For half a century, Eva Kennedy was at the centre of things in the small eastern Ontario village of Cumberland, while raising a family of six, assisting her husband who was the township clerk, and running a private maternity hospital. And in writing, she found some solace for the fears that accompanied her sons to war, and contentment as her children made their own way in a brave new world. Her diaries and letters, annotated by her daughter, offer a remarkable insight into an extraordinary age.

You can pay a terrible price for keeping a promise… Evelyn Taylor-Clarke sits in her chair at Forest Lawns Care Home in the heart of the English countryside, surrounded by residents with minds not as sharp as hers. It would be easy to dismiss Evelyn as a muddled old woman, but her lipstick is applied perfectly, and her buttons done up correctly. Because Evelyn is a woman with secrets and Evelyn remembers everything. She can never forget the promise she made to the love of her life, to discover the truth about the mission that led to his death, no matter what it cost her… When Evelyn’s niece Pat opens an old biscuit tin to find a photo of a small girl with a red ball entitled ‘Liese, 1951’ and a passport in another name, she has some questions for her aunt. And Evelyn is transported back to a place in Germany known as ‘The Forbidden Village,’ where a woman who called herself Eva went where no one else dared, amongst shivering prisoners, to find the man who gambled with her husband’s life… A gripping, haunting and compelling read about love, courage and betrayal set in the war-battered landscape of Germany. Fans of The Letter, The Alice Network and The Nightingale will be hooked.

I absolutely love the premise of the heroine faking dementia in her retirement home to cover up her knowledge of (and possible involvement in) questionable activities centering around WWII events. The tempo of this novel was perfect--kept me wondering until the very last page!’ Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars ‘Absolutely loved this book and its riveting plot!... The author has successfully penned a debut novel that I would highly recommend without any hesitation. An excellent debut novel from Suzanne Goldring and I look forward to reading more of her work. Historical fiction is my favourite genre to read and this book was every bit as good as some of the well-known WW2-themed titles published in recent years.’ Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars ‘This book was excellent! Totally kept my attention and I wanted to find out what would become of the main characters. Highly recommended.’ Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars ‘Everything about this book is amazing.

Recommended!’ The Princess and the Pen, 5 stars ‘This book had me hooked from the start....and because my grandparents are currently in assisted-living facilities, Evelyn's time in her assisted-living resonated with my heart. I loved her sassy, snarky personality and being privileged to see the inner workings of her mind. And I loved the love letters between she and her husband during WWII. I am excited to read all of Goldring's works! This is the first book of hers I've read, and it won't be the last!’ The Book Distiller, 5 stars ‘This novel had me hooked from the very first page! I always enjoy delving into historical fiction novels and My Name is Eva is the perfect example of why! This riveting book time hops between the 1940’s, 1980’s and present day (2016) to tell the tale of Evelyn Taylor-Clarke’s life. Suzanne Goldring does a fantastic job with the pacing of this novel, I sometimes find historical fictions can get a little dry, but there wasn’t any parts that I felt lagged—love that! The storyline was incredibly moving and depth filled! Evelyn is a character that will definitely stay with me!’ Steph and Chris’s Book Review, 5 stars

Silver, Jasmine, Eva, and Selena had pretty much found success. Good careers, successful businesses, and large bank accounts. What they hadn't found was lasting marriages, fulfilling relationships, and soul healing. And learning to manage their emotions to do so was proving to be harder than gaining success. Silver didn't know what depression was until the day she couldn't get out of bed. Her life had pretty much been what she had envisioned until the day her husband announced that he was leaving her for another. It was all so confusing and conflicting. Would she ever be able to get past the anger, jealously, and fear to be whole again? Selena was no doubt a dime piece. She was beautiful. She had built a whole brand off her looks alone. Women admired her, and men wanted her, except the one man she wanted more than her good senses would allow. When would she learn where to draw the line when it came to pleasing another? Jasmine had pretty much lived her life by the good book. She went to college, married, built a home, and then had a child. Her life was perfect, and she had no problem with letting others know. What she didn't do was prepare herself for a daughter who would taint that perfect image. Just how was she supposed to get past her pride so she could help her child who needed her more than ever? Eva didn't like weakness, foolishness, or wastefulness. She knew her strengths, and being vulnerable wasn't one of them. She was tough, but she had a heart that she wanted to share with another. Ignoring her fears, she takes a chance at love, only to feel the familiar sting of rejection again. Did her success mean a life of loneliness? Journey with these four best friends as they shift through their emotions to gain the true knowledge of success.
