Editorial Review / Publisher's Information:

Product Description
She was my first kiss. My first love. She was a little match girl who could see the future in the flame of a candle. She was a runaway who taught me more about life than anyone has before or since. And when she was gone my innocence left with her.

As I begin to write, a part of me feels as if I am awakening something best left dead and buried, or at least buried. We can bury the past, but it never really dies. The experience of that winter has grown on my soul like ivy climbing the outside of a home, growing until it begins to tear and tug at the brick and mortar.

I pray I can still get the story right. My memory, like my eyesight, has waned with age. Still, there are things that become clearer to me as I grow older. This much I know: too many things were kept secret in those days. Things that never should have been hidden. And things that should have.

This book made me cry. I don't recall ever reading another book that caused me to cry.

 • A Sweetly Told Heartbreaker...
09 February, 2009

This story is told from a young man's perspective about how he and his little brother help a teen runaway. The characters are very real, they seem to jump off the page. It is a real page turner that holds you until the bitter end. Yes, I wished it ended differently. However, the experience of reading this book was so positive that I still highly recommend it from beginning to the bitter end. Enjoy!

 • Good But Disappointing . . .
09 February, 2009

Grace is a fictional story intended to highlight the wretchedness of child abuse in our society. It does accomplish this very well and Evans does his usual good job developing characters so real you think you really know them. My complaint is a lack of a meaningful plot, parents who were portrayed as simply not observant, and a poorly written ending. The plot was many pages of 'days in the life of' leading to an ending that was expected but sudden and just not satisfying. In that regard, 'Grace' does replicate life. I'm not sorry I took the time to read the book but I did expect more.
