Her Sister's promise by Catherine Miller Blog Tour

Today I'm excited to share my very first read for 2023! And it was a great one. It was also the first book by Catherine Miller that I have read but it's definitely made me want to check out more of her books! Thanks to bookouture for organising the blog tour!
Synopsis
I laugh as I watch my sister cross the road, her blonde curls bouncing. Her happiness is so contagious that I fail to spot the black cab racing towards her…
In a split second, my world shatters. My heart pounds inside my chest as I helplessly look on. Harper’s life – my precious twin sister – hangs in the balance. And I know that nothing will ever be the same.
After the accident, I’m told Harper will live, but that she’ll never walk again. I make a promise to never leave her side, but she says it’s too painful to watch me continue to train as a dancer. And when she starts to distance herself from me, I’m in pieces. I have never done anything without her by my side, and suddenly she’s slipping away from me.
Facing life without my best friend is harder than I thought, and I can’t bear the pain of knowing that Harper is suffering. And as my world begins to crumble, will my sister remember the promise she made to me when we were children? That we would always find our way back to one another, and live our lives together, no matter what…
A heartbreaking and gripping emotional read, perfect for fans of unputdownable family dramas, and for those who love reading Jodi Picoult, Liane Moriarty and Diane Chamberlain.

My review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jodie and Harper are identical in every way, from looks to what they want to do with their lives. Until...

Haper is knocked by a speeding taxi leaving her paralysed and their dream to be dancers is shattered.
While Harper has to go to a rehab facility to recover, gain strength and adjust to her new life she requests that they stop seeing each other for the whole 6 weeks and only have 3 word texts to each other daily as their communication.
Jodie has to continue with their old life alone and has her own adjustment to make.
Alone for the first time in their lives each has to come to terms with their separation and find their identity as a single person now instead of 2 sides of the same coin.
Each shows strenth and perseverance in times of desperation with twintuition ( the strong sense twins share with regards to each other) to guide them.
With nail biting tension, a few scary situations, the feelings of dreadful anticipation were strong! This was such a gripping novel, I adored the relationship Jodie and Harper share and despite separation their bond cannot be broken.

About the author
When Catherine Miller became a mum to twins, she decided her hands weren’t full enough so wrote a novel with every spare moment she managed to find. By the time the twins were two, Catherine had a two-book deal with Carina UK. Her debut novel, Waiting For You, came out in March 2016.
Catherine was a NHS physiotherapist, but for health reasons she retired early from this career. As she loved her physiotherapy job, she decided if she couldn’t do that she would pursue her writing dream. It took a few years and a couple of babies, but in 2015 she won the Katie Fforde bursary, was a finalist in the London Book Fair Write Stuff Competition and highly commended in Woman magazine’s writing competition. Since then she’s had four novels published.
