Others
notice the way he blurts out anything that comes into his
mind, how he
cannot foresee consequences, that he's more child than
teenager. But
his mother sees a boy with a heart as open and wide as the
ocean.
Laurel
Lockwood lost her son once through neglect. She's spent the
rest of her
life determined to make up for her mistakes, and she's
succeeded in
becoming a committed, protective parent�maybe even
overprotective.
Still, she loosens her grip just enough to let Andy attend a
local
church social�a decision that terrifies her when the church
is consumed
by fire. But Andy survives�and remarkably, saves other
children from
the flames. Laurel watches as Andy basks in the role of
unlikely hero
and the world finally sees her Andy, the sweet boy she knows
as well as
her own heart.
But when the suspicion of arson is
cast upon
Andy, Laurel must ask herself how well she really knows her
son�and how
far she'll go to keep her promise to protect him forever.
I love your books and just bought Before the Storm. Can't wait to start it. Good luck with any new projects and have a wonderful Labor Day weekend. (Mary Branham 6:34pm August 1, 2008)
