Dear Mama - by Carl Weber (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Bound by pain, shaped by love, and tested by systems that were never built to protect them, Destiny, Majestic, and Blue are fighting for more than survival--they are fighting to become who they were always meant to be.

Some children write letters because they miss home. These children write because home is the place that broke them.

Majestic loved his momma more than anything--until the night he found her dead in a room full of blood and shattered glass. The man responsible warned him to stay silent. But silence has a way of turning fear into nightmares, and nightmares into secrets only dangerous men know how to bury.
Destiny was the girl who held her family together--until the man in her mother's bed started looking at her like prey. When she finally tells the truth, the person she expects to save her makes an unforgivable choice. Now Destiny must survive a world where love can vanish overnight, and the safest place may be with strangers.

Blue McKenzie is thirteen, gentle, and built like a grown man. When a violent moment of self-defense leaves another man dead, the world sees only his size--not the scared child underneath. With a lawyer pushing him toward a deal, a grieving mother who wants him quiet, and a system ready to swallow him whole, Blue has one chance to tell the truth before someone else writes his future.

Three children. Three mothers. Three lives changed by secrets, violence, and impossible choices.

In Dear Momma, love is not always safe, family is not always blood, and survival sometimes begins with the words no child should ever have to write:

Dear Momma...
