Birds on a wire : a novel / Katie Powner.
"When her newborn son, Providence, is taken by CPS, eighteen-year-old Bri Marshall is determined to do whatever it requires to get him back-with or without Providence's father. But hurdles like drug addiction complicate the process. Bri never expected to sink this low. What will it take to hold her baby in her arms again? Thirty-nine-year-old Laura Gambler, facing the big 4-0, is managing new challenges with her own children when she's asked to take in baby Providence. She could never have imagined the chain of events that agreeing to foster would set in motion-or the carefully buried pain from her past it would drag back to the surface. Both women wrestle with doubts about the future and their ability to parent Providence, even as their love for him grows stronger every day. As their lives become irrevocably intertwined, the two very different women face the same impossible question: Who is the best mother for Providence?"-- Provided by publisher.
