With Love from the Inside

De: Angela Pisel

Narrado por: Carol Monda, Andi Arndt

Angela Pisel's poignant debut explores the complex relationship between a mother and a daughter, their quest to discover the truth, and whether or not love can prevail - even from behind bars.

Grace Bradshaw knows the exact minute she will die. On death row for murdering her infant son, her last breath will be taken on February 15 at 12:01 a.m. Eleven years, five months, and 27 days separate her from the last time she heard her precious daughter's voice and the final moment she'd heard anyone call her mom. Out of appeals, she can focus on only one thing - reconnecting with her daughter and making sure she knows the truth.

Secrets lurk behind Sophie Logan's big house and even bigger bank account. Every day when she kisses her husband good-bye, she worries her fabricated life is about to come crumbling down. No one knows the unforgivable things her mother did to tear her family apart - not her husband, who is a prominent plastic surgeon, or her "synthetic" friends who live in her upscale neighborhood.

Grace's looming execution date forces Sophie to revisit the traumatic events that haunted her childhood. When she returns to her hometown, she discovers new evidence about her baby brother William's death 17 years ago - proof that might set her mother free but shatter her own marriage forever.

Sophie must quickly decide if her mother is the monster the prosecutor made her out to be or the loving mother she remembers - the one who painted her toenails glittery pink and plastered Post-it notes with inspiring quotes ("100 percent failure rate if you don't try") all over Sophie's bathroom mirror - before their time runs out.

I don’t usually write reviews but this book changed my way of thinking. It will make you smile and ugly cry at the same time. A must read

Heartwarming and Gutwrenching

I really enjoyed this one. I could have done with out the religious references, but it wasn't overdone and in this case, it was appropriate. I loved Sophie and Grace, and the story of their relationship. I don't want to give anything away, but the journey to mend their relationship was heartwarming. I listened to this on audible, and the narrators did an excellent job with the characters. This was one of those books where I was anxious to walk the dog or drive my car so that I could listen to it. It grabbed me from the outset, and never let go.
