Will You Love Me? is the story of Cathy’s adopted daughter, Lucy, who arrived as a foster child and stayed for good. Couldn’t put the book down! I love Cathy Glass’ work and this was no different. A really personal memoir and all the more touching as Lucy features in other books too. In the other books I'd read, Cathy's own children were a lot younger and it was nice to read about them as adults and be updated on their lives.

Will You Love Me?: The story of my adopted daughter Lucy

When in junior high and high school (I reside in Ontario, Canada), my mom was also a foster parent to a very abused brother and sister. I can still recall some of the trauma they endured at the hands of their parents, which was quite bad to say the least. Any issues with the book list you are seeing? Or is there an author or series we don’t have? Let me know! Lucy was born to a single parent who had herself been abused and neglected for most of her childhood. Lucy’s mother couldn’t cope with a baby and Lucy was neglected right from the beginning. Despite concerns being raised by her teachers and other adults Lucy wasn’t taken into permanent foster care until she was eight years old. But even then her problems weren’t over. As she was moved from one foster home to another she became increasingly distressed. I have three children, two birth children and one adopted child. When I left school I held a clerical position in the civil service, which I left to start a family. At the same time I became a foster carer, the inspiration for much of my writing. I have been a foster carer for over 25 years. I have a degree in education and psychology which I was awarded as a mature student. My true-life stories show the suffering and courage of some of the most vulnerable children in our society and have world-wide appeal. My books are also used by trainers and practitioners, working in childcare and child protection.

Summary

Already looking forward to your next book. I am reading your Lisa Stone books at the moment and enjoying them..." Publication was in 2020 and the story is set in the very recent past (obvious from the first few sentences). It's a family drama, and some people would probably describe it as "gritty". It's not the kind of thing I would ever choose to read for pleasure, but many people do, and for them this would probably be a treat.
