Discover the top 10 bestselling Cornish Midwives series!

Midwife Jess knows she’ll never have a baby of her own, but she’s determined to still be a mum.

So Jess decides to foster, providing love and support for children who desperately need it – something Jess never had as a child when she was in foster care.

Jess loves caring for the precious babies who come into her life, but letting them go again breaks her heart every time - can she really be a mum after all?

But then Jess finds a surprise on her doorstep – a newborn baby! As the search for the missing mum begins, Jess cares for the precious babe day and night. She desperately wants to reunite mum and baby, but knows that when the day comes, her own heart will shatter.

A heartwarming story from bestselling author Jo Bartlett, perfect for fans of Jessica Redland, Holly Martin and Heidi Swain.
