Painting A Family

Mothers and daughters: Times change, dynamics shift, and challenges flourish. Love is supposed to conquer all. But can it ever erase the missteps of the past?From generation to generation, confrontation between mothers and daughters is not uncommon; sparks fly, rifts occur, yet somehow love holds together until-or unless-things conspire to erupt beyond healing. In Painting a Family, Jane endures a strict Catholic upbringing in the 1960s and 1970s, when good girls do as they are told and do not stray from the nest, except to marry the right man and have babies. But, longing to be an artist, Jane dares to follow her dream -until she meets handsome, stalwart Tim O'Connell. They marry and go on to have four daughters. But when her girls are nearly grown, Jane is faced with a challenge for which she is utterly unprepared. With twists and turns along the way, the mother and daughters shield themselves with secrets, test their loyalties to one another, and try to survive as a family. Until the ties that bind threaten to break, once and for all.
