Before I Say Goodbye
After a twenty-year absence, Rikki Crockett has come home. When she left,
she was young, hurt, and angry—betrayed by her parents and abandoned by her best
friend, Dante Rushton. She vowed never to return, but when life takes a sudden
and unexpected turn, home may be the only place to find a future for her two
children.
Dante Rushton also endured a difficult childhood. Yet he found a safe-haven in
his LDS ward who surrounded him with love and helped him grow to be a man of
faith. Now a happily married father of four, he serves as bishop to the people
who once shaped his future.
The old-timers in the ward are thrilled to welcome Rikki home, but Dante’s wife,
Becca, is torn between wanting to befriend Rikki and wanting her and her
rebellious teenage daughter as far away from her family as possible. Why has
Rikki returned now, and what does she want from Becca and Dante?
Before I Say Goodbye is the compelling story of two families helping each
other face an uncertain future, and of a woman who makes peace with her past to
discover the last and greatest love of all.
