Nico Conti became my world-ten years later, he shattered my heart. He took away the light, so I learned to see in the dark. Now he's come back, trying to explain away his absence and pick up where we left off. He doesn't understand everything's changed. I'm not the same girl he left behind, but he doesn't seem to care. He wants all of me. That's more than I'm willing to give.NicoThey say you don't know what you've lost until it's gone, but that wasn't true. I knew exactly how devastating it would be to lose Sofia, and I did it anyway. I thought our separation would be permanent, but I've suddenly been forced back into her life. Walking away once was hard enough; I'm not strong enough to stay away again. Now that I've seen her, tasted her, I have to make her mine. Seven years ago, I made the biggest mistake of my life.I plan to do everything in my power to correct that mistake, even if it means coming clean about the past. There's a chance the secrets I carry will push her further away, but that's a risk I'll have to take. Sofia Genovese was made for me, and I'm determined to win her back.

Book Description
In the tradition of The Promise of a Pencil and Kisses from Katie comes an inspirational memoir by the founder of Comfort Cases about his turbulent childhood in the foster care system and the countless obstacles and discrimination he endured in adopting his four children. Rob Scheer never thought that he would be living the life he is now. He’s happily married to his partner and love of his life, he’s the father of four beautiful children, and he’s the founder of an organization that makes life better for thousands of children in the foster care system. But life wasn’t always like this. Growing up in an abusive household before his placement in foster care, Rob had all the odds stacked against him. Kicked out of his foster family’s home within weeks after turning eighteen—with a year left of high school to go—he had to resort to sleeping in his car and in public bathrooms. He suffered from drug addiction and battled with depression, never knowing when his next meal would be or where he would sleep at night. But by true perseverance, he was able to find his own path and achieve his wildest dreams. “A heartwarming, hopeful memoir brimming with humanitarianism and compassion” (Kirkus Reviews), Rob’s story provides a glimpse into what it’s like to grow up in the foster care system, and sheds necessary light on the children who are often treated without dignity. Both a timely call to action and a courageous and candid account of life in the foster care system, A Forever Family ultimately leaves you with one message: one person can make a difference.
