by Robert WhitlowFor the attorneys at Cobb and Cobb, the pursuit of justice is about more than legal expertise; it&’s a family matter.David Cobb is not a typical lawyer—he&’s more interested in dispensing God&’s wisdom than pertinent legal advice. High-stakes litigation is way outside his comfort zone.For many years Zeke Caldwell has been concocting home remedies made from natural ingredients found in the coastal marshes near Wilmington, North Carolina. One of his remedies proved so effective that he patented it with the help of David&’s father. Now he suspects a big drug company has stolen his formula.

But his sister-in-law, Katelyn Cobb, is a rising star attorney in a prestigious Washington, DC, law firm. The courtroom is her second home. Could she help?

Her Russian emigre parents own Radost, the most exclusive nightclub in Manhattan, and they've devoted their lives to their daughter's happiness. But even they can't convince her of her own beauty--that will require Cameron Hawkes. He makes her feel special in a way no one else ever has. When Cameron and Kailey marry and have a child, Kailey believes they make a perfect family--a sophisticated entrepreneur husband who is a rising star, and an adorable baby girl. Still, Kailey's parents worry that Cameron isn't the man they would have chosen for her. And indeed, he isn't. For when Cameron's carefully constructed mask slips, it reveals a man who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Kailey flees, and when she does, she loses her baby daughter--forever, she believes--in an accident her husband engineers. But unknown to Kailey, now a lifetime away from her husband's evil, her daughter is alive. For years, Susannah Holland will wish for one thing above all else--a real family. Growing up in a foster home where she was never loved, Susannah vows she'll escape--and never rely on anyone but herself. Yet unbeknownst to her, her mother still longs for the daughter she thought she'd never see again. Cameron, Kailey, and Susannah will live separate lives, continents apart, little dreaming of the forces of fate waiting to reunite them.
