Imagine that you've always wanted a baby. What would you do if you saw one left alone in a store?

This is just what happened to Lucy in WHAT WAS MINE. For several years, she and her husband, Warren, have tried to have a baby but have not been able to conceive. She goes through life wanting nothing more than to have a child of her own. Warren has had enough, and he leaves Lucy.

One day, while shopping in IKEA, Lucy comes upon a baby girl left alone in a stroller. Lucy looks around but doesn't see anyone with her. Marylyn is the woman who left the baby for a second to take a call from work. What a shock when she discovers her baby gone. All Lucy wanted to do was take the baby outside because it was very cold in the store and the baby was not in the best outfit.

Forward to years later. Marylyn has never given up hope her daughter would be found. During this time, Marylyn's husband left her, and she is now married again with three children. That has not stopped her from wanting her first child back.

Lucy has given Mia everything a child could want, but in some surprising turns of event, Mia finds out she was stolen from her natural parents. Will Mia and her real mom finally get to reunited? What will happen to the relationship between Mia and Lucy?

What a great storyline. Helen Klein Ross writes a story which you might think is unbelievable but I'm sure it could be true. While I found myself cheering for Lucy, I also felt bad for Marylyn. And then there's Mia. I can't even imagine what this would be like for all involved. Helen Klein Ross writes with such emotions from all sides. WHAT WAS MINE is sad in parts, happy in others.
