WITH LOVE ALWAYS MOM

Twenty sealed letters. One mysterious photograph. A journey to uncover a mother's secret life.

When twenty-two-year-old Emma Miller returns to her childhood home in Seattle after her mother's passing, she expects to find only silence and grief. Instead, tucked away in a dusty attic inside a worn wooden box, she discovers a voice from the past: twenty letters, one for each year of her life, written by her mother, Grace.

Alongside the letters is a faded photograph of a man standing by a river-a man Emma does not recognize, gazing at a horizon filled with longing.

As Emma breaks the seal on the first letter, she is swept into the heart-wrenching story of Grace's early years as a single mother fighting for survival in Chicago. But between the lines of maternal wisdom and unconditional love lies a shadow: a heartbreak Grace never spoke of and a secret she kept hidden to protect her daughter.

Driven by a need for the truth, Emma embarks on a cross-country journey from the rainy streets of Seattle to the bustling avenues of Chicago and New York. Accompanied by her childhood friend Liam, she retraces her mother's footsteps to uncover the identity of the man in the photograph-Daniel Hayes-and the reasons he was left behind.

What Emma finds will challenge everything she thought she knew about her family. It is a journey that will teach her that love is not just about presence, but about sacrifice, forgiveness, and the courage to move forward .

With Love, Always Mom is a poignant, emotional novel about the enduring power of a mother's love that transcends death. It is a story for any child who has ever missed their mother, and for every mother who has ever whispered a prayer for her child's future.
