When encouraged to give them up for adoption, she is devastated but recognizes she cant possibly keep them. Heart broken by her only choice, she releases them to two families who could give them a loving home, everything she is unable to provide. Why hadnt Jared, the babys father, written to her, called her, or answered her letters? Because Lucy flew to Brazil to stay with her aunt and uncle after graduation, Lucys mother never knew about Lucys twins. Not until Lucy returned home three years later did she discover the treachery of her mother. Feelings of betrayal consumed her as she discovers the tragic truths about her mothers sabotage to separate her from the unknowing father of her twins and the jealousy her mother felt toward Lucy. Everywhere she looked, she saw their smiling faces, only to discover that it is not really her children at all. Her heart cries out for them with a whispered promise that she will find them. Twenty-five years later, with her husband, Kent Nuggent, and their three teenage children, Lucy is more determined to find her twins. The dramatic turn of events in the lives of her children bring miracles that show her the way to find the twins and reunite with them. Lucy realizes that relationships are fragile yet so very important, requiring effort and courage to maintain them.
