Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher, for granting my request to read this e-ARC and provide my honest opinions.

The last book I read was really sad and very emotional, so definitely it spilled over to this as well. Gemma Jones' life is one that was definitely heartbreaking. She had a child at sixteen, didn't know who the dad was, had to go through it all without a solid support system, and still had to give the baby away😪. Despite all the hardship she faced, she still made something out of herself.

For me, Gemma giving her baby away was a very beautiful thing for her to do. Even at the age of sixteen, she thought and knew that raising her baby would be nearly impossible as she was still a child herself. Her mom would have been of help, but being an addict and her mood flaring up all the time wasn't the best for Gemma and her baby. Even if it was the right thing to do, it still hurt!

I tried my best not to cry!!  I am so glad for all the support that has come Gemma's way. People who have decided to stick with her through thick and thin! And to everybody who has ever fostered a child, cheers!!

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
