Song of Renewal received glowing acclaim upon its hardcover release. Now, Emily Sue Harvey has dramatically expanded this extraordinarily touching work to allow us to experience its riches at new levels. The Wakefields seem to have everything. Garrison is a hugely successful graphic artist. Liza is an active member of the community and a patron of the arts. Their 16-year-old daughter Angel is bright, beautiful, and a gifted dancer. At the same time, though, they have traded away many of their dreams. Garrison gave up a future as an accomplished painter to make money. Liza suspended her own dancing career to raise a family. And Angel is setting aside her ambitions to live her mothers dream. When Angel gets into a car accident that kills her first love, the Wakefields lives turn on a dime. While Angel lies in a coma from which even the best prognosis is devastating, Garrison and Liza sit by her side, their once-passionate marriage in tatters. As their heartache over Angel builds, Garrison and Liza struggle to rediscover who they once were - and who they were meant to be. They come to realize that it will take everything they have within themselves to heal Angel, heal their hearts, and renew the power of their love. At once romantic, inspiring, and empowering, Song of Renewal is a rare bauble of a novel, one with something to say to every family.
Emily Sue Harvey, s first novel, Song of Renewal, was praised by New York Times bestselling author Jill Marie Landis as ''an uplifting, heartwarming story,'' by bestselling author Kay Allenbaugh as a work that will ''linger in the memory long after readers put it aside,'' and by Coffee Time Romance as ''a must-read book for anyone doing a little soul searching.'' New York Times bestselling author Steve Berry said, ''It captures your attention, and whets your appetite for more,'' while Peeking between the Pages called it ''quite simply a beautiful book.'' Now, in Flavors, this master storyteller of the human heart sweeps us along with twelve-year-old Sadie Ann Melton as she enters a life-altering season. The summer of 1950 will change everything for her. For in that summer, she will embark on an odyssey at once heartbreakingly tender and crushingly brutal. At times, she will experience more darkness than she has ever witnessed before. At others, she will thrill to lightness and joy she never imagined. By summer, s end, the Melton women in Sadie, s journey – loving her, coaxing her, and commanding her andash will help shape her into the woman she becomes. And they will expose Sadie to all of the flavors of life as she savors the world that she brings into being. Filled with charm, wisdom, and the smorgasbord of emotions that comes with the first steps into adulthood, Flavors once again proves Emily Sue Harvey, s unique ability to touch our souls with her unforgettable stories.
