Cries Of Innocence (Cries Series) (Volume 1) Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
In the small coastal community of Silverton, an evil presence resides. Over time most residents have grown numb to its insidious and subtle presence. A few have resisted. Seventeen-year-old Bren has lived a life of abuse, discrimination, and exclusion. She blames her father, the town drunk, for every misery she has ever endured. Instead of surviving within her situation like others do, Bren is fiery mad and begins to push against a system she can’t begin to understand. When her efforts fail, she decides to escape with her mom. They never make it. Bren is whisked away to The Haven, home of her paternal grandmother, GG. Under her tutelage, Bren is awakened to a destiny she could have never envisioned. She learns about truth and witnesses another side of life. In the process of self-discovery, she has to deal with her own weaknesses, fears, and unforgiveness. As evil approaches Bren asks, “Who are we up against?” The answer strikes deep within her breast. Can she stand firm? Can she look into the eyes of hate and forgive? If she can’t, her greatest fear will be realized.

Bren hasn't had it easy. She's the daughter of the town drunk, her mom looks the other way, and Bren's boyfriend wants what she's not ready to give. Unable to stand it any longer, and feeling very alone, she can't wait to get a one-way ticket out of town.With all her struggles, she can't imagine things getting worse. Yet they do. There's an evil brewing, and Bren will need some powerful teaching to stand up to it. Thanks to help from unlucky sources, Bren becomes stronger. But will it be enough?Every once in a while, I read a book I know will really impact readers. Beyond the well-executed storyline, the characters, the good writing, this book will resonate with people and stay with them long after the last page.Abuse, both physical and mention, is sadly what too many young women have to face. Evil is real. But there's hope. This story showcases that. But, note, there are mature situations. Most of the book, my heart broke for Bren and her mother. I wanted to tell them to run and get away from the pain. But staying to fight, especially with a power all of us can access, was inspiring. I love these characters.If you believe in the power of the human spirit, in the power of faith and belief, I highly recommend Cries of Innocence. It's a journey, and one you won't soon forget.Note: I was an editor on this novel (Indie Books Gone Wild). A positive review was not requested or guaranteed; the opinions expressed are my own.
Bren is a young 17 year old girl with struggles that i was able to relate to at that age. Once you start to read you can't put the book down. Her life has been a roller coaster of abuse both mental and physical. The daughter of the town drunk every day was a fight for her. She desperately wanted to get away with her mother but they had to fight the evil. With faith and belief they received God's blessing. You will not forget this book easily.

I admit I am a friend of the author's but in no way does that affect this review! Excellent! I got sucked in very quickly and didn't want to put it down. It's quite different from Depression Cookies, Angela's other book (which is also good) but it's supposed to be. The characters are all quite believable and have their story to tell. And you'll also get a copy of the Krispy Kreme Donut cake recipe!
A book that is hard to put down once you start.
