Excerpt:

"Everyone seemed so kind and they really were like a family. The only one who was a little rough around the edges was Jacqueline whom they called Jac for short. I was going to have to prove to her that I was worthy of being in her kitchen, but after that I think she would be just fine. I felt a glimmer of happiness for the first time in two weeks. I realized that I had not even smiled in that amount of time. But now things were different. I barely knew these people and yet I felt closer to them as a family than I did to my own family!"
