| 520 | |a "After escaping an abusive marriage, Cara Brookins had four children to provide for and no one to turn to but herself. In desperate need of a home but without the means to buy one, she did something incredible.

It would be the hardest thing she had ever done.

She had convinced herself that if they could build a house, they could rebuild their broken family" -- Provided by publisher. | ||
