Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate

4.0

---

Very readable women's fiction about the nightmarish tales of children being stolen from families, bought, and sold at the Tennessee Children's Home Society in Memphis. Rill's siblings are snatched off their Mississippi river boat when their mother is in Memphis having another baby. Years later, a senator's daughter's chance encounter at a nursing home leads to seeing her grandmother in a photograph with other women who look like siblings. Secrets emerge. Quick and easy read!
