Small town Lewiston, AR harbors big secrets finally brought to light in JUDGING JUSTINE. JUDGING JUSTINE concludes the highly successful Rumor Has It miniseries by Penny Richards with a bang.Singing sensation Justine doesn't want to flaunt her pregnancy, if only because that's what everyone in Lewiston would expect. She knew she should have come back sooner, but the painful anticipation was enough to keep her postponing her return. At last, as her mother lies dying, Justine returns to the town that holds the secrets to her emotional scars. Her mother dies without a word being passed between mother and daughter, without even learning that Justine is pregnant, leaving Justine filled with sorrow and remorse. Justine knows her return to Lewiston will provide grist for the gossip mill. Distancing herself physically and mentally from her family and Lewiston has been the only way to survive. With her mother gone, perhaps Justine can finally tell her secrets to someone, so that she can rid herself of the resentment and anger she's carried around for seventeen years. With the baby coming, maybe she can risk telling Wes that he's going to be a father. But then, that also brings incredible risk and fear.Wes Grayson fell hard for Justine seventeen years ago. No other woman had made him feel complete. Thinking she was out of his system, he found his way backstage one night in Chicago only to learn he still has it for her. Now his paintings only present her face over and over again, just as her memory lingers in his imagination. It broke Wes' heart when Justine abruptly left Lewiston seventeen years ago; little does he know the same secret that drove her suddenly away could cost him his heart again.A shocking, memorable tale, JUDGING JUSTINE demonstrates Penny Richards' story-telling style at her finest. A captivating of secrets revealed, JUDGING JUSTINE finds its way to healing and love. Entertaining and emotionally riveting, JUDGING JUSTINE concludes a miniseries made of keepers. Very highly recommended.

Judging Justine

I have enjoyed the entire "Rumor has it" series. I especially liked this book. This book dealt with something that most romances don't always deal with as in the exploitation of children or teenagers and how that can affect their life. I would love to read any other books by Mrs. Richards she is an exceptional writer.
