We Grow Together

📖 The Scoop

Teenagers. Alcohol. A bonfire. What could go wrong?

Too many things if you're Riley Hamilton. Drinking for the first time ever, on Christmas Eve, leaves her too inebriated to go home on time, so she goes back to her boyfriend, Kyle Green's place to sober up. They fool around, going further than they ever have before. Then, much to Riley’s surprise, Kyle breaks up with her before school starts back after winter break.

Six weeks later, a missing period and the weight of the world rests on Riley's shoulders. She has to sneak around Kyle's new girlfriend to tell him about the positive pregnancy test. He doesn’t consider the problem his, or even theirs, and demands that she figures out what to do by herself.

♥ Tyler and Ella don’t want Riley to make a choice she’ll regret, so they offer the opportunity for a different outcome. Adoption. Married, and a few years older than we left them in Still With Us, they volunteer to raise Riley’s baby as their own. ♥

We Grow Together is a powerful tale of the choices a young mother faces, and how she overcomes the odds stacked against her.
