With sensitivity and grace, New York Times bestselling author
Kimberla Lawson Roby addresses a very real and serious issue in an
inspiring tale of one family's mission to shed light into the
darkest corner of their lives.On the outside, twelve-year-old
Jillian Maxwell is the perfect child--astraight-A student, helpful
and cooperative, never getting into trouble. She seems to have
everything a girl could want: a big, beautiful new home, an adoring
little sister, a mother who cares about her, and an attentive
stepfather.
But inside, Jillian harbors a terrible secret.Too frightened to
tell, convinced that her friends and loved ones, especially her
mother, won't understand--and worse, will blame her--Jillian
endures her pain in silence. When her dilemma only intensifies with
time, the bright, hardworking girl turns sullen, becoming
increasingly disinterested in her studies. But on theverge of
losing everything, Jillian will discover she has more strength than
she ever imagined . . . and the power to change her fate.
