Description
About the Book
A novel of a family, this is the compelling story of four generations of women and the secret that has changed their lives.From the Back Cover
25 years in print!What Would You Do If a Secret Was Causing Your Family to Crumble?
Is there a secret terrible enough that it should never be revealed, not even if it was tearing a family apart? For more than five decades Emma Bauer has kept one--carefully guarding it with all her strength, and for more than five decades that choice has haunted her life and also the lives of her daughters and granddaughter. Is it too late for wrongs to be righted? Does Emma even have the strength to let the healing power of truth work in her family?
The story of four generations of women and the powerful effects that their choices have had on their lives is at the heart of Eve's Daughters, an epic novel from author Lynn Austin. Grand in scope but tender and personal at the same time, it will please you as a fan of contemporary or historical fiction.
Exploring times from World War I to the 980s, Eve's Daughters is an insightful look at mothers, daughters, sisters, and families that allows you to see a little bit of yourself through the characters' triumphs, struggles, and hard-tested faith.
Yearning for love, dignity, and freedom, the four generations of women must come to terms with the choices they have made. Healing comes when the past is forgiven but only when they embrace God's forgiveness can they shatter the cycle that has ruled their lives over the decades.

A fantastic book! The story alternates between 4 generations of women: Louise, Emma, Grace, and Suzanne. It examines the choices we make, and how the choices of our ancestors end up affecting us. How much do the sins of our mother's trickle down to us? It is heavily Christian based, with a theme of forgiveness being a HUGE part of it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is because I couldn't stand some of the characters. While some of the characters matured throughout the book, others were just overly self centered and didn't seem to learn anything. Regardless, this is a story that will stick with you! Recommended!!
