Almost 40 years old, Brenda Bennett can’t get Mitch Taylor out of her mind. Their on and off relationship was destroyed by many things, including his arrest and imprisonment for drug dealing. I loved that Brenda tried to redeem Mitch and never really gave up on him. When he gets out of prison, she goes to see him, telling herself it’ll provide the closure she needs with their broken relationship.



“I fell hard for the big brute that was Mitch Taylor. Mitch knew he could never be good enough for Brenda. He believed his sins were almost as unforgivable as his father’s. Mitch tried so hard take care of his younger sister Julia when his father never cared for them and only wanted his next fix. After his old man sold Julia to a drug dealer, Mitch searched high and low for her, ultimately believing she was dead.



I’ll never forget this story. It had such passion, love, determination, and hope. ( )
