About this listen

The 32nd fostering memoir from international bestseller Cathy Glass

Struggling to cope with three young children, Janie turns to experienced foster carer Cathy Glass. Helping the family each morning, Cathy soon uncovers how dangerous their situation has truly become.

Riley and his two little siblings, Jayden and Lola, are not safe at home.

With all three children in her care, will Cathy be able to rebuild their lives – and Janie’s?

Loved it.

Have been hanging out for this book as I’ve read all of hers twice over. It was a really good book and makes you realise how many lacking parents there are who just don’t get it and never will. Loved listening to the growth in Cathy’s family also

An absolutely great read.

This is a really sad story, it is very well written and read. I cannot express how much I love reading Cathy’s stories. They are just the best as they are all real life experiences. I highly recommend this book 🙂 Jessie J.

boring

bit disappointed with this story, it was uneventful and quite mundane. way too much general day to day stuff and no climax.
