Publisher's Synopsis
★★★★★ 2021 NEXT GENERATION INDIE BOOK AWARD WINNER!! ★★★★★
A lonely widower, an estranged daughter, a damaged granddaughter, and their second chance at being a family.
Titus Conrad doesn't know how he can fulfill his promise to his dying wife to take care of his grown daughter, Angel, especially when she refuses to have anything to do with him.
After his wife dies, Titus, sells his home in town and buys an old farmhouse in the country in need of repair. He wants to lose himself in fixing the house and bury his failure as a husband and father. His plan works until he is sucked into Angel's dysfunctional world when she is arrested for drug possession and later overdoses. Who's going to take care of Angel's eleven-year-old daughter, Maddie, when Child Welfare steps in?
Although Angel doesn't want her father involved at all, he's the only option. Titus is unprepared and ill-equipped to care for his troubled granddaughter and deal with Angel's ongoing hatred toward him. He wants to wash his hands of both. When he turns to Jo, his wife's best friend, for help, he opens a Pandora's box of personal memories and emotions. If he is to repair his relationship with Angel and be a loving grandfather to Maddie, he must first deal with his own broken past.
When Maddie reveals a terrible secret, Titus is given a second chance to do what's right for those he loves even though it may mean losing any chance of a restored relationship with his daughter.
