The Landlady Who Raised A Genius

When seven-year-old Noah is abandoned by his mother, tough landlord Mara takes him in—with one condition: he must work off his mother’s unpaid rent. What begins as a debt becomes an unbreakable bond. Ten years later, Noah is a brilliant MIT-bound prodigy, and his wealthy birth mother suddenly returns with a million-dollar check to take him back. But Noah has already chosen where he belongs—and who deserves to be called Mom.
