Looked too interesting not to buy. That's what happens when I read others wishlists.

Amazon Editorial Review

Alicia Richards loved her daughter from her very first breath. Days later, when tests confirmed what Alicia already knew—that Chloe had Down syndrome—she didn’t falter. Her ex-husband wanted a child who would grow to be a scholar. For Alicia, it’s enough that Chloe just is.

Now twenty-five, Chloe is sweet, funny, and content. Alicia brings her to adult daycare while she teaches at a local college. One day Chloe arrives home thrumming with excitement, and says the words Alicia never anticipated. She has met someone—a young man named Thomas. Within days, Chloe and Thomas, also mentally challenged, declare themselves in love.

Alicia strives to see past her misgivings to the new possibilities opening up for her daughter. Shouldn’t Chloe have the same right to love as anyone else? But there is no way to prepare for the relationship unfolding, or for the moments of heartbreak and joy ahead...

This was an interesting read about a woman whose daughter has Down's Syndrom, She meets a young man, at an adult day care, who she falls in love with and wants to marry.
Through it all Mom is trying to cope with a stubborn daughter, a leaky house, an ex who is on to his 5th marriage and the rest of her life.
It started out well but then there were too many gaps in the story. Too much brushed aside and not addressed.
With just 20% left to read I could see that the "we'll tie this all up in a few pages" was going to happen.
Liked the authors writing but was disappointed with the too pat ending.
