The Finding Emma Series
A mother’s unbearable loss. A family’s unraveling secrets. The bestselling series that started it all — two full-length novels, plus three companion novellas that fill in the story between them.
Where It Begins
Finding Emma
Megan is the harried but happy stay-at-home mother of three little girls, living an ordinary life in a small town — until her youngest daughter, Emma, disappears on her third birthday.
Two years later, her obsession with finding Emma has distanced her from family and friends. Meanwhile, in a nearby town, Jack begins to question his wife’s secrecy about their adored granddaughter — until his and Megan’s worlds collide at the town carnival.
Emma’s Secret
For two years, Megan, Peter, and their daughters dreamed only of being reunited with Emma, kidnapped just before her third birthday. When she’s miraculously found living with an elderly couple, they’re hopeful her return will heal the family.
But Emma barely remembers them, and longs for the very people who took her. As bitterness and secrets pull the family apart, a chance encounter uncovers a truth that changes everything — again.
