The Kennedi Identity

By: Todd Davis

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

At fifteen, Kennedi gives birth alone in a Texas gas station—escaping a sex trafficking ring with nothing but her baby and a past that won’t stay silent. Placed in foster care, she finds tentative safety with a couple who believes stability can heal what exploitation broke.

But when DNA testing uncovers long-buried truths about her identity, Kennedi is pulled into a web of biological relatives, custody claims, and moral reckonings that adults struggle to navigate—let alone a traumatized teen mother.

As courts, social workers, and family members debate her future, Kennedi must decide who gets to define parenthood, protection, and belonging. The choice will shape not only her life, but her child’s.

A trauma-informed YA contemporary novel about survival, motherhood, and found family—written for mature teen readers and adults alike.

Recommended for mature YA (14+) and adult readers.
