Description
What is Home: The Story of Naomi Baker is a searing, unflinching novel about the wounds we carry, the love we fight for, and the long road to healing.
Naomi Baker never had a childhood—she had a battlefield. Raised by parents consumed by addiction and rage, she became a mother to her four siblings long before she was ready, doing whatever it took to protect them from the storm inside their broken home. Abuse, hunger, and fear were her daily reality. Love? That was something she only dreamed about-until the system intervened and tore her world apart.
Shuffled through a group home, Naomi meets Timothy Kingston, a bruised boy with his own scars. For a brief, shining moment, they become each other’s shelter. But even shelters collapse. When fate pulls them apart, Naomi is left to navigate a new world, one where kindness is unfamiliar and love feels dangerous.
Now living with a foster family, Naomi has a second chance. But just as she starts to understand what home might feel like, ghosts from her past
-and her heart-resurface. What happens when your past and your present collide? Can Naomi find a future where she’s more than just a survivor?
