Review Quotes

"Alana has a way of using fiction to open difficult issues and make you think." Phyllis Sather, Author of Purposeful Planning "Alana Terry has done the almost unthinkable;she has written a story with raw emotions of real people, not the usual glossy Christian image." Jasmine Augustine, Tell Tale Book Reviews "Once again, Ms. Terry brings a sensitive but important issue to the forefront without giving an answer. She leaves it up to the reader to think about and decide." Darla Meyer, Book Reviewer
