Something's missing in her life-but could love be the piece that finally makes her whole?
Sixteen-year-old Olivia Jackson has always felt like she's caught between worlds. Adopted by loving white parents, the half-Black teen excels in school and on the track but struggles to feel truly complete. After a traumatic assault by her boyfriend and a shocking expulsion, her carefully balanced life spirals out of control.
Enter Lucas-a boy with a troubled past and a magnetic charm Olivia can't ignore. He's unlike anyone she's ever met, and the connection between them is both thrilling and terrifying. When Olivia opens up to him about her dream of finding her birth mother, Lucas becomes her unexpected ally. But when danger from her ex-boyfriend closes in, Olivia is forced to hit the road-with Lucas by her side-on a journey that could change everything.
As Olivia gets closer to uncovering the truth about her past, she must confront her deepest fears and decide if she's ready to let love and trust into her life. Will she find the healing she's been searching for-or will it all slip away?
Adopted is a heartfelt YA coming-of-age with a side of wholesome contemporary romance and the first book in the completed Adopted trilogy. If you like relatable characters, shocking revelations, and a journey of self-discovery, then you'll love Meggan Larson's unforgettable novel.
