Any other family

Brown, Eleanor, 1973-2022
Books, Manuscripts
They look just like any other family but between the four children there are three sets of parents who committed to an open adoption of biological siblings, keeping the children connected after the death of their grandmother. Tabitha the planner of the group, is insistent that everything happens just so. Quiet single mother Ginger resists the forced togetherness, and newest mother Elizabeth is still reeling from going directly from failed fertility treatments into adopting a newborn. But when the three women receive a surprising call from their children's birth mother, announcing she is pregnant again and wants them to help her find an adoptive family for this child too, the delicate bonds they are still struggling to form threaten to collapse. As tensions start to rise on their joint family holiday, the three women reckon with their own feelings about what it means to be a mother and what they owe each other as a family.
