Living a “normal” life doesn’t always mean that things will always be good. Bad things happen to even the best of people, and this is a life lesson Willie must now learn when tragedy strikes her close-knit group of friends.
As she continues to grow and change, Willie knows that she is far from the girl who arrived in Oklahoma little over a year ago. She’s growing, changing, and working on putting the pieces together in her life – just as her friends struggle to do the same.
“You never know, Willie. Death doesn’t discriminate by age or gender or social status. It’s one of the few things that doesn’t care. When it comes for you, it comes. It could be today, tomorrow, or a hundred years from now, but when your time is up, it’s up. There’s nothing you can do to change that.”-Dakota
This is the fourth volume in The Growing Roots series and is fairly new. The first volume, Less Than Humble Beginnings, was a #1 Best Seller on the English-written book charts in Germany. The entire series as a whole has been well-received. This current volume only has two reviews that rate it four stars, but it is very new and reviews are still coming in.
