Keira
Johnson, a 50-year-old mother of two grown sons, believes she lives a
good Christian life without secrets-- until she discovers a life-jarring
fact her late mother kept hidden all her life. Kiera was born out of
wedlock, and the man she had always known as her father had adopted her
as an infant.
Meanwhile, Keira's beloved 17-year-old niece, Kirsten,
has just discovered an unwanted pregnancy. Her boyfriend, Jose, is bound
for college and Kirsten does not know what to do. As the family comes
together for a reunion, Keira and Kirsten struggle with their fractured
pasts and jumbled present. Will truth and honesty be the catalysts that
allow the entire family to find peace?
Inspired by events in Lauraine Snelling's own life, REUNION is the author's finest novel to
date.

My Review
What
an emotional read. This is the first book that I have read by Lauraine
Snelling and I am very happy that I picked it up. She weaves a bunch of
plots together and you can't wait to find out what is going to happen
next. As you
are reading this book you feel as if you are right there part of the
family and all of the issues that they are facing. I really liked how
everything turned out in the end! I highly recommend this book!
