TESTIMONIALS
What Readers Are Saying
i read the book, it was easy to read ,kept me wanting to know what happened very intense at times. Her believe kept her going even to the end

This is truly a story of love, strength and faith. When struggles appeared the author never lost her faith in God. Clearly she loved her family in good times and bad. She gave completely her whole life and soul over to her family, never wavering. The story could be used in high school and college classrooms as a study in self reflection. I believe it would lend itself well adapted in a screen play

This book was about life’s struggles and a mother’s love that wouldn’t quit! Although very disturbing at the many sorrows she experienced, she continues to be strong and resilient. For all those who struggle with their children yet still have them, consider yourselves Blessed! Soooooo…….to all the readers out there who need to appreciate what they have, Read This Book! Some people aren’t as fortunate.

This book was well written about a family sorrow and love. I would love to see this book turned into a Lifetime Movie.

I received the book on a Wednesday about 5pm. I couldn’t put the book down. The author has the ability to pull you right into the story. I was up until 3am when I finished the book. Five stars to the author. Highly recommended!

Great read! I finished it in one day! True story of a mother's love and determination to help her child even through a tough marriage at times. Her faith in God and the power of prayer keeps her going! A must read!
