About this listen

What would you do if a secret was causing your family to crumble?

Is there a secret terrible enough that it should never be revealed, not even if it was tearing a family apart? For more than five decades, Emma Bauer has kept one - carefully guarding it with all her strength, and for more than five decades, that choice has haunted her life and also the lives of her daughters and granddaughter. Is it too late for wrongs to be righted? Does Emma even have the strength to let the healing power of truth work in her family?

The story of four generations of women and the powerful effects their choices have had on their lives is at the heart of Eve's Daughters, an epic novel from author Lynn Austin. Grand in scope but tender and personal at the same time, it will please you as a fan of contemporary or historical fiction.

Exploring times from World War I to the 1980s, Eve's Daughters is an insightful look at mothers, daughters, sisters, and families that allows you to see a little bit of yourself through the characters' triumphs, struggles, and hard-tested faith.

Yearning for love, dignity, and freedom, the four generations of women must come to terms with the choices they have made. Healing comes when the past is forgiven, but only when they embrace God's forgiveness can they shatter the cycle that has ruled their lives over the decades.

Another great Austin story!

Great book...Austin does it again with creative, and gifted historical detail of settings woven through all of the time periods of the book. Full of tragedy and triumph, overall a good read. Narration is good, although sometimes slower paced than I like but Hendrix does a good job representing the nationalities of voices, and does so with intent and purpose as she reads. Lots of redemptive threads in the story.

Love & Redemption

A wonderful story of God's love and redemption in our lives and in our relationships with one another. The narrator told the story of these characters in a way that was engaging.

Very moving

It moved me to tears. God's grace is for everyone, no matter how devastating the impact of our wrong doing. I usually listen to these books in my car, but I got so wrapped up in the story, I began listening to it in my home on my phone and bluetooth headphones.

A bit prescribed

I really enjoy Austin's heart for people and the way in which they influence each other but this time it felt occasionally forced. Not for the whole story but now and again. Overall it was a good story and I'm glad I took the time to hear it.

Better than I expected

This is a book that takes you on a journey through multiple generations and shows how each generation is affected by the others.
The narration is wonderful.
I was sad for it to end.
I recommend this book highly.

This is absolutely one of the best books I’ve heard!

Out of over more than 350 books I’ve listened to in the past six years, I have not been as moved by an author before. I did have trouble with the narrator at first, but fortunately I was able to appreciate her talent as the story developed. I’m not a crier, this time I couldn’t help but feel tears of sadness, grief and joy. I would recommend this to all women who still have the chance to talk to their mothers before you’ve lost that opportunity for all time. Especially if there are multiple generations of mothers, daughters and sisters who have that chance. The book really helps to guide us with being open, honest and not ever forgetting how much we are loved.
