The Next Generation (The Healing saga continues)

My dad passed away when I was a child, and I've been messed up ever since, going as far as treating my family horribly. They are the best, and I've alienated them all.

I'm a recluse of my own making. I thought I was fine in my solitude until I found her bloodied, bruised, and freezing to death on my property.

My life is being interrupted and I'm not dealing well, but her smile makes me think everything will be all right, even if the scowl her young son sends me reminds me it's not.

She's keeping secrets, and I want them all, including her heart.

I've not always been a good person, and this little boy is making me see just how much help and forgiveness I need even if I don't deserve it.

She believes in me.
Maybe one day, I'll believe in myself.

This is the first book of The Next Generation of The Healing Series.
