Title: When Joy Came to Stay
Author: Karen Kingsbury
The main character, Maggie, has depression over a child she put up for adoption eight years ago. She finally goes to a psychiatric hospital for this. (Both her husband and she are Christians). Her husband wants to know why she's depressed. He finds out she gave a baby up for adoption. And also finds the biological father. Meanwhile the child has had a really horrible time in foster care. Does the father give up his rights? Does her husband accept the child? Does she get better and want the child?
It's a Christian book with Bible quotes so you can probably figure out the ending.
Excellent book.
Fiction; rated 5 out of 5.
