Deep Down — Brenda Rothert

I'm falling.
Faster.
Further.
Deeper.
Sometimes you fall so hard you can't get back up. My closest companions now are shame and loss. But a sliver of hope lies in the only person I have left in this world â€" the one who's growing inside me.
Survival becomes living again because of my child, and the town where I begin anew. That's where I meet the man who starts to melt the ice inside my heart.
As we get closer, reminders of my past become sharper. Clearer. To confront the pain, I have to discover what's deep down inside me. Is there enough left there to become whole again, or am I too wounded to heal?
