My water isn't supposed to break while there's a storm raging, when my husband isn't on the island, and as the power flickers out. Darkness covers the cabin as I cling to my belly. I never imagined it happening like this.
Trained as a midwife, I'm confident I can deliver my daughter.

I look at her, and I see her, and I know her. I've always known her.
She's perfect. Sweat and tears streak as my face I kiss her over and over again. Reaching for my bag of midwifery supplies, I wipe her nose and press her tiny body to my chest.
I fall asleep with her in my arms.

When I wake, my husband is home, the lights are back on - but the baby he's holding - it's not mine.
I'm not crazy.
I gave birth to a girl, and that baby in his arms is a boy.
He's not my baby.
You won't want to put this down until you find the shocking truth about what happened.
Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Jeneva Rose, Colleen Hoover and Keri Beevis.
