A single misstep sparks an impossible bond. When six-year-old Reagan Sage, lost in a crowded park, spots soccer superstar Christen Press and mistakes her for the big sister she can't find, panic gives way to urgent kindness. Christen and her partner Tobin cradle Reagan's frightened sobs, launching a frantic search for her family through empty streets and unreturned phone calls. As dusk falls and her parents remain missing, the police step in-and Reagan is placed in protective custody. Yet even as official procedures unfold, Christen and Tobin find their thoughts obsessively returning to the frail little girl who clung to them as if they were her lifeline. What began as a chance encounter becomes a heart-shattering reckoning with love, loss, and responsibility. Driven by a fierce determination to rewrite Reagan's destiny, they navigate daunting bureaucracy and wrestle with their own fears-hoping against hope that the law will allow them to become the family she so desperately needs. In less than four months, an extraordinary journey transforms strangers into parents and in turn reshapes all their lives forever. A story of unexpected devotion, second chances, and the courage it takes to open your heart when it matters most.
