L is for Life on Hold by Beverly Stowe McClure
Blurb (from amazon.com): A paper found. A secret revealed. A girl’s life changed forever. Myra Gibson’s life is a lie. For sixteen years her parents have kept their secret, but the adoption paper she discovers while cleaning the summerhouse tells the truth. As the past and present collide, Myra finally stands up for herself and begins a journey she may regret.
I don’t normally pick up books like this but the blurb is very intriguing.

Thank you for your kind words, Rosa. I hope you enjoy Myra’s story.
What a pleasant surprise to wake up this morning and see my book on your blog, Melanie. Thank you.
I think this sounds like a very emotional book. We know a boy that was adopted as a newborn. He knows that his birth parents are friends of his adoptive parents. However, no one will tell him which ones are his biological parents. He desperately wants to know and, personally, I think that they should answer his questions. He is an adult now, early 20s. To keep it from him at this point is just cruelty, in my opinion.
I’ll have to add this one to my list to read. Thank you!
