Synopsis

Laura is a 53-year-old woman who discovers family secrets, loses her husband, wins some cash and learns, helping others isn't as easy as she thought it would be. The family secrets shatter the idyllic image she and her sister, Susan, had about their childhood in Kerrville, Texas. The loss of her husband in the mountains of Wyoming, shatters her confidence in herself and reality shatters her ideas about giving to others. Chocolate and Pinot Noir take the edge off their problems and that combination comes with its own set of difficulties.

"Surviving the Truth by Sharon Monroe captivated me right from the beginning. It was filled with sorrow, deep emotions, and suspense. This book was an emotional read, and the chapters transitioned smoothly into one another. The conclusion was utterly surprising, completely unlike anything I could have imagined."
