The gripping and heartbreaking second novel by the author of BA Book of the Month and LoveReading Debut of the Month Patience.

She gave you her baby. Now she wants her back.

When nineteen-year-old Michelle gets pregnant she’s convinced she’ll be a terrible mother. Having grown up in care, she cannot subject her child to the same fate. Instead, she puts her up for adoption.

Amelia has always dreamed of being a mum, but gave up hope after a devastating loss. When she’s offered the chance to adopt baby Grace, it feels like all her dreams have come true.

But then Michelle decides she wants her daughter back, and it’s up to the courts to decide. What is better for Grace – a mother’s love, or a stable home?

Praise for Grace:

'Beautiful... Heart-wrenching. A wonderful gem of a book' Eve Ainsworth, author of Duckling

'Warm and real and heart-breaking all at the same time. I loved it' Clare Swatman
