In the bitter winter of January 1947, a relentless snowstorm blankets Chicago. But the icy wind is no match for the cold heart of a mother who has just given birth to a child she never wanted. Thus begins the unforgettable journey of Katie O'Brien-a young girl whose desperate search for love and acceptance will shape the course of her life. Spanning the changing decades of the 1950s and turbulent 1960s, Follow Your Heart is a powerful story of abuse, courage, romance, betrayal, and the strength of the human spirit. As Katie comes of age, she faces heartbreaking choices and unimaginable hardships. At seventeen, a tragic turn of events forces her to flee the only life she has ever known, sending her on a terrifying journey toward freedom-and the hope of a better future. An emotionally compelling novel of resilience, forgiveness, and the enduring power of love, Follow Your Heart is the unforgettable first book in the From the Heart series.
