Book excerpt: A three-day weekend visit home goes terribly wrong when Lillian James stabs her dad and has no memory of doing it. All introverted, but sassy-mouthed, Lillian James wants is to get her visit home done and over with. After all, the last thing she wants is to spend more time at the place where her childhood nightmares haunt her. But when she does the unimaginable, Lillian's entire life changes, yet she has no recollection of any of it. Now, stuck in her small hometown suffering through six months of court-ordered therapy, Lillian must sift through the faded memories of her painful childhood. With judgmental and suspicious townsfolk, the only person she can trust or count on is her old high school crush, Uriah Pendleton. He's the only light in her now dim life as he encourages her to explore her faith in ways she never dared to before. In the midst of her self-discovery, the relationship she has with the Savior—who she lovingly refers to as "Papa"—is tested beyond measure. She must allow Him to heal her wounds while learning that the past doesn't define the future. Will Lillian accept that God has a purpose for all things—even those that nearly shatter someone? Warning: this isn't like my usual fluffy light romance. It is darker and has a strong religious theme.
