My last foster mom - A novella
28 parts Complete Family are those we pick along the way.
Cynthia is bound to learn this lesson the hard way. Raised in the Foster system, and recently widowed, she finds herself in the very difficult situation of raising her six-years-old daughter, her one and only driving force, without any kind of support.
But this is no small feat. Bills pile up in her house, and day after day it gets increasingly hard to get as much as a decent meal on her table. If this keeps up, Cynthia risks even losing her daughter.
It's Mathilde Royston, a difficult and lonely old woman, the one giving Cynthia the chance she so desperately needs. Although eccentric and short-tempered, Mathilde's heart isn't carved from stone, and though she likes to keep others away, she can't help but warm up for the witty six-year-old Jeanne, thus setting up the foundations in which this unlikely trio will learn the most important lesson of their lives: nothing beats the bond of a family, not even if isn't blood-related.
