Summer's Gift cover

A young woman takes a DNA test on a whim and discovers the birth father—and half sisters—she never knew. New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan returns with this dramatic and page-turning novel perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover and Lori Foster. 

A DNA test tells you who you come from, not who you are.

All her life, Summer Sutherland felt like the missing piece in a puzzle, left out and looking for the place she truly belongs. And when an at-home DNA test reveals her selfish mother and well-meaning grandfather lied about her father, Summer sets out to discover the truth.

Her new instant family comes with two half sisters: one who accepts her with open arms, the other resistant to the stranger staying in their house. But somehow Summer senses this is where she is meant to be—so she settles into her father’s Carmel home, ready to get to know them and find her place in the family she always wanted.

But while her newfound parent is thrilled to get to know Summer—and her romantic connection to his business partner, Cody, heats up—tensions rise within the family.

Will she ever fit in? Or should she return to her other life before tearing all their lives apart?

Welcome to the world of Jennifer Ryan." — Jill Shalvis, New York Times bestselling author “Ryan is a master of the dysfunctional family unit, creating characters that draw you in and keep you engaged while immersing the reader in twisty stories that are overflowing with secrets and betrayals. Lost and Found Family is a complex, deeply emotional, and satisfying story that reinforces Jennifer Ryan’s immense storytelling skill and a book I recommend.” — The Romance Dish “Lost and Found Family is a rags to riches story in a totally unique package…Sarah just may be Jennifer Ryan’s most complex character to date…Ryan masterfully sets the scene for Sarah’s new world with grace, heart and integrity.” — Fresh Fiction “[A] sweet and steamy romance story.” — Harlequin Junkie (Top Pick) on Lost and Found Family  “Jennifer Ryan’s Sisters and Secrets should win an award for being the most unputdownable book of the whole year. The drama will keep you on the edge of your seat, and the emotional roller coaster will touch every emotion.” — Carolyn Brown, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author “Jennifer Ryan takes family drama to a new level in this tangled emotional web of a novel.
