Publisher:  Dawn L. Chiletz
Released: October 10, 2015

Official Synopsis:

Broken
Scarred
Invisible

My name is Everly. I’m a stay-at-home mom of two beautiful kids. I have a husband who provides for our family, but I don’t think he loves me anymore. Inside I die a little every day.

I am not enough. Not enough of a mother, a wife, a friend, a woman… I’m not enough to get you to stay, to love me or to accept me. There’s a battle I’m fighting. It’s a battle within myself.

I’m a fixer; I help others. I try to make everyone around me happy and whole, yet I haven’t figured out a way to fix myself.

When time and circumstances push me to my breaking point, I’m forced to take a hard look at what I’ve become. A failed marriage, a failed attempt at a career, and a failed attempt at being a mother. I’m not enough to hold any of it.

This is my story. It’s about trying to figure out how to be happy with who I am, how to love myself again, and how to allow others to love me. When a second chance at love is standing in front of me, will I be able to see anything more than my broken reflection in his eyes? Will I be able to rebuild and reinvent myself when everything falls apart? Can I find the love I truly deserve?

Will I ever be enough?

(This book is a standalone)  


My Review:

The book starts out in the grocery store.  Normal, basic, everyday life. It was refreshing.  It made me think that it could be something that anyone could relate to instead of some over the top sex scene or futuristic setting.  

The book is about the life of Everly Haley; her thoughts and feelings. She is a mother of two.  A woman who doubts herself and everything about her life. The book has many twists and turns.  Throughout the twists and turns she learns so much about herself and the woman that everyone else saw her to be.


Basically, WOW! This book was amazing! I thought it was a little bit predictable, but still an amazing read.  The author has a beautiful message within the book about loving yourself and knowing that you are enough for anyone including yourself. I encourage everyone to pick this book up.  Believe in yourself and know that no matter what... you are enough!
