Newlyweds Zara and Chad Mahoney have big plans - ones that are set aside when Zara's niece and nephew (her estranged twin sister Eve's kids) are in need of emergency foster care. Desperate to be a mother, but terrified of her genetic risks, Zara agrees to take in the kids and hopes it will ultimately be a path to healing some of her broken places.
Tiff Bradley's drug addicted daughter is long gone and presumed dead. She is committed that if there is anything she can do to help another family avoid the same devastating loss, she will do it - even at great personal risk. When she meets Eve on one of her "ministry" nights out on the streets, Tiff sees something she can't ignore and becomes involved far deeper than seems wise. But is that level of commitment and consistency what Eve really needs to break free for good this time?
This was such a challenging story to read - but very good, and so worth it. The author uses Eve's journal entries to give a peek into her struggles and thought process, and it is both effective and enlightening. The journey they all make as a family, along with the unexpected ending, was satisfying and also left me wanting more. I truly enjoyed this book!
I was provided a complimentary copy of this book from Bethany House Publishers and NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
