Publisher's summary

A sweet and hopeful novel about loss, connection, and the many ways to make a family from the bestselling author of The Other Family.

Single mother Roxy Novak works days at a dentist’s office and delivers food at night, making the best life she can for herself and her son, Aero. When her wealthy ex-husband decides to ask for full custody, telling her Aero will be better off living with him and his Instagram-famous new wife, Roxy is stunned and scared. How can she possibly get the money to fight back?

Meanwhile, Nora and Owen Finnegan have been trying to have a child for years without success. After their latest surrogate suffers a miscarriage, they start the search again—and find Roxy, who sees a chance to salvage her own dreams of family by fulfilling theirs.

But family is never simple, and neither are dreams. Nora, Owen, and Roxy hope that their surrogacy journey will lead them to what they want most in the world. All three will get more than they expected.

Critic reviews

“Told from alternating points of view, Nyhan’s fifth novel thoroughly charms, thanks to a lovable, late-blooming heroine who deserves a break. Readers will stay with her, hoping she gets one.”Booklist

Great Read!!

I may be biased, because Loretta Nyhan is my cousin, but she wrote another book and knocked it out of the park! She is an awesome writer, and comes up with these amazing well-rounded characters. I cannot wait for her next book!

Realistic dialog

This book has extremely realistic dialogue, interesting characters, and the story moves quickly. The moral dilemmas faced and how each character responded is also very realistic. I highly recommend
