Previously published as The Turning Point, this powerful story is about a woman searching for a new beginning. Desperate to escape her abusive marriage, Lilly Crawford files for divorce, then slips away from her small east Texas hometown with little more than the clothes on her back. With broken dreams and countless regrets, she points her twelve-year-old car east, hoping to find a new beginning. But when her car breaks down on a back road in Louisiana, Lilly is forced to seek help and finds unex-pected employment in the wealthy Wakefield home-a powerful southern family who takes her in as one of their own. Lilly even finds an unexpected love with Adam, the Wakefield son and head of the family. But then Lilly's ex-husband resurfaces, bring-ing with him a past that threatens to destroy her new found life.
