Lily is five years old, with a giggle that lights up every room and a wild imagination that turns hospital beds into pirate ships. But everything changes the day she learns a word far too big for someone her age: cancer. As her world fills with doctors, needles, and treatments, one thing remains constant-her dad's promise: "You're going to be okay, Lily. I promise."

Promise is a heartfelt story about the unshakable bond between a father and daughter, and the weight of words spoken in love. Lily's dad clings fiercely to his vow, doing everything in his power to keep hope alive, even when the odds seem stacked against them. Her mother struggles to hold the family together, balancing fear and hope, while Lily bravely faces each day with the innocence and curiosity only a child can have.

Told with tenderness and honesty, Promise captures the moments that matter-whispers in the dark, bedtime stories that become lifelines, and small victories that mean everything. It's a journey of laughter and heartbreak, where love fights to fill the spaces that fear leaves behind.

For readers of Room and The Fault in Our Stars, Promise is an unforgettable story of hope, resilience, and the promises we make to the people we love most-even when we're not sure we can keep them.
