About the Books
These six memoirs form the heart of Angela Hart's Tales of Life as a Foster Carer series, each a standalone account drawn from decades of fostering experience. Terrified opens the series as a young girl arrives in emergency care, untrusting and afraid. The Girl Who Just Wanted To Be Loved follows an eight-year-old whose difficult behavior masks deep hidden pain. The Girl and the Ghosts uncovers a guarded child's secrets and the family history behind them. The Girl With Two Lives explores a girl caught between two very different worlds, while The Girl Who Wanted to Belong traces a devastated child's long path toward trust and stability. The Girl in the Dark closes the set with another unforgettable case from Angela's career. Across all six books, Angela writes with the authority of someone who has lived this work firsthand, translating years of frontline foster care into stories that are gripping without feeling exploitative. She balances honest depictions of abuse, loss, and behavioral struggles with genuine hope, showing the small, consistent acts of patience that allow damaged children to rebuild their sense of safety.
