About this book
A mother's worst nightmare becomes a glimmer of hope when Dana finally tracks down her son, stolen from her over a decade ago—only to discover he's grown into a boy who knows nothing of her, raised by his protective uncle Nolan. With her heart shattered all over again, Dana must navigate the impossible: fighting for the child she never stopped loving while grappling with the reality that he has a family who loves him just as fiercely. As Dana and Nolan clash over what's best for the boy caught between them, an unexpected connection begins to form, forcing them both to question what family truly means and whether love has room enough for everyone. This emotional, heartfelt story will have you rooting for every character, even as your heart breaks with Dana's impossible choice.
