A compelling story about the journey of a deeply religious Southern woman's search for love and meaning. She begins as we all do with a need to love and be loved, and her early experiences of a losing in love sets in motion a series of bad life choices. Through them we are drawn deeper into the mystery of life and the duality of the physical and spiritual that dwells in us all. It is her profound love and devotion to God that keeps her going. The author's ability to draw you into her character; to feel her pain, yet still hope, makes for a truly inspirational story.
