. Desperate to make things right, she risks everything in this tense short story from New York Times bestselling author Julie Clark.

Hillary Jean leads an enviable life. She has a loving husband, a beautiful home, caring friends, and meaningful work planning fundraisers. Yet she’s always felt incomplete. After a DNA website emails her a match, Hillary sets out to find the daughter she gave up twenty-five years ago. But her hunger to reconnect threatens to destroy the very thing she hopes to gain.

The Heart of a Mother is part of Obsession, a collection of compulsively readable short stories about people pushed to their extremes. So addictive you won’t be able to put them down—read or listen to each story in a single sitting.

Great Novella By Julie Clark!

I am amazed with the level of character development and plot Julie Clark managed to fit into such a short novella. This did not feel like it was only 1.5 hours; very well crafted. I found the ending/twist somewhat predictable, but I was still thoroughly entertained. I love Julie Clark as an author!
