Julia Whittaker’s rocky past yielded two daughters, both given up for adoption as infants. Now she must find them to try to save her son.
Julia and Matt Whittaker’s son has beaten the odds for thirteen years only to have the odds—and his liver—crash precipitously. The only hope for his survival is a “living liver” transplant, but the transplant list is long and Dillon’s time is short. His two older half-sisters, born eighteen months apart to two different fathers, offer his only hope for survival.
But can Julia ask a young woman—someone she surrendered to strangers long ago and has never spoken with—to make such a sacrifice to save a brother she’s never known? Can she muster the courage to journey back into a shame-filled season of her life, face her choices and their consequences, and find any hope of healing?
And what if she discovers in her own daughters’ lives that a history of foolish choices threatens to repeat itself? Julia knows she’s probably embarking on a fool’s errand—searching for the daughters she abandoned only now that she needs something from them. But love compels Julia to take this journey. Can grace and forgiveness compel her daughters to join her?
In To Know You, Shannon Ethridge and Kathryn Mackel explore how the past creates the present . . . and how even the most shattered lives can be redeemed.

My review;
 
Julia Whittaker has a really big problem that she needs to face head on. . She has 2 daughters that she knows she has to find and ask them to help save the half-brother who they have never known. He is only 13 years old and he needs a "living liver' transplant. How will she  be able to speak to them for the first time and ask them to get tested and see if they are a match? This is a story of true family love and compassion even when the family is brand new. In order to become whole Julia must face her past and start a new future. I cried and felt love for this family from the very beginning. I really enjoyed this story. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Litfuse Publicity Group and all opinions are my own.
