Description
Sally's childhood wasn't a childhood at all. Cold nights in the backseat of a car. Empty cupboards. A mother who disappeared when she was needed most.
By twelve, she was the one holding the family together-barely.
Years later, Sally does the unthinkable-the one thing people say no mother should ever do.
But what if it was the only way to protect her children?
So she let them go.
Now the past is circling back. One of the children she gave up is standing on her doorstep. And with her return come the questions Sally has tried her whole life not to answer.
Is survival the same as love? And can the damage we do ever be undone?
A raw and emotionally charged psychological thriller, Reasons is part of the When Bad Things Happen series-gripping tales of ordinary women, impossible choices, and the haunting cost of survival.

About the Author
Dr. Sharon A. Mitchell lives on a farm, with her nearest neighbor several miles away. Doesn't that seem like the ideal setting to spark the imagination? She takes long walks with her hundred-pound German Shepherd dogs, Pickles and Dill. (She didn't name them - don't blame her). The Farmers of Goodrich County is a series of clean and wholesome romances set in a western small town, farming region. She's working on her eighth psychological thriller novel for the When Bad Things Happen series. Besides two, three short stories tied to that series, and bonus material at the end of many of the books, she's written six novels, each featuring an autistic child or young adult. Two nonfiction books accompany that autism series. Sharon's been a teacher, counselor, psychologist and consultant for decades and continues to teach university classes to soon-to-be teachers and administrators.
