| A gripping tale of a woman's courage to escape abuse and find a second chance at life and love. Desperate to escape her abusive marriage, Lilly Crawford files for divorce and slips away from her small east Texas hometown with little more than the clothes on her back. Pointing her twelve-year-old car east, she hopes to find a new beginning. When her car breaks down in Louisiana, Lilly finds unexpected employment as the caregiver for a wealthy neurosurgeon named Adam Wakefield, who lost his sight in a recent carjacking. At first, this handsome, brooding man reminds her too much of the angry husband she left behind, and she reminds him of how far he has fallen from the self-assured man he once was. But as the two spend long days together, an unexpected bond develops—one that will be deeply tested. Lilly must confront her violent husband before she can ever hope to move on and truly discover a second chance at life and love. Trouble Don't Last Always is a stunning, gripping, and unforgettable tale told with Francis Ray's trademark emotion and passion. This moving African American women's fiction novel explores themes of abuse, resilience, and the power of love to heal even the deepest wounds. |
