Wanda B. Campbell
Silver Lining
Available Now!
5 out of 5 books


Marlissa Scott-Jennings is a highly respected physician that has everything going for her. That is, until the past that she was trying to forget comes back to haunt her. In a flash, her life is in shambles, and she takes comfort in the only thing she thinks can solve her problems: alcohol. Like Marlissa, Leon Scott has the ideal life. Loving wife, children, and a very successful business. Unfortunately, an unforeseen event takes place, and he finds solace in liquor. Marlissa and Leon are complete strangers that meet and come to depend on one another. Through their battle with alcoholism, these friends must tackle their most difficult challenge yet...forgiveness and redemption. Will their families be able to forgive them for what they've done?

Silver Lining by Wanda B. Campbell takes you on a journey of two people that had life by a string and could pull it in any direction they choose. That was, until tragedy strikes both of their lives and they become addicts. The one thing I enjoyed about this book is how Campbell painted the picture of both Marlissa and Leon. Both were thought they were perfect and untouchable. They were successful and had families that adored them. The one thing that they both were lacking was God. I liked how the author didn't just focus on how bad things had gotten in their lives, but instead the challenges they had to encounter on their journey to sobriety. Even though this book is christian fiction, the author does not step up on a soap box and start to preach to you about forgiveness, redemption, etc. Instead, Silver Lining is like a guide to comfort you through the tribulations that you or someone you know are going through. I highly recommend reading Silver Lining.

New Review : In the Face of the Sun : Denny S. Bryce

  5 out of 5 books I fell in love with Denny S. Bryce’s writing with her first book, Wild Women and the Blues. I absolutely love historical fiction, so I was eager to read In the Face of the Sun. Ba-byyyy, it did not disappoint! In the Face of the Sun is a dual timeline novel, switching between Los Angeles (Daisy - 1928) and Chicago (Frankie - 1968). Daisy's had a hard life, and it shows, as her personality completely changes between the timelines. Back in 1928, she was a hardworking, honest person that cared about her family and friends. In 1968, she’s drinking, smoking, and doing the absolute most, a complete opposite of sweet innocent Daisy. Frankie’s life isn’t peaches and cream, she’s pregnant and escaping her abusive husband. Her and her aunt Daisy pick up and head for L.A., for the adventure of a lifetime. You’ve got to read this book, I couldn’t put it down. I loved that there are history lessons interwoven in the pages, you’re reading and also learning at the same time. De...
