Sadie spent twelve years watching other kids get chosen-while her real family lived in comfort without her. When a social worker uncovers the oversight that kept her in foster care, she's sent back to the father who lost her through a bureaucratic error, and the four brothers who never stopped missing her.
But returning doesn't erase abandonment.
Sadie is furious. Her brothers are relieved but resentful.
And her father carries a guilt that threatens to break them all.
Home is a battlefield of memories and unspoken blame, and forgiveness is not guaranteed.
Yet beneath the anger lies love, waiting-unsteady, uncertain, but still alive.
Healing takes time. Trust takes longer.
But after everything, Sadie may finally learn what it means to be wanted.
