Publisher's summary

On a business trip, a high-powered 56-year-old American entrepreneur visits his partners in China. After their meeting, his Asian mentor invites him to an orphanage, a trip that will change the course of his family’s life forever. Without hesitation, he and his wife fall in love with Anglo/Asian twin girls and become their adoptive parents.

The children grow up in a world of twists and turns with multiple coincidences and synchronicity. Their journey takes them from China to Europe to America and back to China where their unusual birth mother enters their lives.

This powerful story is filled with drama at every turn as the daughters face internal and external challenges. The Birth Mother is a story filled with love, pathos, tragedy, and triumph. Listen, laugh, cry, and learn. It’s a tale you will never forget.

Started out well but very disappointed with the ending

I enjoyed the beginning 74% of story but the end was not very good in my opinion.

An intriguing story with a clumsy ending

This is a remarkable story with many exciting twists and turns in the various plots. The author had me completely enthralled and intrigued for the first three-fourths of the book.

I won't spoil the ending for you, but I will say that it didn't quite fit. The story of love against all odds, spirituality, human triumph, devastating pain, grief and loss all came down to a minor detail which by comparison boiled down to a trivial difference of opinion. The ending simply didn't fit with the rest of the story. I was disappointed.
