Secrets and Lies All Under The Same Christian Roof In This New Novel

SAVANNAH, Ga. - Oct. 21, 2016 - PRLog -- The natural thing for families to do when they are dealing with a secret is to do everything to keep it a secret. The Summers family is no different. In fact, as a Christian family, they felt as if they had even more to lose.

This book gives a voice and a viewpoint to so many families that felt like they had to sweep issues under the rug in order to keep a good appearance.  It shows what could happen when people choose appearance over true healing.

This new fiction, Rain, delves into the lives of Preacher Kid, Rain Summers and her family.  It's a journey of how each member deals with family secrets that most families, let alone Christian families, deem taboo.  They are proof that all fall short,
and there was nothing glorious going on behind the closed doors of Reverend Summers.
