Publisher's Summary

LaDean Cox wanted to live, marry Bailey Hardcastle and raise her three children with him. Love beckoned her but her guilt and sorrow were too heavy. She chose instead to sacrifice her life to give her children a better future. 

Her three children, Tommy, Bradley and Hazel were living with Jake and Gloriana Pennington-Casey. When LaDean signed away her parental rights making them the guardians of her children, she knew she could leave the burden of her life behind without any guilt.  

Will the sins of the father be meted out to the children of LaDean and Cyrus Cox? Will their new parents, Jake and Glory Pennington-Casey be able to help them? Will these children, especially Bradley, live in fear for the rest of their lives? Will their father’s guilt taint the possibilities for their futures? Will a rabid bobcat destroy the children’s tenuous hold on the possibility of a better life?   

Can adoption save these orphans from lives of fear and loathing and transform their lives to lives of love and belonging? The battle for the future of the three children and the adults surrounding them is at stake.
