The Things We Do For Love — Kristin Hannah

After years of trying to have a baby, Angela DeSaria is left with too many broken dreams and a ruined marriage. Following a painful divorce, she moves back to her hometown and rejoins her loud, loving, slightly crazy family. In the small Northwest town of West End, where life rises and falls like the tides, Angie finds a man who once again opens her heart to love... and a troubled girl who will change her life.

Lauren Ribido lives in a bad part of town with a mother who cares more about her next drink than about her daughter. Angie sees something special in Lauren. They form a quick bond - and when Lauren is abandoned by her mother, Angie offers the girl a place to stay. But nothing could have prepared Angie for the far-reaching repercussions of this act of kindness - and the emotional revelations about what it means to be a family.
