Some betrayals are like rivers, so deep, so wide, they can't be crossed. But—for those with enough courage—forgiveness, redemption, and love may be found on the other side.On the night her home is consumed by fire, Janine Stoddard finally resolves to leave her abusive husband. While she is reluctant to involve her estranged daughter, she can't resist a chance to see Harmony and baby Lottie before she disappears forever.Harmony's friend Taylor Martin realizes how much the reunited mother and daughter yearn to stay together, and she sees in Jan a chance to continue her own mother's legacy of helping women in need of a fresh start. She opens her home, even as she's opening her heart to another newcomer, Adam Pryor. But enigmatic Adam has a secret that could destroy Taylor's trust—and cost Jan her hard-won freedom.

Quotes

“Richards’ breathtaking page-turner is intense, fusing genres and engendering joy and sorrow. Her inherent understanding of emotions and empathic storytelling is apparent in her handling, without sermonizing, a realistic and too frequent social reality. Her fluent narrative superbly matches the eclectic Ashville community and every genuinely cultivated, enigmatic character shines. Brava!” RT Book Reviews (4½ stars, Top Pick)

“Richards builds a complex, yearning saga of broken families and damaged trust in the latest in her Goddesses Anonymous series…Richards deftly juggles an intriguing thriller with an exploration of domestic violence and reinvention. Still, it’s the quirky, gritty characters in and out of Goddesses Anonymous—all determined to help women in need—who power this tale of forgiveness every step of the way.” Publishers Weekly

“This is emotional, suspenseful drama filled with hope and love.” Library Journal

“Portraying the uncomfortable subject of domestic abuse with unflinching thoroughness and tender understanding, Richards’ third installment in the Goddesses Anonymous series offers important insights into a far too prevalent social problem.” Booklist
