8 posts | 2 read | 14 to read
After serving seventy years in prison for the murder of her sister, Eula, Della Lee has finally returned home to the Texas town of Puerto Pesar. Shes free from confinementand ready to tell her secrets before its too late. She finds a willing audience in journalist Mick Anders, who is reeling after his suspension from a Boston newspaper and in town, reluctantly, to investigate a mysterious portrait of Eula that reportedly sheds tears. He crosses paths with Dr. Paloma Vega, whos visiting Puerto Pesar with her own mission: to take care of her ailing grandmother and to rescue her rebellious younger sister before something terrible happens. Paloma and Mick have their reasons to be in the hot, parched border town whose name translates as Port of Regret. But they dont anticipate how their lives will be changed forever. Moving and engrossing, this dual story alternates between Dellas dark ordeals of the 1940s and Paloma and Micks present-day search for answers'about roots, family, love, and what is truly important in life.

Today's Word: RESPECTFUL

The characters in BEFORE THE RAIN FALLS by Camille Di Maio were very respectful of their elders.

A 2017 favorite. How about that gorgeous cover? #YESVEMBER @Libby1 #YESVEMBER17

Some books are good escape, others good stories. Some show our past, or our present. Some soothe a hurting heart. Some let you walk in another's shoes or put you right into a world you don't inhabit. This one does it all, I loved it. And I love Camille Di Miao's Pinterest story board for this book! There is currently a give away for it- enter here: https://sydsavvy.blogspot.com/2017/05/before-rain-falls-by-camille-di-maio.html. #lonestarlit

This is heating up, and I'm liking it. A story of a woman in Deep South Texas, let out of jail after years of being locked up as "The Murderess." We know there is more to the story as her life intercepts with Mercedes and Paloma, and an Eastern reporter. I'm intrigued! #lonestarlit
