Présentation de l'éditeur
Paige has only a few vivid memories of her mother, who left when she was five. Now, leaving her father behind in Chicago for dreams of art school and marriage to an ambitious young doctor, she finds herself with a child of her own. But her mother's absence, and shameful memories of her past, make her doubt both her maternal ability and her sense of self-worth.
