In your own darkest hour, would you help a child in need?
When a teenage girl with haunted eyes enters Bec's world, she stirs something in Bec she thought she'd buried long ago.
Still reeling from the loss of her husband, Bec is barely keeping her life together. But there's something about Skye, motherless, wary and alone, that reaches into the shadows of Bec's past. Twenty years ago, she was that lost girl, grieving her twin brother and cut off from her parents after one terrible night. Now, with the threat of those same parents re-entering her life, Bec makes an impulsive decision: she offers Skye food, shelter and the promise of help.
When Bec's search for help brings Anna into their world, the connection feels almost fated. Anna has demons of her own. A past she's fought to bury and a brother's name she's desperate to clear.
Both women believe they know what's best for Skye. But as past and present collide, each will be forced to face truths they thought they'd left behind.
A completely heartbreaking family drama, like nothing you've ever read before! Order now!
