The Mother I Never Had - Paperback

It's tough enough for L.A. landscape designer Nate Cronin when his professor father, Jim, who raised him alone since birth, dies, leaving Nate an orphan at thirty years old. But when the provocative and mysterious Amy enters Nate's life soon after, it sends him on a devastating journey to unravel the truth about his past, the veracity of Amy's claims, and the history of the father he adored.
At the same time, Nate must come to terms with his commitment to his longtime girlfriend, Jennifer, a dance instructor whose patience with the resistant Nate frays as she attempts to help him navigate the psychological minefield set off by Amy's arrival.
The Mother I Never Had asks readers to consider what they would do if they found themselves faced with a parent they never knew existed-and if they could accept the secrets and lies that kept her away for a lifetime.
