Opis

Samantha Donnerly appears to have it all: a new career, an encouraging fiance, and a loving family. But dark memories of her family's past resurface, and soon personal insecurities collide with professional struggles. In an attempt to save her career and connect with her indifferent students, Samantha asks them to write about a life-changing event. What she doesn't expect is for one student's response to turn both of their worlds upside down. Joy Westham is also struggling: as a college freshman, she wants to create a new life for her family outside the abusive control of her father. Finding a way to support her mother and two younger siblings soon proves to be more difficult than she realizes. Dropping out of school to get a full-time job may be her only option, but at what cost? When Joy's essay prompts Samantha to take action, they are both thrown into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse. Will Samantha and Joy learn to trust God to help their families heal from this nightmare?"
