With no one she can count on, Betty Jewel does the unthinkable: she takes out a want ad seeking a loving mother for her daughter. Meanwhile, on the other side of town, recently widowed Cassie Malone is an outspoken housewife insulated by her wealth and privileged white society.

But neither woman could have imagined the gifts they would find in each other, and in the sweet young girl they both love with all their hearts.
