Ms. Wade, WOW, that's my feeling right now, after reading  your book.  I too was a single mother of a 3 yr old once upon a time and I had to place my child in the care of someone else, while I went to work.  I tell you, one of my biggest fears was something happening to my daughter while in someone else's care.  Fortunately, I was blessed and found a center that was excellent, but there are many centers that don't deserve a license.  Childcare is big business now days and some owners will cut corners for the almight dollar.  The regulations should remain strict, with a better check and balance system in place to avoid the scenerio portrayed in your story.  I found myself holding my breath throughout the book, wondering what was going to happen next.The relationship between Austin and Catrine was brought back on point, but it was sad that something tragic had to take place for them to come back together again, realizing how immature they both were in the past.  Even though Mona had been abused both mentally and physically in her youth, her issues with mental illness remained. It is a disease that is taken too lightly.  More research needs to happen, which may help in the development of medication that can bring balance to those affected.  I will be reading more of your work.
