Amazon bestseller for books on Adoption and ranked top 10 for books on Parenting! (Amazon.com 3/23/20) 

Ranked #35 out of 2.2K memoirs, #5 for Foster Care and #5 for Special Needs books! (WattPad 9/18/19) 


When an adoptive mother is presented with a foster child that doesn’t fit the description, quick-thinking helps her navigate a situation which was set up to fail. Faced with either turning her back on the child or turning to God for help, she fights for what she believes to be right.

Janelle Molony opens her heart to the reader with an authentic and relatable tale of a couple doing everything they can to help their foster son find his place in the world through faith, hope, and acceptance.

The memoir challenges readers to dig deep within themselves and ask if they have what it takes to raise a child with a harrowing past. 

It’s a heavy story told in a light voice, from one mother’s heart to another.

The quick read feels like a cross between Tiger Mom and The Boy Who Was Raised As A Dog. Firm, but loving truths guide readers through social issues including racism, sexuality, and mental health.

There are no how-to’s for mending broken hearts outside of strong faith and a whole lot of personal grit.
