Three national bestselling authors join talents in a multi-dimensional novel that illustrates the importance of love, family, and forgiveness.
After
a lifetime of womanizing, making babies, and then disappearing and taking no
responsibility for his actions, Amos Davis has finally reached an
impasse—literally crashing his car down a one-way street. It may be the only
road to redemption for the aging musician, now afflicted with Alzheimer’s
disease, for it has brought together the three daughters he abandoned. But when
it comes to their deadbeat dad, their hearts may already be sealed…
Cass,
the child of Amos’s mistress, has had enough heartache, from losing her mother
to the tragic end of her marriage. Amos was never there for her—why should this
talented cake maker be sweet to him now?
Toya,
always the “other woman” in her affairs with married men, was deeply scarred by
Amos’s public denial of her existence years ago. Will seeing him again send her
further down a troubled path?
A
gifted writer, Tomiko channels her pain into her stories of the father she
never knew. In her imagined world, she is safe—but will she ever risk her heart
on real love?
A
powerful interplay of memory and reality, this emotionally taut novel weaves
the voices of three authors to deliver an unforgettable tale of one man’s
struggle to make peace with his failures, his family and the destinies of those
who must forgive to move forward with their own lives and dreams.
