I've had several friends go through infertility treatments or try to adopt, and once when I was looking at some prospective adoptive family profiles online I was struck by all the pain the families were trying to valiantly to mask in their efforts to look perfect and happy to attract adoptive parents. I wanted to write a book about that pain, and since I write YA, I had to find a way to put a teenager in it. Many, many drafts later, I finally got the story told the way I wanted it.
