She didn’t come home to face the past. She came home because there was no other choice. Not when your mama is facing her final days. But the past trips the heels of the present in this gripping story of hidden fears, lurking evil and heartbreaking truths. Truths that must come to light no matter what consequences they bring. Anne Kellwyn has a secret. It’s cost her everything to keep it, including her marriage. Now she may have to pay an even higher price to reveal the truth, but is she too late? Back home to care for her dying mother, Anne is faced with the past she ran from and a future she can’t have. A future that includes Joe McIntyre and the happily-ever-after she dreamed of years ago. Chief of Police Joe McIntyre takes his position seriously. A lead-by-example Christian, he’s put to the test when his ex-wife appears with another man’s child after eight years of silence. Anger and pride challenge his small-town hero existence, driving him out of his comfort zone. Faced with choices he made eight years before, can he tackle the present to ease Anne’s future so she’s no longer “Running on Empty”? Show more
