A young woman with a child – but no husband. And the child starts to make up stories about her father . . . now what? She totally believes that God is her Father – and now she has to explain to her daughter about why she does not have one. THIS IS A GREAT STORY OF HOPE, HEALING AND REDEMPTION!!
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All thoughts and comments are my own.
I loved this book and its unusual content!
This book begins somewhat differently than you might expect, and an attraction seems to develop quickly between the two main characters, Paul and Marta. A lot of things happen that you wouldn’t even think about, as the story flows from one scene to another. You can’t help but keep reading, because you want to know how it turns out! I would encourage you to get this book.
This was a gripping story that was told in a thoughtful and compassionate way. A story of a young girls tragedy that was used to provide hope to others. There was a real honesty to the book that made me want to continue reading until the end. Couldn’t put it down. Highly recommend. I was given a free copy of this book but this has in no way influenced my review. Another great read from Juliet Duncan.
What a gripping story that is definitely a read that I recommend. I love how the Author has done the World Building. And the main Character Marta really pulls you in. I definitely recommend also that you may want some tissues handy. This is a real page turner that I could not put down. Its definitely a must read.

Marta is a single mom, what challenges in her life!
Fortunately, now she has kind friends that help her.
But the past sometimes…
Lovely and realistic story, God centered, inspiring.
I was given an ARC of this book, but the following is my honest review. Juliette Duncan has woven a story of happenings that are currently going on close to you though unknown. Drugs and alcohol create monsters that not only hurt themselves but often those around them. This is a story of one such victim and how she overcame it and goes on to help others through her first hand experience.
