Story

The story

In 1983, Joy Foster learns that her birth parents, Philip York and Angela York, have found her after years of separation caused by an earthquake. She agrees to leave the country and join them, but asks for two weeks to settle her affairs with the Foster family, who adopted her as a child.

For years, Joy's adopted brother Samuel was the one who truly raised her, and she fell in love with him. When her best friend Yelena Jones revealed her secret, Samuel destroyed her diary in fury and soon announced his engagement to Yelena. Now Joy watches him dote on Yelena while his parents eagerly plan the wedding, feeling like an outsider in the only home she has known.

As Joy prepares to leave, she must decide whether to tell Samuel she is going, and whether she can truly give up the love she has carried for him.
