It happens, you get married and think you will live happily ever after. Things are how you thought they would be then you get pregnant, gain weight and life as you knew it will never be the same.
Katie Franklin lived that life. She married her high school sweetheart Rick, and the couple had a little boy named Brandon. Yes, she had gained weight with her pregnancy. She wasn't the same girl he had married when it came to looks but still his constant name calling only dug deep into her soul. The mean hateful words made her bitter and soon those words made her strong.
The once content housewife, and mother, begins to change not for Rick, not for anyone but herself. She sheds the pounds, gains confidence and finds herself then she outgrows his abuse and him. The problem is she loves him and doesn't want her son to grow up without a father.
She finds refuge and her new life at a place called Searchers. The once frumpy housewife learns to love herself and finds herself in love with another man but can she leave Rick, and the life she had planned?
This was so sweet and sexy and filled with questions a lot of women find themselves asking. I adored Katie and her strength, her courage and the fight in her. Searchers is such a true story. I felt pulled inside of Katie so many times. It's a must read and a page-turner.
Excellent job.Reviewed by: Ruby
