Danielle Stewart remains my #1 and on my pedestal as she
ALWAYS delivers an outstanding read and this read is 10+ stars! I could not put
this book down, was captured from the cover on. WOW.
Betty's story takes us back to a time where unlikely
friendships are born and love exists through courage, strength and determination
to stand up for what is right during the turbulent civil rights times when
discrimination was rampant. My eyes fill with tears as I write this because NO
one should have to endure what the main characters in this story did. I laughed,
I cried, I was happy, I was angry, I was sad, I was every emotion possible in
reading this amazing story.
Danielle writes in such a skillfully mastered way that she
delivers a brilliant historically woven read that captures your heart, breaks
your heart and puts your heart back together again. You understand what makes
the characters WHO they are. What an eye opener for me of events that truly
happened back in those times.
I personally think everyone should read this story. If you
lived it, it may help you heal. If you weren't aware, it will open your eyes
towards the injustice that was done.
Bravo Danielle for tackling a very difficult subject with
such finesse. What an absolute GEM of a read. I can only imagine the emotions
that Danielle went through in writing this beautifully crafted work. Outstanding
and can't wait for more!
