Two women. Carly & Tabitha. Both have suffered life-altering events that have left them both traumatically damaged.

Carly Sloan’s life was perfect until the night her security and innocence was torn from her. The vast repercussions from that horrific night threaten to destroy her stability and her chances for a happily ever after. Kyle Finnegan comes into Carly’s life at the height of her turmoil. Can he help her find what she desires most?

Tabitha Fletcher, on the other hand, has suffered from a very young age. She has been hiding from her past, which was full of abuse, loss and turmoil. She has been so brutally damaged that she has very little hope of redemption. The revolving door of men only leads her deeper into misery.

What circumstance brings these two women together unexpectedly and can they help each other heal? And will they each find what they need?

Redemption.

Love.

Family.

Dear Emily,

How do I start off a letter to a child I have yet to meet?

A child that has always been in our hearts?

A child that is meant for our family?

Your Daddy and I cannot wait for the moment we are able to hold you in our arms for the first time. To lay our eyes on your perfect face, eyes, toes. To breathe in the essence of a new baby, swirling scents of powder and linen.

We cannot wait to feel your beating heart against our chests and to listen to your slow and steady breaths.

To hear your soft baby noises.

To soothe your crying.

We have always dreamed of you, Emily. We’ve dreamed that someday our family would be blessed with a child.

We are now so close to realizing this dream. Our new family is within reach.

So very close.

We are now hoping, waiting, praying.

Love and kisses,

Momma & Daddy

My eyes are glistening with tears as I scrawl my signature at the bottom of the letter, touch my fingers to my lips, press them onto her name and close my journal. I look over to my left where Kyle is softly snoring, sleeping soundly. I mouth the words “I love you” to him, touch his back lightly, put my journal in my night table drawer and turn out the soft light by my bedside. I curl my body into his, tuck my head into his chest and hold on tight.

I love this man with all that I am and I love the father that he is going to be.

My heart is full of promise and hope.
