Narrado por: Tanya Eby

Twenty-four years after losing her daughter in a tragic accident, Carol Denman has finally made peace with Katie's father. But releasing her ex-husband from blame and facing how deeply she held herself responsible were only the first steps in Carol's journey toward peace.

With the pain of her failed first marriage behind her, Carol is determined to mend her broken relationship with her mother. But she soon discovers she isn't the only one who has been hanging on to bitterness. A road trip to face the past leads Carol's mother, Judith, to unearth the seeds of past mistakes and deep resentments in ways neither of them would expect.

The roots of family animosity run deep and thick. While Judith seems hesitant to start digging, Carol commits to pruning away the thorns of the past so she no longer has to live a life without flowers.

Narration is awful

The narrator sound like she reading to a 5 year old. Talks too fast without an emotion.

One step at time

Memories come flying back but once Caroline stops running away from her mother and they both open up about the past then the future blooms into what will be Katie’s house.

Reliving the past, forgiveness and moving on with her life. I enjoyed some of the humor in this book.

I thought it was a little long, but a good story. It made me think back to my own teen years and not to take each moment for granted.

Excellent

A heartwarming continuation of the first book. Loved the way the characters related to each other as the story unfolded.

Love

This was a great follow up to life without water. I have come to care about these characters and didn’t want the story to end
