Renata and the Fall from Grace — Becky Doughty

The perfect man. The perfect home. The perfect family. But when it all comes tumbling down...

MEET RENATA GUSTAFSON

Renata Gustafson Dixon's life is going exactly the way she wants it. A beautiful home. A wonderful husband and four boys who make her life oh-so-sweet and (almost) complete. Then Juliette, the oldest of the four Gustafson girls, opens up a can of worms labeled 'Angela Clinton' at a G-FOURce meeting, and things are said and accusations made that can't be taken back. When tragedy strikes, sending Renata's carefully-constructed world spinning out beyond her control, she must learn to set aside her own will and lean on the strength of those who love her before she loses all hope for the future.

MEET THE GUSTAFSON GIRLS

Orphaned by a drunk driver, it's the G-FOURce--the Gustafson Four club--that unites the sisters when their differences would tear them apart. All grown now, Juliette has become the quintessential doormat, Renata, the self-appointed matriarchal figure. Phoebe is, according to Ren, borderline narcissistic, and Gia is on the verge of a major identitycrisis.

Then there's Angela Clinton, the senior class darling who plowed her cherry 1970 el Camino into the Gustafons' car that fateful night. She's up for parole and word is she's moving back to town. Is the G-FOURce strong enough to keep the sisters together asthey step into the eye of the storm that's been brewing for the last fifteen years?

Note: The Gustafson Girls series is Christian Women's Fiction with strong elements of Romance.
