T.I.M.E. BOOK REVIEW
In Beth Moran's latest page-turner, Lean On Me, readers are swept into a poignant tapestry of trauma, romance, and the rejuvenating power of community. Faith's story unfolds with gripping authenticity as she juggles the looming presence of a haunting past with preparations for a future that promises security but trembles with unspoken fears.
The book skillfully weaves a compelling narrative where the threads of family and friendship intertwine to offer a sanctuary against life's storms. Through the vibrant dynamics of the Grace Chapel choir and the tenacious spirit of choir leader Hester, Faith — along with the reader — is guided on a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing.
Beth Moran has once again struck a chord with contemporary romance readers in the realm of trauma romance books, creating a symphony of characters whose vulnerabilities resonate with us all and whose triumphs inspire a chorus of hope.
Lean On Me is a testament to the resilient beat of the human heart and a celebration of the melodies that unite us in our quest for love and belonging... ✨😎✨

PUBLISHER BOOK SYNOPSIS
From bestselling author Beth Moran comes a story about family, friendship and community...
As Faith tries on her future mother-in-law’s wedding dress in preparation for her own wedding, her tears are not of joy. The hideous frock is nicknamed ‘The Ghost Web’ by Faith’s best friend Marilyn, who can’t understand why Faith would even consider wearing it. But there’s a lot Marilyn doesn’t know about Faith – not the least of which is that Faith is just the latest of the names she has called herself.
Faith and her brother Sam survived a traumatic childhood which included having to change their names to hide from the past, but surviving has left scars. Faith’s generous fiancé Perry doesn’t just promise to be a partner, he offers freedom and security, and enough kindness to keep Faith squashing down any doubts on what ‘being in love’ really means.
It’s not until she meets an extraordinary group of women at the Grace Chapel choir, that things start to become crystal clear. As choir-leader extraordinaire, the indomitable Hester, holds a mirror up to her ragtag group of singers, all with their own burdens and insecurities, and teaches them to see how magnificent they are, so Faith can dare to dream of a future where she and Sam can stop running and she might even be ready to accept the love that she deserves.
Bestselling author Beth Moran is back with her trademark ingredients of wisdom and warmth, heartbreak and hearts soaring...
