Jumping to Conclusions by Sarah Challis is a heartfelt contemporary fiction novel set against the charming backdrop of a rural English village. Blending family drama with community intrigue, this engaging story follows point-to-point jockey Jess Haddon as she navigates the challenges of single motherhood, small-town gossip, and long-buried secrets. At the centre of it all is Jess’s young daughter, Izzy, whose paternity has remained a carefully guarded secret — much to the fascination of the tight-knit Dorset community.
Rumours have long hinted that the charismatic Johnnie Bearsden, who left for America years earlier, might be Izzy’s father. Jess’s mother, Belinda, has clung to this suspicion, convinced the truth will one day surface. When Johnnie unexpectedly returns to the area, old emotions and whispered stories quickly resurface, threatening to unravel lives and relationships. Sarah Challis skilfully captures the tension of unresolved pasts colliding with present realities, in a story of love, loyalty, and the consequences of silence.
Perfect for readers who enjoy contemporary women’s fiction with strong emotional themes, Jumping to Conclusions is a poignant exploration of family secrets and the resilience required to face the truth.
