Lillian Reynolds faces the darkness of mankind daily as a licensed mental health counselor specializing in trauma. Her interest in psychology began during childhood. While exploring her grandparent’s northern Michigan lakefront property, she realized something was different about her family tree.
Now living in the historic and romantic city of St. Augustine, Florida, she is drawn to the struggles her clients overcome, observing as they find purpose and meaning in their suffering.
She acknowledges the work of God in what she does but struggles to accept His work in her own life. Due to her past of complex trauma, she views Him as distant and punishing. Now in a race against an environmental storm, with deception in her heart, she sets off on a self-destructive path driven by the storm within. Is she worth saving, or will she succumb to the darkness she so easily battles for others?
Experience a love story through the lens of a psychotherapist who offers therapeutic techniques and glimpses of hope while navigating an often tragic and painful world.

I have read this book several times now and I just love it! I had never before read a book that includes romance, suspense, spirituality, and therapeutic techniques all in one and it was so intriguing and thought provoking. If you’ve ever considered therapy but not yet taken that leap, this book does a great job of introducing you to that world in a non-judgmental, educational, and entertaining way. There are some hard topics in this book and the author navigates you through it with respect, gentleness, and class. I also loved how short the chapters were! It made it such a quick, enjoyable read. Overall, the message of this book is amazing and I can’t wait to see some more from this author.

My wife suggested I read this and I found it so moving and heartfelt. I enjoyed how the recollection of her clients lead back to one theme. It’s a story of brokenness and redemption.

This was such a good book! Lillian’s story was an engaging and realistic blend of her life experiences, client sessions and biblical truth. The author is passionate about sharing the life-changing message of Jesus Christ in a compassionate and welcoming way. I appreciated learning more about therapy techniques too and she explained them well. Reading about the clients Lillian reflected on made me stop and think about events in my own life. It is refreshing to read a book that has such purpose and is so well-written and interesting. I will be recommending it to others!

So many great stories of how people healed and became their true selves through the love and grace of God and others and learned to love and forgive themselves. It showed the humanity of all of us, but that we have the ability to work and to heal. Taught that we have to trust others and learn to love and accept ourselves. Loved reading about all the familiar areas of St Augustine. Reminded me of the difficult and loving work that therapists do, giving so much of themselves to help others.

WOW! This book is beyond incredible beyond words. It takes you on a real-life journey through ups and downs. There are layers of challenges, mystery and thrills all wrapped into spirituality. Every chapter leaves you wanting more. I read this book in 48 hours because I was unable to put it down. Emotions flow through each chapter; joy, sadness, laughter and tears. The way the author wrote this book to bring each character and circumstance to life is absolutely amazing. The message, meaning and communication throughout the book is unlike any other you’ll ever read. I’m looking forward to another book by this author.
