This is book four in the Tree of Life series - and I think it might just be my favorite!
When Geneaologist Jillian's father (attorney Nolan Duffy) brings home a teenage shoplifter in need of some volunteer hours -a sentencing requirement- she is less than pleased. Jillian finally relents, but the teen is not only uninterested; she is downright difficult most of the time.
Teen Tisha Crowder and her family are suffering from what appears to be a sort of generational curse, burden, or deeply held misbeliefs that are still impacting their daily lives. Anger has been passed down again and again; will Jillian and Nolan ultimately be able to break through Tisha's protective wall and find the smart and capable girl that's inside? Does sorting our your heritage truly change your future?
With the usual colorful cast of characters in this endearing small town, combined with a glimpse into an important time in Colorado's history, this book is a fun and thought provoking read. I happily recommend it!
I was provided a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
