Interesting, Well Paced Novel.

This books begins with an unemployed actress who gets pregnant with her unemployed actor boyfriend. She decides to put her baby up for adoption after she moves home and splits up with her boyfriend. A married couple who lost their first child to SIDS adopts the baby. Two years later, circumstances change and the acting couple has reunited and hit it big. They decide they want their baby back and take legal steps to do so.As we all know, this book was taken out of the headlines in the newspapers. The author was smart and careful NOT to try to sway your sympathy too much one way or another. He didn't demonize either party but presented their side of the argument as fairly as he could. I really liked that.This book appealed to me as a mother, how would I feel in either situation. Can't say much about the ending (HATE it when people give it away) but I really enjoyed the book. Hope you will too.
