First, realize that your "ex-wife's daughter" is now your daughter, too, and you have as much right to timeshare ("custody and visitation") as your ex-wife does. But a judge will probably allow her to be adopted as long as it will cause no psychological harm and as long as your ex is married to a man who will adopt in your place.
