The Maid (Molly the Maid, #1)

by Nita Prose

‘A clean home, a clean body, and clean company. Do you know where that leads?’ I could not have been more than five years old when she taught me this. I looked way up at her as she spoke. ‘Where does it lead, Gran?’ ‘To a clean conscience. To a good, clean life.’

That’s the trouble with pain. It’s as contagious as a disease. It spreads from the person who first endured it to those who love them most.

Everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end.
