Publisher Description
The Sunday Times Bestseller
At just ten years old, Kirsty has already suffered a lifetime of heartache and suffering. Neglected by her teenage mother and taken into care, Kirsty thought she had found her forever family when she is fostered by Pat and Mike, who she comes to see as her real mum and dad. But when Pat has a heart attack and collapses in front of her, Kirsty's foster family say it's all her fault. They blame her temper tantrums for putting Pat under stress and they don't want Kirsty in their lives anymore.
Kirsty is still reeling from this rejection when she comes to live with foster carer Maggie Hartley. She acts out, smashing up Maggie's home and even threatens to hurt the baby boy Maggie has fostered since birth. Social Services must take Kirsty's threat seriously and Maggie is forced to choose between eight-month-old Ryan, who she's grown to love, or angry Kirsty, who will most likely end up in a children's home if Maggie can no longer care for her. Maggie is in an impossible position, one that calls in to question her decision to become a foster carer in the first place...
A true story of hope from Sunday Times bestselling author Maggie Hartley, a foster carer for over 20 years.

Love your books
I’m rereading your books while waiting for your new one to come out . I have to say that I blame the parents for her behavior. They had her since she was a baby so if she was a spoiled child they did it , then to get upset and then decide they can’t deal with her . I feel sorry for her , not them or their daughters.
Enjoyed the story
I really enjoyed reading this book. So much admiration for Maggie and her foster care work.
