I really enjoy a book that isn't the typical story & "When I Found You" was one of those books. Well-written, unexpected, and touching - this was the perfect book to read while lounging under a blanket watching the leaves fall with a cup of tea.
The story begins with Nathan McCann. The author immediately makes the reader feel for Nathan who seems to be lonely and in a loveless marriage. In a moment that changed his life, duck hunting one morning Nathan and his dog find a tiny baby left in the woods wrapped in a sweater. Nathan bonds with this child in the short time it takes to bring him to the police and decides he wants to adopt the boy. However, this is where the story starts to depart from the expected. The baby is given to its grandmother to raise, yet through the years Nathan always carries a soft spot for him. A story of heartbreak, trauma, and unconditional love despite all odds made me truly enjoy this book. On a scale of 1 - 5, I give it 5 stars.
