FOR FANS OF LISA WINGATE
From award-winning author Fayla Ott comes a "Grit Lit" story about secrets in the south. It's 1979, and there are two entities that are sacred in the Mississippi Delta: the church and the family. If things aren't what they're supposed to be, then you keep your mouth shut. And if you're a white child like Tara, you certainly don't go seeking solitude at a black woman's house. Unless you're looking for trouble.Tara suffers abuse as she grows up, not only from her mother, but from men in the church. Wandering into the forbidden "Color Town", she meets Onnie, a scarred black woman with secrets of her own. Despite their strong bond of friendship, Onnie is unable to rescue Tara from her nightmarish childhood, but the two remain close until tragedy and loss strikes, and Tara runs away from all she has ever known. Thinking she is finally free from her lifelong abuse, she settles in the "Big Easy" city of New Orleans, and enters another world where she accepts her fate as a forever victim. Until she has to go back to where it all started. Can she move past the pain to forgive her mother and accept a love she doesn't trust? Join Tara on her journey to healing in the deep south where family loyalty is as strong as cotton and the secrets are just as plentiful.
