by L. Y. Marlow (Author)
Having escaped a life of poverty, teen pregnancy and domestic violence, and put herself through sixteen years of night school to earn three degrees as a single mother, L.Y. Marlow never imagined that she would one day walk away from a prosperous corporate career to dedicate her life to founding Saving Promise--a national nonprofit organization inspired by her granddaughter's story, a little girl named Promise.
Through her provocative and deeply moving storytelling style, L.Y. takes you on a captivating journey as she shares candidly her most terrifying moments and monsters--from soul crushing struggles to painful loss. And just when she finds the courage to face her fears, she counters the biggest monster of all. It would take some wise words from her three-year-old granddaughter to inspire L.Y. to surrender and embrace a purposeful life--the gifts, the lessons and the blessing.
