    About this audiobook

    An Amazon Charts bestseller.

    In the deep woods of East Texas, Henry supports his family by selling bootleg liquor. It’s all he can do to keep his compassionate but ailing mother and his stepfather—a fanatical grassroots minister with a bruising rhetoric—from ruin. But they have no idea they’ve become the obsession of the girl in the woods.

    Abandoned and nearly feral, Eve has been watching them, seduced by the notion of family—something she’s known only in the most brutal sense. Soon she can’t resist the temptation to get close. Where Henry’s mother sees a poor girl in need, his father sees only wickedness. When Henry forges an unexpected bond with Eve, he believes he might be able to save her. He doesn’t know how wrong he is.

    Eve is about to take charge of her own destiny—and that of Henry’s family. As both their worlds spin violently out of control, Henry must make an impossible choice: protect the broken woman who’s claimed a piece of his soul, or put everyone he loves at risk in order to do the right thing.

      Not sure what to say about this book rather than wow. It really gripped me with the raw emotions and the ending was so realistic, it had me in tears. Powerful piece.
    • 3/5
      A good story about the impact one special person can have on a community, and the rippling effects and consequences of our choices. Set in East Texas, Eve (a bit of an obvious biblical reference) appears as if from nowhere, although actually an escapee from a human trafficking group. Good story!
    • 4/5
      Well written. I liked it.
