Product Description
Calvina Jade Westbrook was a twenty-nine-year-old former prostitute whose life had been tarnished by tragedy, violence, and suffering. She was a single mother of five young boys all under the age of eight, with no family to lean on for support.

After her life had become extremely unbearable, she dragged her sons to the nearest bus station, seeking a better way of life. Hours later, they arrived in Stillwater on the evening of Thanksgiving in the midst of a cold winter storm.

Forty years later, CJ passed away, leaving her now-adult children, accompanied by their own families, to tell of her tainted struggles.

They stood in front of the same Baptist church—in which they had found comfort early in their lives—to reveal their mother’s years of shame. It wouldn’t be easy disclosing all she had kept hidden, but they had promised her they would. And they had never broken a promise to her, nor she to them.
