Publisher's summary

Blamed as a child for her baby sister's death, Dianne Rucker swore she'd never come back to Dentonville, Texas. But the kind aunt who took her in after her mother abandoned her is getting remarried, and she misses the cousins who came to be sisters, Yolanda and Regina. Going back to Dentonville also means facing her drug-addicted mother, now slipping even farther into schizophrenia. But Dianne isn't the only one struggling, and Aunt Gloria may have the most life-altering secret of all. The women must look to their faith in God as they attempt to turn their lives around like Saul on the Biblical road to Damascus.

Author Michelle Stimpson has drawn praise from both readers and critics for her sassy, realistic characters. Her edgy Christian fiction focuses on the redeeming power of God during times that test the strength of family bonds.

Heartfelt listen

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This book was a terrific story and a fulfilling listen. I felt like I was listening to a sermon at church sometimes and I mean that in a good way. It made me reflect on my life, too.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Yolanda was my favorite character because she had her life all figured out and didn't need anyone else....she thought. I can relate.

What about Sharon Washington’s performance did you like?

Her voice was very soothing to listen to. I would listen to more books read by her.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes, I had a strong reaction to this book. It made me realize some things.

Excellent Read

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and definitely recommend it. It's true what they say -- what's done in the dark will soon come to light. It's only with strong faith and love that we come through.

Excellent book & Narrative

Loved it! Beautiful story about family and their concealed secrets. Immensely enjoyed listening to this book. What I love most is the authenticity and realism of the story relative to real life experiences. This was emotional, raw and depicted issues of struggles, strongholds, deliverance and most of all forgiveness. Also tells a story of restoration. This story could be a great movie that I wouldn’t hesitate to watch even add to my fave collection. Narrator brought the story to life with each character; excellent job. Look forward to listening to more books like this.

misery to a message

I loved it and hated to see it come to an end. I learned so much about myself and how God has directed my life. I learned the heart ache of family secrets. I would recommend this book to everyone.

The untold story

This was a soothing story of how seeking to be perfect for Christ is without merit. We seek Christ first and him we will find perfect love. Well done!

Very good read!

I so enjoyed this book. Aunt Toe was my favorite! Yolanda was a close second! The use of prayer was outstanding and reminded me that I need to pray about EVERYTHING!
