Has anyone read this? I've just finished it and it was fantastic one of those books that stays with you after you've finished, and you just know you'll read again. 
It really made me think on so many levels and some of the scenes described are very painful. Iwon't say too much so as not to spoil the story for anyone. I guess it erxplores the fact that perhaps we are damaged emotionally for different reasons and in different ways, but ultimately love heals, if we let and learn to accept ourselves flaws and all.
This is the back cover blurb.........
KAMRYN MATIKA HAS NO RESPONSIBILITIES - ONE BIRTHDAY CARD WILL CHANGE THAT FOR EVER....
Best friends Kamryn Matika and Adele Brannon thought nothing could come between them - until Adele did the unthinkable and slept with Kamryn's fiance Nate. Worse still, she got pregnant and had his child. When Kamryn discovered the truth about their betrayal she vowed never to see any of them again.
Years later, Kamryn receives a letter from Adele asking her to visit he in hospital. Adele is dying and begs Kamryn to adopt her daughter Tegan. With a great job abd a hectic social life, the last thing Kamryn needs is a five year old to disrupt things. Especially not one who reminds her of Nate. But with no one else to take care of Tegan and Adele fading fast, does she have any other choice? So begins a difficult journey that leads Kamryn towards forgiveness, love, responsibility and ultimately a better understanding of herself.
