The Fight for Golden Dawn is an intense read. You can not help but feeling for "Dani". Brook is a "strong" character who is trhown into a no-win situation. Ultimatly she makes the right decisions. Golden Dawn pulled on my heart strings! I felt a whirlwind of emotions, empathy, sympathy, and anger. I highly recoomend this book to all.
Great read for locals

I enjoyed this captivating read by Jessie Terwilliger. It was relateable and very interesting, especially for readers very local to the Inland Empire. Many of the landmarks mentioned are indeed real; which makes the novel very believeable, as most of us know of, or actually know children in the "system." I am anticipating the release of Jessie's next novel, with her talent and intellect, I'm sure I'll be just as entertained.
