Book Description
Lindsay is 40 and single when tragedy strikes. Diagnosed with stage 4, Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma cancer, her instinct is to right the wrongs in her life. Her unfortunate childhood with an alcoholic, verbally abusive mother drove her to break free in desperation at the age of 17. While working at a hotel along the beach on the East Coast, she met Harris Manning. He took her breath away and she gave herself to him in love. Though Harris never knew it, Lindsay found herself pregnant when he left her with no way to care for identical triplets on her own. When the triplets were five months old, she reconnected with an Amish couple—Katie and Roman Yoder—who were unable to have children. The Yoders adopted Amy and Jenna while Lindsay kept Phoebe. She couldn’t bear to give all three babies away. In the years that followed, Katie worked hard to keep her away from her adopted daughters. Lindsay worries if she dies from cancer, Phoebe will be alone. She wants to break the closed adoption agreement with Katie so that Phoebe will learn about her sisters, and she will be able to connect with her adopted daughters. Will Katie allow the secret to be revealed? Lindsay realizes she should tell Harris about being a father. How will he respond to this news, but more importantly, how will the triplets feel once they learn the truth about their birth?
