Summary Samira Murphy is caring for her widowed grandmother, and trying to get her older brother into recovery for alcohol addiction. With attendance at her dream college on the line, she takes a long shot DNA test to find the support she so desperately needs from a father she hasn't seen since she was a baby. Henry Owen is torn between his unreliable bio-mom and an overly strict aunt and uncle who stepped in to raise him. He takes a DNA test to find the biological father he never knew. Matched to each other, Samira and Henry search for their father together, and slowly unravel the difficult truth of their shared past. -- adapted from jacket
