What if Everything You've Ever Been Told is a Lie?
This book intertwines two love stories and a mystery that, once solved, has the potential to alter the lives of everyone involved.
When Joshua was just a young boy in the 60's, he was told his mother took her own life and left him to be raised by an emotionally absent man and a woman who had slipped into insanity because of the death of her own child.  Those circumstances affected every aspect of Joshua’s life but it wasn’t until he met Isabelle, the red-haired bookstore owner on Bell Island, that he realized just how emotionally stifled he was. He loved her, but his tragic past kept him from fully committing to her. And Isabelle was tired of waiting.
Then lavender scented letters began arriving in Joshua’s mailbox. The letters were signed “Mama,†and with God-inspired wisdom, they filled in the missing pieces of his early life with his mother, including why her own turbulent love story caused her to walk into the ocean one day in her best suit.
But Joshua must determine whether the letters are truly from his mother, who he believes has been dead for 20 years, or if there is an even deeper mystery that will finally explain the heartbreaking events of so long ago.
An emotional and inspirational novel about love, madness, and forgiveness that will keep you riveted until the last page.
