Many thanks to NetGalley, Lake Union Publishing and Kathleen Long for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. I did not think I would enjoy this book, but I really did. At the age of 10, Destiny Jones’ world changed. Her mother passed and her father left her with her grandmother to become an actor. This shaped Destiny’s future, as she protected herself from loving and from being hurt. As an adult, her father decides to come back into her life, but has secrets that he wants to share with her. These secrets once again change her life. This story was very moving and emotional. I really felt for Destiny’s character and rooted for her to find the peace that she truly deserved. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Destiny Jones is doing just fine on her own, thanks. From her thriving one-woman carpentry business to the loving support of her small-town community, Destiny has constructed a life as sturdy and polished as her best cabinets.

His devastating exit taught Destiny a lesson in self-reliance that has kept her safe--and alone--ever since.Now Albert Jones is back, begging for a second chance. Destiny suspects he's simply staging another performance, starring himself as the prodigal father. Should she act on her misgivings? Or listen to her inner child, who still yearns for a family? When Albert divulges a shocking secret, Destiny's life will again be turned upside down.Kathleen Long's warm, wise novel reveals the armor that has protected us in the past is often the very thing we must shed to fully live and love.

The author paints a small town we all want to live in, and this town has been Destiny's family and support system. Everything changes when her dad shows up on her doorstep...with more family surprises than Destiny never imagined.
It's a great story of opening your heart to forgiveness, welcoming new relationships, and understanding the actions of others. ( )
