Mary Nichols (Amazon) "A heartfelt read written as if she was talking to you face to face. I laughed with you, I cried with you. I felt my heart break with yours, tears ran and I screamed on the inside with you. I travelled a roller coaster of emotions with some good some awful. But best of all I celebrated and rejoiced with you. I felt redemption and victory. I accepted inner peace with you and smiled knowing we have a father who walks with us through the good and the bad no matter where we have been or what we have done. His love is unconditional agape love. Thankyou for your story. It means more than you will prob ever understand and it will touch and change the lives of many." Angela (Amazon)
