Love at the Border: An Adoption Memoir from Mexico

On Sunday, Priscilla was a seven-year-old orphan living in Mexico. On Monday, she found herself in suburban Philadelphia beginning a new life. Instead of a happy ending, Priscilla cried and pleaded in Spanish to return to the woman who raised her. Love at the Border provides a rare look into the international adoption of an older child and speaks to all blended families as mother and daughter endeavor to bridge two worlds. This true story of love, loss, trust, and survival is a powerful testament to family and our need to belong. Women on both sides of the border – and ultimately Priscilla herself – must discover the key to her past that will provide a future full of the love she wants and deserves.
