Rain
A Novel of Family, Faith, and Finding Truth
“Healing begins where silence ends.”
Some families keep secrets.
Some secrets keep families.
In the Summers family, appearances are everything. As the daughter of a respected pastor, seventeen-year-old Rain has mastered the art of the perfect Sunday smile while hiding devastating secrets. But when her sister Michelle’s relationship reaches a dangerous breaking point and a mysterious woman named Sydney returns to unearth long-buried family truths, the carefully constructed facade begins to crumble.
As Rain navigates the complicated terrain of first love with a steady, supportive boyfriend, she must also confront disturbing memories, family patterns threatening to repeat, and the courage needed to speak truth in a family built on silence.
With her siblings each fighting their own battles and her mother caught between loyalty and protection, Rain discovers that some truths must be spoken aloud to finally break generational cycles. Sometimes the most painful revelations lead to the most beautiful beginnings.
