After adopting the children, Zealina finds herself questioning her marriage and her love for her new children, while wondering if she can see God’s blessings through a cloudy haze of betrayal.
Review
First time reading something from this author. The title and the cover got my attention, so I had to read it.
Zealina is a breast health navigator who has empty nest syndrome. She meets her patient Andreana. Adreanna is a single mom of two kids who is dying of cancer. All she wants is a nice home going service and a loving home for her children. The twists and turns in this story was unexpected. I really enjoyed and loved this story. I really understood why the author named the title. I give it 5 stars.
