Beth McBride's seven year old son, Dylan, is taken from her and placed with Ally Fielding's family for 3 months. Beth is a single mom who adores her son and is tuned into his every need. Dylan does not speak but Beth and he communicate just fine. Ally has two teenage children, Josh who is in high school, and Emma who just started at Harvard. When Dylan comes to love with the Fieldings, Ally tries to balance his needs with those of her family. Beth sees Ally as a mom who has it all together, although that is not the case. The story follows Beth, who is trying to get her son back, and Ally who finds her life not so perfect. ( ) A single mother struggling to make ends meet is having a hard time with her special needs son. A typical temper tantrum in the local CVS changes their whole world and she is forced to give him to a foster family while she is forced to go to counseling. She resists at first, but realizes sometimes you do what you have to do, especially if it means getting your child back. You soon learn the family who take him in are far from perfect themselves, although they appear to be. The mom soon starts questioning if he would be better off with his foster family because there is no way she could ever provide him with what they do, but those things are material and what matters the most is love. Mom gains the support system she's never had in the most unlikeliest of places, and it makes for a fantastic woman's drama, if you are into this kind of genre. I thorougly enjoyed this book! Thank you NetGalley for another fantastic find! ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Mother-of-two, Ally has always dreamed of fostering--it feels like her chance to give back when she has been so lucky in life. But when seven-year-old Dylan joins her family in their big, spacious, suburban home, Ally isn't prepared for the responsibility--or for the love--she will feel for him. Life with Dylan isn't easy though. He refuses to speak and Ally finds herself only able to guess what his needs might be. And, as her family feels the impact of his arrival, she is forced to question whether she really is a good enough parent to help another woman's child. Dylan's mother, Beth, then begins her fight to reclaim the son who she says is her whole world. With everything at stake for this small, silent, beautiful boy--which mother can truly give Dylan the love, the security, and the home he deserves? Ally knows her life could never be the same again without Dylan in it. But would she really consider letting a child be taken from his own mother forever? No library descriptions found. |
