Book Blurb:
Will the ugly secret haunting the twins keep them from finding true love?
While most visionaries see into the future, Taylor sees the past. But only as it pertains to her work. Hailed by her peers as “a visionary with an instinct for beauty and an eye for the unique” Taylor is undoubtedly a brilliant architect and gifted designer. But she and twin brother, Trevor, share more than a successful business. The two share a childhood wrought with lies and deceit and the kind of abuse that’s disturbingly prevalent in today’s society. Can the love of God and the awesome healing power of His grace and mercy free the twins from their past and open their hearts to the good plan and the future He has for their lives?
Fans of Redeeming Love will appreciate this contemporary story of the awesome power of God to heal the most wounded of souls.
