A Family, but not Instantly!
Pearl is a grieving mom and widow. Henry is a homeless man who lived the nightmare of being unwanted and passed around to numerous foster families while growing up. Pastor Thomas is a recent transplant from the West Coast. A new-born baby, Ivy, is abandoned in the woods, and left to die.
Henry finds Ivy and wants to keep her a secret so she doesn’t live the life he had. Pearl wants to help Henry, but he is afraid she will discover Ivy. Yet how will he take care of Ivy without help while he tries to earn money? Will Pearl keep his secret?
The pastor discovers Henry trying to take baby supplies from the church. How can Henry convince him he is not a thief, but keep quiet about Ivy’s existence?
Fast forward a number of years, and the adult Ivy flees an abusive relationship to return to her hometown. She comes to clean out her grandmother’s home, but also hopes to find answers about her biological mother–and mysteries in her life. 
All of these people’s lives become intertwined because of a baby, and create a story you will not want to put down. This 5-plus star tale will grab your emotions, and not let you go until the last page. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys clean, well-written stories.
