Although I enjoyed this novel, I struggled to connect with the characters or their story. I guess the romantic in me puts weight on nurturing the relationship along with the journey to conceive, rather than forgetting the person that made you want to conceive in the first place. However, I have never been in that situation so I don't feel as if I have a great deal of relevant input.

This was an enlightening, interesting, and enjoyable story of Catriona Wyatt (Black) and her husband, Dominic Wyatt and their
relationship before, during and after undergoing IVF.

The story is told from Cat's point of view and describes the first time she and Dom met and their history together, dating, developing and establishing distinguished careers, marriage and the decision to have a baby.

Thankfully my family genes are fertile and nature blessed us with children. Dom and Cat were not so fortunate and had to undergo lots of tests and procedures, taking away much of the joy, spontaneity and intimacy of their sex together.

Diane Chandler's first novel, The Road to Donetsk, won The People's Book Prize for Fiction 2016. Moondance is her second novel, and I enjoyed getting to know the characters and how they interacted with each other. I liked Dom, Cat, and even Jackie, Cat's best friend and Billy, Cat's brother.

Special thanks to NetGalley, Blackbird Books and Diane Chandler for providing me with a digital ARC of Moondance: IVF Could Create A Baby But Could It Also Destroy A Marriage? to read and write an honest review.

My rating for Moondance is a solid 4 stars.

This book goes through the emotions of a couple in their attempts to get pregnant. For some this is easy, but it's more common for women to wait, and sometimes that causes some problems. This was a good book that I'd recommend.
