Lips parted soundlessly. No one dared move. Even the air seemed…

Emma had already made a Father’s Day card… one that might expose the truth better than I ever could — and I wasn’t about to stop her. Ever since our…

My husband vowed he’d handle absolutely everything if I agreed to give him a child. He promised I wouldn’t have to put my career on hold. But once the twins arrived, suddenly I was “unreasonable” for wanting to continue the job that financially supported our home. He insisted I quit — and I said yes… but only under one condition.

On my eighteenth birthday, my life didn’t change because of some epic party or big “now I’m an adult” realization.
It changed because of a cardboard box. Plain. Taped shut. My name written in careful cursive. It was from my mother. Laurie. The woman who had disappeared when I was nine months old.
