“I’m here to remind you of who you are and what you want, Willa. You will always be Joy Sutter’s daughter. That’s never going to change. But you won’t always be a soccer powerhouse. You won’t always have this free education. You won’t always have a man waiting at your door to give you comfort. Some things are timeless—your mother’s love, her mark on your life. But so much else, you have to find the strength to snatch them up before they’re gone.”
