When Deborah’s daughter Caroline brings her fiancé Lily home
to meet her, Deborah is shocked to discover that Lily is a woman from her
past…a past she’d rather forget. Will Deborah’s long ago actions destroy the
close loving relationship she’s always shared with her daughter?
Excerpt
Deborah’s eyes traveled to Lily. Lily, dressed in casual
kaki slacks and a red turtleneck, had set the last suitcase on the driveway and
then slowly closed the trunk of the car. As Deborah watched Lily pick up the
suitcases and begin to walk toward Caroline, Deborah got her first full view of
her. It can’t be! she thought. As Lily moved closer, Deborah’s eyes met the
woman’s eyes. Lily showed no emotion or recognition. Deborah froze, and then
visibly trembled.
"Are you all right, Mom?" Caroline asked,
worriedly taking Deborah’s arm and steadying her. "You’re trembling."
She stared curiously at her. "You’re so pale. What’s wrong? Have you been
ill? Are you keeping some health problem from me, Mom?"
"No…no, I’m fine, Caroline." she said quickly as
she struggled to regain her composure.
