Her Mother's Secrets

When tragedy took everything from Violet, she left home and never looked back. Until now. Her mother's funeral.

Violet hopes she can settle her mother's affairs and quietly return to the life she built after that day. Until she sees him. Skeeter Johnson. The boy who shot her in the face.

In a moment, her past returns to haunt her. A past she thought she left behind. A past, she comes to discover, full of her mother's secrets.
