This book really tugs at the heart strings and remains in the reader's thoughts long after finishing reading it.
Sarah and Phil and their son James, love their severely disabled daughter, Lauren. For the past 15 years their lives have been a struggle - caring for Lauren has always been their main priority. However a simple question about Lauren's blood group reveals that she is not their biological daughter. Two sets of parents left the maternity hospital with the wrong babies 15 years ago.
The thoughts and emotions of all the principal members of both families are revealed as they all try to resolve how the discovery of the mix up will affect the two girls, Lauren and Rosie, and both their families in the future.
A very poignant and thoughtful book with no solution that is totally satisfying for everyone.
