One Small Thing

From the national bestselling author of When You Go Away comes a novel about infertility, parenthood, letting go of expectations-and finding unexpected joy…

At 28, Avery Tacconi has the career of her dreams, a husband she adores, and a beautiful suburban California home. She has all she ever wanted except for one small thing…a baby. And after two years of unsuccessful fertility treatments, hope is running thin.

Then her husband, Dan, discovers he has a ten-year-old son he never knew about. With the boy’s mother now deceased, Dan is the new rightful guardian. He’s anxious to bring his son into their life. But for Avery, this child is a constant reminder of her own inability to conceive-and of Dan’s secret past, a sordid life she knew nothing about until now. Only when Avery is able to open her heart to all of life’s possibilities will she begin to appreciate her imperfect, unexpected family for what it truly is: a perfect blessing.
