A totally gripping, BRAND NEW heartbreaking read about love and families from Lisa Timoney, that readers of Jodi Picoult, Jojo Moyes, and Emma Robinson will love. 💔🏡What happens if Daddy dies? Who would I live with?
Katie loves her 6-year-old stepdaughter Maisie with all her heart. The time they spend together, the feel of the little girls hand in her own, means everything to her, especially after she discovers she and her husband, Liam, cant have children together.
But since Maisies mum died, shes mostly been living with her sister, Liams adult daughter, Olivia and the two have become inseparable. The problem is that Olivia hates her stepmother and refuses to accept her as part of their lives.
Katie wants nothing more than to step up in Maisies life, even to formally adopt her, so they can become the proper family shes always longed for. But Olivia cant let that happen, and when she meets the man of her dreams, she begins to believe that she alone can offer her sister the security she needs.
When tragedy strikes, the two women both want whats best for the girl they love more than life itself, but when their lives take another unexpected turn, they each discover quite how much they have to lose.
