What happens when a sporty foster kid from the suburbs meets her glamorous birth mom in the big city? This slice-of-life novel is perfect for fans of Judy Blume and Wendy Mass.

Brady Mason couldn't care less about fashion. She likes what she knows: baseball, comfortable clothes, and pork roll with egg and cheese. When Brady's friends notice that she looks strangely like fashion editor Elena Lavigne, they start the rumor that Brady is Elena's long-lost daughter. They'll make a few TikTok videos, get some fun buzz online about their similarities, and that will be the end of it.

But when a DNA test confirms that Brady is Elena's long-lost daughter, she’s summoned to Manhattan to live with her. The only problem: Elena’s high-fashion life clashes with Brady's tomboy antics, and Elena doesn't know how to be a mother any more than Brady knows how to be a daughter. But the more time passes, the more Brady sees what they have in common, and she starts wondering…if she and Elena are both searching for a family, could the two of them be the right fit?

Balancing humor and heart, here is a winning story of hard-fought growth and found family.
