An article in a magazine takes Ruby Leander back ten years, to when she was a 19-year-old who made a shocking discovery at an Oklahoma rest stop. Now, Ruby learns the truth about what really happened that day and must make a decision that may cost her everything, and everyone, she loves.
An interesting and intriguing read, Ruby and her daughter Lark are two characters who have literally grown up together. But Ruby soon learns that "Finder's Keepers" isn't applicable to babies. She makes the hard choices and is forced to deal with the circumstances. It's in turn funny, heartbreaking, and heartwarming. And Ruby's decision as to how to get her daughter back is shocking. The chapters are short, some are literally less than one page, which normally I really like. But sometimes in this case, I felt like it was a distraction from the storyline.
I was not a fan of the ending. Ruby is a sympathetic character, but the ending left the whole story feeling unrealistic.
