The gripping and heartbreaking second novel by the author of BA Book of the Month and LoveReading Debut of the Month Patience. She gave you her baby. Now she wants her back. Nineteen-year-old Michelle has had a tough life, to say the least. Then she gets pregnant. She is convinced she would be a terrible mother but having grown up in care, she cannot bring herself to subject her child to the same fate. Amelia and her husband have dreamed of having a family for years, but have lost all hope after the worst kind of tragedy. Then they are offered the chance to adopt baby Grace, and it feels like they finally have everything they' ve ever wanted. But then Michelle decides she wants her daughter back, and it' s up to the courts to decide. What is best for Grace - a mother' s love, or a stable home? Whatever the ruling, one thing is certain: neither woman' s life will ever be the same again. . . Praise for Victoria Scott: ' Beautiful. . . Heart-wrenching. A wonderful gem of a book' Eve Ainsworth, author of Duckling ' Warm and real and heart-breaking all at the same time. I loved it' Clare Swatman

' An extraordinary novel about love and hope and family and what happens in the space between the words. I adored it' Kirsten Hesketh, author of Another Us.

' Absorbing, poignant story of a family' s emotional rollercoaster in the aftermath of participating in a risky medical trial' * LoveReading *
