A sample of chapters from the second and final book in the Winter Seedlings Series.
This series deals with survival and recovery from childhood sexual abuse, but it is also about building your own family when your own abandons you.
Touches on a range of topics such as abuse justified by religion, the no-perfect-solution acts for survival, lgbt parenting, honesty, family secrets, self-acceptance, fate, and how life gives no guarantees.
Book two can be read and enjoyed without reading book one, but there are spoilers in book two which will take some of the enjoyment away from reading the books out of order.

I do not in anyway support or encourage any form of abuse......Lastly this is my first story and due to my crazy schedule I am slow to update.
