This month we will be reading "Until the Last Day" by Sarah Dawson Powell. There will be a Q&A with the author as well as book signing and pictures.
Bryce
I feel like I’m hanging by a thread. Being a single father and a small business owner is not easy. I work too much, don’t spend enough time with my daughter, and never have enough money. My dating life is virtually non-existent. I’m not sure what the solution is, but something has to give.
And now, after nearly a year, Trinity materializes out of thin air with a bruised face, a battered spirit, and nowhere to go. I’m not sure if I can trust her given all the rumors I’ve heard. But when it comes down to it, she is the mother of my child, and I owe her at least a chance to redeem herself if nothing more.


Trinity
I made a mistake. A big one. Now I know better. I misplaced my trust and by the time I realized my mistake, I was trapped. When I finally get the courage to rescue myself, I have no idea what to do next. The pieces of the life I left behind are nothing but shards of threadbare memories.
There are no do-overs. All I can do is build up from ground zero and hope that my daughter will remember who I am. With any luck, maybe Bryce can find fragments of the girl I used to be somewhere in the mess that I am now. I’m doing my best to get my life back by letting myself heal from the hurt and taking the time I need for myself, for Bryce, and for our daughter.
But there’s something from the past that keeps lingering in this small town, and I can only come up with one way to handle it.
