Pain, grief, and regret are present throughout the story but hope, faith, love, and forgiveness eventually overcome all obstacles.They say you can&#8217;t run from your past. In Becca&#8217;s case, her attempts to escape the aftermath of her father&#8217;s infamous trial and conviction only added to her stress levels. A new name and a new job across the country seemed to call for a reinvented history but Becca was not entirely comfortable with the lies that required. All too soon, Becca&#8217;s past caught up to her and the repercussions were not pretty.\u00a0 In many ways Becca&#8217;s situation was ironic due to her background, but God used those circumstances to eventually give her the home and family she had always yearned to have. One particularly difficult decision forced Becca to totally rely on God&#8217;s grace to see her through.<\/p>\n<p>Becca&#8217;s employer\/friend Isaac Hughes is just the type man that Becca has dreamed of but he too has some personal issues that need to be laid to rest. Although he has loved and been loved by his adoptive parents, Isaac still has questions about his origins that he would like to have answered before he pursues a life with Becca.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All My Belongings&#8221; is dramatic, suspenseful, and has several surprises in store for the reader. I highly recommend this one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>This book was provided for review by LitFuse Publicity.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-16970\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/All-My-Belongings.jpg\" alt=\"All My Belongings\" width=\"400\" height=\"621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/All-My-Belongings.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/All-My-Belongings-96x150.jpg 96w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/All-My-Belongings-150x232.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>A new life and a new identity can\u2019t protect Becca from a past that refuses to go away.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>After spending years running from the shame her father put on her family, Jayne is determined not to let him steal her future in the same way he stole her childhood.
