Heaven's Eyes

The Scandals of Macklin

De: Jacqueline Andrews

Narrado por: Jacqueline J. Andrews

Macklin, Mississippi, is a town where everybody knows everybody - a place where there is no such thing as a secret. The town has seen its share of scandals, especially when the legendary Shirley Brown swept through town.

The women in town thrive on the juicy gossip that they hear about each other, but each one of them has her own skeletons and past sins to live with. The men in Macklin have always been supportive of their wives and significant others, but they also have demons of their own.

When what's been in the dark comes to light, the town starts to unravel. Heaven’s eyes were watching and were there to witness this story of lust, scandal, suspense, love, hate, pain, excitement, sin, and redemption.

Where there is love, there can be forgiveness.

This book is hard to put down once you begin. First, the narration is magnificent. Andrews paints a picture of each character with her voice, and I found myself “taking sides” with certain characters based on this verbal portrayal.

Second, issues of infidelity, dishonesty, race, and substance abuse are dealt with in this fictionary tale in such a way as to make you wonder what you would do if you found yourself in the shoes of the characters. But help is always near through the wise teachings of Ruth Ann, the matriarch of the family. She’s old and she knows things, because heaven speaks to her.

Finally, my biggest takeaway from this book is that no matter how much pain and suffering we go through in life, it does not have to break us because where there is love, there can be forgiveness—and forgiving others is what can help us through whatever circumstances may come.

I recommend this book to anyone who is hurting and struggling to find peace in the midst of it all.
