Beneath the Surface

By S.J. Gibbs

Caroline Glenn has done everything right-or so it seems. With a successful career and a promising relationship with Max, her life appears perfectly aligned. But when the families gather for dinner, a single evening upends it all. Beatrice Low, Max's fiercely unfiltered mother, questions Caroline's choices with surgical precision, cracking open the foundation of her carefully planned future.
As old wounds and long-buried truths surface-Max's strained relationship with his mother, Martha's quiet sacrifices, and secrets from Max's past-Caroline begins to unravel the life she thought she wanted. Faced with the weight of family expectations and the complexities of love, she makes a bold decision to walk away.
In the aftermath, Caroline embarks on a journey of rediscovery, shaped by the women who came before her and the possibilities that lie ahead. From conferences to new cities, from heartbreak to clarity, she learns that beneath the surface of every choice lies a deeper truth-and the freedom to redefine happiness on her own terms.
Beneath the Surface is a stirring novel about love, legacy, and the courage to choose yourself.
