| book description |

India Allwood grew up wanting to be an actress. Armed with a stack of index cards (which, torn into pieces, also function as make-shift confetti) and a hell of a lot of talent, she goes from awkward 16-year-old to Broadway ingenue to tv star. But while promoting her most recent project, a film about adoption, India does what you should never do - she tells a journalist the truth: itâ€™s a bad movie. Like so many movies about adoption, it tells only one story, a tragic one. But Indiaâ€™s an adoptive mum herself and knows thereâ€™s so much more to her family than tragedy. Soon sheâ€™s at the centre of a media storm, battling accusations from the press and the paparazzi, from protesters on the right and advocates on the left. Her daughter Fig knows they need help â€“ and who better to call for help than family? Because Indiaâ€™s not just an adoptive mom. She also had a baby she gave up for adoption her senior year of high school. That baby is now sixteen, excited to meet her birth mother and eager to help, but she also has an agenda and secrets of her own. It turns out what makes a family isnâ€™t blood and it isnâ€™t love because no matter how theyâ€™re formed, the hallmark of true family is this: itâ€™s complicated.
