Deeper Than Love (The Berotte Family, #2)

by Monica Walters

“Don’t. Someone once told me that babies are gifts from God, but sometimes, we aren’t able to receive that gift. Instead of bringing a child in this life that will cause more turmoil for you and possibly for the child as well, it would be better to give that gift back to God until you’re ready to receive it. The environment may not be conducive to raising a child in. The joys of motherhood are endless, but only when you’re ready and are mentally healthy. However, it’s your decision.”

She said people showed their true colors when someone died, especially when that person was a matriarch of the family, the glue holding them together.

“If you meant what you said and you’re mine, then it’s my job to help you. I want you to be whole. You can’t be whole if you won’t admit you’re broken. I got’chu, baby. I’m here for you every step of the way.”
