Kathi Beattie has built her world on love and stability. But when her adopted teenage son, Jake, learns the truth about his birth mother, his anger sends shockwaves through the close-knit family Kathi holds so dear.
Just when Kathi thinks she's lost her son to the secrets of his past, she discovers that her own family harbours long-buried secrets. Ones that could shatter everything she believes about herself.
As mother and son embark on parallel emotional journeys, the boundaries of family, forgiveness, and second chances are tested in ways neither could have imagined.
Set in a small Scottish town, Belonging is a heartfelt, contemporary women's fiction novel about adoption, motherhood, family secrets, and the search for identity and healing. Perfect for book club readers and fans of Amanda Prowse or Leah Mercer.
