Dark family secrets threaten to catch up to her and shatter the happiness she yearns for. In this uplifting coming of age story, things are not always what they seem. Must she choose between a life of security or a life of passion?
This author has become a favorite. I have read all four of her titles and each one was as good as the one before. I love the premise, and her characters. The stories evoke so many emotions, I laugh, I cry, I celebrate and grieve....she describes the lives of people who live full lives and love deeply. It's about family and community, and how they navigate the ups and downs together. I'm always sorry when I reach the end.... Many Thanks, Sarah, for putting your stories on paper to share with the world. Kim S.
Do you ever read what you know is fiction but found it hard not to believe? Windstill Night is that novel for me! The characters are so real, the conversations so very believable. I felt like I walked the Bellamy Road, felt the anxiety and fear. This is a book you want to read.
A quick, easy read. It highlights how misunderstandings, secrets, and lies can damage family relationships. I guess it can hurt any relationships. Forgiveness is so important.
