After years of trying to have a baby.Angela DeSaria is left with too many broken dreams and a ruined marriage. Following a painful divorce, she moves back to her hometown and rejoins her family. In the small town of West End, where life falls and rises like the tide. Angie finds a man who once again opens her heart to love-and a troubled girl who will change her life.
Lauren R. lives in a bad part of town with a mother who cares more about her next drink than about her daughter. Angie sees something special in Lauren. They form a quick bond-and when Lauren is abandoned by her mother. Angie offers the girl a place to stay. But nothing could have prepared Angie for the far-reaching repercussions of this act of kindness-and the emotional revelations about what it means to be a family.
