The Rhythm of Secrets by Patti Lacy

The Rhythm of Secrets

Heart wrenching yet inspiring, The Rhythm of Secrets is the story of one woman’s journey through loss, rejection and loneliness, and secrets that kept her bound by her past. It is also the story of the strength redemption and forgiveness that all long for, but only the saved receive freely.

Sheila Franklin is a proper preachers wife; legalistic, responsible…and suffocating. One phone call changes everything. Samuel. Her son. Her heart. A floodgate is opened and there is no turning back. She must finally tell her story, his story; the whole truth. A truth long buried, and one that may destroy what’s taken more than twenty years to build.

Samuel Allan is a desperate man. He’s on a mission to save the woman that he loves and he’ll do whatever is necessary to secure her freedom. Sheila however, is not what he expected when he planned their meeting. He needs her, more than he could have ever imagined, but his own journey is a dangerous one. One that will put not only his own life in jeopardy, but all those he loves.

The Rhythm of Secrets is a testament of endurance in the face of extreme adversity and through it all, the forgiveness, grace and redemptive power of a God whose love is so strong there is no sin too great, so complete, it can never be undone, so all encompassing, no man is ever truly alone. A powerful story from an author whose work I’ve never read before, but will seek out in the future. My cup runneth over.
