A Powerful Novel From Tracie Peterson
"A child of my Own. Flesh of my flesh..." That is the deep yearning that fills Tess's heart. Despite years spend under a doctor's care and advances in medical technology, she and her husband have discovered their options have been exhausted, leaving them with arms empty, long-held dreams shattered.
A unique opportunity arises in the form of a young pregnant teen desperate to free herself from her misguided decisions. Drawn together by their mutual needs, Tess and Sherry see a solution in what the other offers. But what appears to be an ideal agreement soon tests the fragile threads of Tess's fledgling faith....
The answer is very different from what they were expecting....

Library Journal Review
Tess and Brad Holbrook tried every possible medical treatment in her quest to become pregnant, and everything failed. Reluctant to adopt at first, Tess soon realizes thatit is the only way she'll become a mother. Through a friend, the couple learns about Sherry Macomber, a pregnant teen who plans to give her baby up for adoption if she can find the appropriate parents. Tess and Brad invite Sherry into their home and begin an emotional roller coaster ride, for Tess and Sherry clash at every turn. When tragedy strikes, Tess finally opens her heart and listens to what God has been trying to tell her about her family all along. Peterson (Treasures of the North) examines an emotional issue with sensitivity and comes up with a surprising twist that fans will treasure. (c) Copyright 2010.
