Desert Rice
By Angela Scott
Samantha Jean Haggert is on the run
with her brother Jacob after her mother dies. They must stick together since
Sam is only twelve and Jacob fifteen they will do anything they can to keep
from having Child Protective Services separate them. Since Sam begins to draw
too much unwanted attention from men Jacob has her cut off all her hair and
hides her beauty under baggy clothes and a baseball cap. But everything begins
to unravel when they finally find people whom want them to become part of their
family and the truth may tear them all apart.
Angela Scott has written an emotional
rollercoaster of a novel with such a surprising twist towards the end that will
make you cringe and cry out at the injustice of what has happened. I loved it,
my husband on the other hand decided headphones was the way to go after some of
the more heinous secrets where revealed. I say this more to point out that it
may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it does have one of the best ending I
have come across in a long time. I am trying to be as vague as possible so I
will not give anything away but also to do this novel justice, it is truly an
amazing read so well written and emotional charged that it is hard to set down.
Warning though you may want a big box of tissues at hand just in case you turn
into a geyser, it’s that good.
