For tweens ages 10-13.

Something old. Something new. Something borrowed—stolen too!

All twelve-year-old Emerald Pope wants is her mother’s love. She’d do anything to feel like a priority. But since her mom left, that’s never been an option. Now that Emma’s dad is getting remarried, she’s got a second chance at being a mother’s priority with her soon-to-be stepmom, Diana. But when Diana chooses her biological daughter, Charity, to be maid of honor instead of Emma, things heat up. One evil plan and a few lies later, Emma sabotages her stepsister, Charity, hoping to steal the coveted maid-of-honor role. But one misstep could destroy everything, and if discovered, Emma’s secret scheme may end in disaster.

All twelve-year-old Charity wants is a baby sister. When she finds out she’s getting a stepsister instead, disappointment sets in. Charity tries to get along with her stepsister. But she keeps messing up. When Charity suspects something off about Emma, she hunts for clues, stumbling upon shocking evidence. As Charity learns to forgive, she realizes God’s redemptive plan for all who are guilty. Still, Charity wrestles with the questions: Are all relationships repairable? And will God give her a baby sister?
