Sadie spent twelve years watching other kids get chosen-while her real family lived in comfort without her. When a social worker uncovers the oversight that kept her in foster care, she's sent back to the father who lost her through a bureaucratic error, and the four brothers who never stopped missing her.
But returning doesn't erase abandonment.
Sadie is furious. Her brothers are relieved but resentful.
And her father carries a guilt that threatens to break them all.
Home is a battlefield of memories and unspoken blame, and forgiveness is not guaranteed.
Yet beneath the anger lies love, waiting-unsteady, uncertain, but still alive.
Healing takes time. Trust takes longer.
But after everything, Sadie may finally learn what it means to be wanted.

Beautiful, meaningful lines
If my collection inspires even one person, it would make me delighted knowing that it made a difference. I always had a thing for nice quotes. I used to write them even at a young age. Whenever I see a nice line - be it from a book, celebrity or some other unpopular sources, I feel amazed by them, and then lately, I started writing them down somewhere so as not to forget. Now and then a beautiful line would just pop in my mind, and if I don't have the means to write immediately, I would just try to memorize until I put it down. I write quotes anywhere, if I think that I am going to forget. They are just scattered in places so much so that I feel the urge to bring them together. What's better than to bind them in a book? P.S. except the quotes that are from revealations, i.e. the Qur'an and Sunnah, there are always room for errors in human opinions, so I recommend the readers to use their own sense of judgment as well.
