Anna never had a real family. She never needed one.
But when she meets her birth mother, Marlene, everything changes - because the same day, she learns she's going to have a baby of her own.
Now Anna's hurled headfirst into a new family, whether she wants it or not. At last, Marlene has a chance to become the mother she never was. She's so close, she can practically taste it.
And nothing - or more accurately, no one - will stand in her way.
