Dire Consequences

A turn from faith. A mother’s decision. A father’s loss. A daughter’s demise. A love denied.
Fear and desperation lead to secrets and lies. Attractive, twenty-eight year-old single mother, Celia Joseph, is forced to betray Mark Ramsey, the father of her 5 year-old daughter, Marissa. However, Lyn Ramsey, Mark’s obsessive wife, later finds out the truth and sets out to prove it to her obstinate husband.
After fleeing to Florida, Celia returns to Jamaica with Marissa and a deadly secret. She settles in May Pen, Clarendon, as far away as possible from Montego Bay and the Ramsey family. Because of her past and the secret she carries, she avoids a relationship with Kurt Daniels, a successful and determined lawyer who’d already formed a bond with Marissa.
Eventually Celia is caught in her own web and now the very lie she told returns to her like a boomerang. Tragedy rocks this busy town as innocent lives are lost and families are torn apart. Three women hold a secret that, unbeknownst to them, can heal broken hearts and re-unite a family that has been separated for nearly three decades.
Can Celia forgive herself because she was unable to protect her child this time? Only God’s love through Kurt Daniels, and Barbara Bell, a woman who comes to Celia’s aid at a time she needed it the most, can comfort her, restore her faith, and teach her to accept love again.
