J. T. Swan: Finding a Best Friend, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Jake has spent most of his life in the shadows. Struggling in school and emotionally scarred by his father, he clings to the safety of his mother. But he can't hide there forever. Brooke, just nineteen, is drowning in grief. Since losing her parents, she's been raising her fourteen-year-old brother, Nathan, while fighting depression and the constant fear that she's failing them both. When Jake and Brooke's paths cross, their unlikely friendship becomes a lifeline. For Jake, it's the first time he feels seen and valued. For Brooke, she doesn't have to carry everything alone. Grace, Jake's mother, has lived with fear for years. But as she mentors Brooke and supports Jake, she begins to believe in the fragile strength of found family, even when it demands risk. Finding a Best Friend is a contemporary family drama about trauma, resilience, and the courage to believe in second chances. It's a story of the families we inherit, the ones we build, and the friendships that make healing possible.
