About the Book

Opal, who on a quest for redemption and retribution, lives in the busy city of New Orleans, Louisiana where she once had dreams of accomplishing her dream of receiving a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and pursuing a career as a therapist. A troubling past continues to haunt her and diminishes the possibility of fulfilling this dream. The life that she has worked extremely hard to create is tested as childhood experiences of mental and emotional abuse arise when she comes face- to- face again with her dreadful enemy. An inward battle resurfaces as those suppressed traumatic memories trigger a series of progressive devastating events. Unprepared for this internal battle, Opal is forced to confront her demons. However, she finds solace in a child hood friendship with Nancy, an established Hollywood movie star whom she admirably adores. Nancy's celebrity is an escape from Opal's predictable painful life. Tracy, Opal's sister, is protective of the Dubar's deceitful family despite their faults. This betrayal causes a hateful division between the feuding sister's relationship that only God can mend. This separation is the result of a terrible family secret. Opal can no longer survive without revealing the truth! Love and pain are vividly explored as Opal fights with every ounce of strength she has for true romance, friendship and family.
