She knew how to survive. Learning to feel safe would ask something different of her.
Ten years after her release from prison, Veronica walks into a detention center beside Nadine, this time as an instructor. Her tailored suit speaks of the woman she has become. But when the doors slam behind her, the memories return.
Asked to share her testimony, Veronica revisits the life she once lived: painful choices, motherhood behind bars, and the woman whose kindness helped her discover a faith she could build on.
Freedom brings its own hard work. Her children need more than promises. Relationships test the defenses that once protected her. And when love enters her life, Veronica must decide whether she can let someone close while remaining true to herself.
Soft, Safe & Secure is a Christian fiction novella about a woman learning to live the transformation she testifies about. Through difficult conversations, unexpected friendships, prayer, and the ordinary work of beginning again, Veronica discovers what healing can look like beyond the prison gates.
For the woman who has always been called strong, yet longs for somewhere she can finally exhale.
