Synopsis
WINNER — First Place, Women's Clean Fiction (Incipere Book Award)
"I read it in one sitting — a story that makes you think while keeping you on the edge of your seat." — Amazon reader
Nora Collins has spent her career watching over babies whose parents have not yet taken them home.
At an Austin medical facility called the Postponement Center, parents place their newborns in cryo-suspension — frozen, safe, waiting — until life is convenient enough to raise them. Nora handles the paperwork, the families, the careful goodbyes. Single and past child-bearing years, she tells herself it's only a job.
Then one mother makes a choice that puts her postponed child in danger.
And Nora — who has never had a baby of her own — decides she cannot let it happen. What she does next crosses every line she's sworn to protect, and forces her to face the decision she's spent a lifetime trying to forget.
What would you risk for a child who isn't yours — and to undo the one choice you can never take back?
Just because we can postpone parenthood — should we?
Postponement is a near-future domestic thriller about love, conscience, and the cost of doing what's right — for readers who love character-driven suspense, morally complex heroines, and a story that stays with them long after the last page.
