Two women. Carly and Tabitha. They each have suffered life-altering events that have left them both traumatically damaged.

Carly Sloan’s life was perfect until her security and innocence was torn from her. The vast repercussions from these events threaten to destroy her stability and her chances for a happily ever after. Kyle Finnegan comes into Carly’s life at the height of her turmoil. Can he help her find what she desires most?

Tabitha Fletcher has constantly suffered from a very young age. She has been hiding from her past, which was full of sadness, loss and abuse. She has been so brutally damaged that she has very little hope for redemption. The revolving door of men only leads her deeper into misery.

What circumstance brings these two women together and can they help each other heal? And will they each find what they need?

Redemption.

Love.

Family.

Dear Emily,

How do I start a letter to a child I have yet to meet?

A child that has always been in our hearts?

A child that is meant for our family?

Your Daddy and I can’t wait for the moment we are able to hold you in our arms for the first time. To lay our eyes on your perfect face, eyes, toes. To breathe in the essence of a new baby, swirling scents of powder and linen.

We can’t wait to feel your beating heart against our chests and to listen to your slow and steady breaths. To hear your soft baby noises. To soothe your crying.

We have always dreamed of you, Emily. We’ve dreamed that someday our family would be blessed with a child. We are so close. Our new family is within reach.

We are hoping, waiting, praying.

Love and kisses,

Mama

My eyes glisten with tears as I scrawl my signature at the bottom of the letter, touch my fingers to my lips, press them onto her name, and close my journal. I look over to my left where Kyle is softly snoring, sleeping soundly. I mouth the words ‘I love you’ to him, touch his back lightly, put my journal in my night table drawer, and turn out the soft light by my bedside. I curl my body into his, tuck my head onto his chest, and hold tight.

I love this man with all that I am, and I love the father that hi is going to be.

My heart is full of hope.

Dear Tabitha (#2) – March 28, 2014

You know me. You know who I am. What I am. 

Damaged. Confused. Alone. 

You feel sorry for me. You pity me. 

You know what I’ve done. What I’ve given up. Who I’ve given up. 

You try to understand what I’ve been through and how I can possibly go on with my life. But you can’t possibly understand. 

I’ve lost too much. Sacrificed too much. Given up everything so that I can find myself. 

Well I’m done. 

I’m done walking away from everything that matters. 

It’s time for me to heal. 

It’s MY TURN to earn… 

Redemption. 

Love. 

Family.
