Sometimes, the worst lies are the ones we tell ourselves. They build and build into a façade of transparency and false truth that we present to the world...until it comes crashing down because of that one person who sees right into you. “Just one more time.” “It’s not even like that.” “I’m not tripping about it.” “I’m fine. Really.”

Publisher's Summary
As the oldest of three girls, Renee at a young age knew she was born into a special family of women. These women are blessed with unique gifts from God but others may disagree. Although Renee, Leah, and Tiffany were born in Georgia, their family roots were planted in New Orleans where the Creole cuisine fills your soul, the swamps run deep with blood and voodoo is a religion to some.
At the age of 13, Renee’s life is forever changed as well as her sister’s. Family secrets are revealed: Broken friendships, sexual assault, and even murder all while testing the family’s faith in God. But her family has something that others don’t have...a chance to get even in the worst way and no one would ever know.

umm over promise under deliver
Had to make myself finish. Although the story was ok, there was a lot of unnecessary dragging out. There wasn't a clear line of where the story was going. AND THEN IT ENDS ABRUPTLY. The story ends with lots of unfinished loose ends with no book 2.
