Still Air
The Portland ME Series
By
Freya Barker
Genre: Contemporary Romance, Multicultural,
Women's Fiction
Deprival haunted
her…
Regret troubled
her…
Silence left her
detached...
A life in the
service of others is both penance and a blessing. She soothes her personal hell
by pulling victims from theirs, helping them on their path to survival; never
finding her own.
When a crippling
blow finally evaporates her last hope, the temptation to give up is strong.
Still, she can’t find it in her to turn her back on those who need her: the
innocent, whose rescue is her perpetual goal.
He was blind,
but now he sees how his family has sifted through his fingers. The reality hits
hard when his son becomes a stranger, slipping deeper into transgression.
Concern has him call on the one person he fears will see his own failures all
too clearly. A woman he’s kept his distance from for his own protection.
What appeared to
be an incompatible pairing, turns out the unyielding bond needed to heal them
all.
"Still Air
was insightful, eye-opening, and I paused numerous times to think about my
relationships with my own children. Anytime a book can evoke a myriad of
emotions while teaching life lessons you'll continue to carry with you, it's a
5-star read." ~ Author CP Smith
"The one
thing you can always be sure of with Freya's writing is that it will pull on
ALL of your emotions; it's expressive, meaningful, sarcastic, so very true to
life, real, hard-hitting and heartbreaking at times and, as is the case with
this series especially, the story is at points raw, painful and occasionally
fugly BUT is is also sweet, hopeful, uplifting, humorous and
heart-warming." ~ Book Loving Pixies
"In my
opinion, there is nothing better than a Freya Barker book. With her final
installment in her Portland, ME series, Still Air, she does not disappoint.
From start to finish I was completely captivated by Pam, Dino, and the entire
Portland family." ~ Author RB Hilliard
"Freya
Barker has woven a rich tapestry of words that draws the reader into the world
she has created in her Portland, ME series. She wraps up the reader in a cocoon
of well-written, tightly plotted words and emotions." ~ Barren Acres
