Maddie thought she knew exactly who she was. Until an old photograph changed everything...
New year. New beginnings. New...dad?
New Year's Eve at the local pub takes an unexpected turn when Maddie discovers the new owner is her high school crush, Tom. Even stranger are the old photos Tom's found from a long-forgotten costume party at the pub. One of them shows her mother getting cosy with a mystery man nine months before Maddie was born.
When Maddie shows her family the photo, her mum is tight-lipped and dismissive, her aunt is jittery and evasive, and her uncle, well, he seems to develop a case of amnesia. Maddie becomes convinced the mystery man is her biological father. With the help of a surprisingly sleuthy Tom, she sets out to find him.
As Maddie's search threatens to tear her family apart, she finds herself falling for Tom. But just when she begins to imagine a future with him, his ex returns home, determined to win him back.
If Maddie wants to find her father, she must decide if it's worth the risk of losing her family. And if she wants a chance with Tom, she'll need to be brave enough to trust her heart, which could turn out to be her greatest challenge of all...
