Story

The story

For three years, Yvonne has endured fertility injections and endless doctors' visits, hoping to give her husband Tim a child. When Tim brings home an adopted baby girl named Cece, he calls her their own, yet Cece never speaks a word, and Yvonne's marriage remains cold and distant.

One day, Yvonne overhears Cece speaking on a video call to Zoe Wilson, Tim's true love, who left him at the altar years ago. As Zoe prepares to return, Yvonne learns that Cece is Zoe's daughter, and that Tim has arranged for Zoe, a neurological rehabilitation expert, to treat the child. Confronting Tim, Yvonne demands to know the truth about Cece and about the place Zoe still holds in his heart.

Opening excerpt

I was getting my 18th fertility injection, but my husband snatched the syringe away from me. "That thing's tormented you for three years. I heard we'll get a child of our own if we adopt a kid. Maybe we can go with that."

He brought home an adorable baby girl that afternoon and called her Cece.
