Overview

Prominent New York acquisitions attorney Courtney Wilhelm had her entire life carefully planned…or so she thought. When Courtney’s half sister, Marissa, is found dead from an apparent overdose, Courtney assumes guardianship of Marissa’s daughter, Jade. Courtney knows nothing of children and struggles to find balance as the custodian of a minor, while trying to maintain a high level of expertise expected by her clients and the firm.

When she is confronted by Jade’s new teacher Lauren McCallum, sparks fly in more ways than one. Can Courtney let go of the life she has planned so meticulously—and clings to so stubbornly— to have the life with Jade and Lauren that awaits her? Or will the fear of failure keep her from the love and happiness she didn’t even know she wanted?
