BOOK BLURB:
Good Intentions is the tragic story of one woman’s efforts to help
a teenage mother. Megan, fourteen and pregnant, needed a mom. Tracy,
thirty-nine and already raising a large family, gave her a home. Neither was
ready for what happened next.
Tracy Reynolds’ life is not her own. She works the night
shift at the hospital and has three boys, two girls and a husband who works the
opposite shift along with a menagerie of rescued pets. Somehow, she and her
husband, Tim, have made it work with love, faith, and impeccable ethics.
Adding fourteen-year-old Megan and her newborn son to the
mix was supposed to be uncomplicated. The adoption agency made it sound so
easy. They painted Megan has a good child who had a rough life. She needed love
and understanding and the stability of a respectable home and family. Tracy and
Tim fit the bill and were fast tracked through the system and before they knew
it trouble landed on their doorstep. Megan.
Megan rejected their family values and resisted from every
direction when it came to learning how to live within their family dynamics and
taking care of her son. She missed her friends and the people she knew when she
worked as a prostitute. Despite court orders and her probation officer’s
warnings, Megan secretly reconnected with her old friends and lover.
The Reynolds’ family spun out of control. Not one would be
untouched by Hurricane Megan’s path of destruction.
Deceptions. Infidelity. Drugs. Child abuse. Cancer. Sexual
abuse. Home invasion. The Reynolds’ went through it all. Would their family
ever be the same?

Some background information about the book: I wrote it after reading a story in my local newspaper about a family who had a similar experience. I contacted the reporter who got me in touch with the family. I interviewed them extensively along with local and state agencies involved to get as much realism and drama into the story that I could. I hope you like it. And if you do, please say so in your comments and reviews on Amazon.com
