Carter Lyons brings to life a story based on true heart-wrenching incidents and emotionally gripping episodes that define a woman's courage, strength, and the determination to prevail. ********************************* Twists of fate that change the course of lives are no stranger than those Jessica met the day a sorrowful, unexpected guest, like the lightning from the raging storm outside, all but struck her heart. In fact, something did, causing her to focus on painful visions of a feisty, yet naive young girl in the early 1950's from a close-knit farm belt county of southern Georgia, as she battled the challenges of a driving desire to escape the anguish and family drama which caused her to run. Yet with underlying guilt, Jessica always returned home, and as she learned the key to a lesson in life, we find a secret...one we all personally keep! Tumbling from the shadows come hidden truths and memories of turmoil and heart-felt anguish. Were all life's lessons so harsh? Jessica just couldn't see it, or understand it at all. She understood nothing, it seemed. Not her first wedding night, at the age of fifteen, that left her bruised and broken-hearted; none of her three husbands--all of whom, one way or another, she'd lost. She'd never understood the womanly wiles or wisdoms taught by an older and zestfully independent friend, or the unthinkable threat from one so close, and a daughter she tried to love because of it. And truly, it was all she could do, not to question God when she thought of her sons. She had even sacrificed the love of her life--painfully choosing to be without him. Were her decisions always wrong? Thankfully, through it all, and without realizing it, she did have her mother's strength--but was she now about to lose, Teeny--her only reason for a continued heartbeat? It had taken a lifetime and one distraught, soggy, unexpected visitor on a stormy afternoon, flooded with misunderstood emotion for her to finally understand. Strangely... then with arms folded and eyes closed, Jessica clearly saw it all, as more than the rain poured towards an unpredictable climax. Even though young Jessica's story is flavored with southern grit and tenacity, no matter our generation or location, we all stand with convictions established by a sense of our own Rightly So.
