About this audiobook
A gift from the heart is the best gift of all…
When Marissa Crawford and her husband Brad decide to start a family, Marissa has serious doubts about her ability to be a good mother—she was raised by one of the worst. Torn between telling Brad the truth and hoping she doesn’t get pregnant, Marissa’s life is completely upended when a baby girl is left in a basket on the front porch of her large home in Maine. Caring for the baby given specifically to Brad and her, Marissa must decide what her role in life is all about. Attempting to overcome her past, she’s faced with agonizing decisions. As she opens her heart to those who need her, she is challenged in unexpected ways and discovers a joy greater than she’s ever known.
A family story with heart!
