Perfect for you if...

You love stories about found family and second chances that don't shy away from the mess of loving broken people.
You appreciate quiet, character-driven narratives where healing happens slowly and feels earned rather than convenient.
You're drawn to books exploring what it means to be a parent when there's no legal guarantee you'll stay in a child's life.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer fast-paced plots with constant twists. This book moves deliberately, focusing on emotional growth over plot surprises.
You want romance as a primary thread. Nova's journey is about maternal love and self-discovery, not finding a partner.
You can't read about child abuse or parental neglect without needing significant distance from heavy content.

About this book

Nova Doubeck agrees to foster two children, drawing on her own experience of being adopted and raised by caring parents. Nine-year-old Henry and seven-year-old Bella present unexpected challenges: Henry shows signs of aggression linked to his abusive father, Egan Croy, while Bella is withdrawn and carries a tin box of treasures. Over time, Nova builds trust with both children, and they bring unexpected love and joy into her life. As Nova grows attached to Henry and Bella, she faces the difficult reality of their eventual departure. When Egan begins aggressively pursuing custody, Nova's protective instincts intensify. In her fight to protect the children, she uncovers secrets from their past and discovers deeper truths about herself and the meaning of family.
