As the waitress put the coffee on the table Julie asked, "Do you have a newspaper I could read? I need to check the weather." The waitress thought about offering the weather information she overheard the truck drivers discussing earlier but decided she didn't want to spend any more time with this customer than absolutely necessary so she answered, "I certainly do, I'll be right back." Julie didn't answer or even look up as she sipped her coffee. The waitress came back and handed the paper to Julie saying, "There you go." and quickly left. Julie took another sip of her coffee opened the paper and started to turn the page to look for the weather forecast but decided to check out the pictures of, what looked like, a major car/truck accident. After looking at the mangled cars and the semi truck she started reading the article below and just a paragraph down her eyes fell on the name, "Denette Montgomery." She kept reading as the reporter painted Denette and two other men as being heroes. The more she read the angrier she became thinking, Denette is no hero, she is responsible for Bobby's death. As she continued to seethe with hatred and anger she thought, so this is where you've moved to and are you thinking you have hidden from your past? Huh? . . . Well think again!

About the Book
“Doctor, I’ve been on the pill for years and you’re telling me I’m pregnant?” A few weeks later, her doctor recommends Lola to have an abortion because of fetus distress. She says, “No way!”
Lola sees the life of her now-grown daughter, young, healthy, brilliant, and successful, slowly being dissolved by drugs. Her daughter’s living death and the horrors that come along for a free ride to hell are all but consuming Lola, her husband, and their other daughter and her family as well.
One morning, Lola reads an article about a scientific project experimenting with time travel. Secretly, Lola volunteers to travel back in time thirty years, to the day she turned down the abortion. This time she takes the doctor’s advice. Returning, she finds the undoing of her daughter is causing unimaginable consequences and horrors, touching her family and many others. Lola believes the only way out is to go back and undo what she has done. However, it seems that may not be possible. She calls on God to please open the way for her to undo the hell she herself has brought to pass by undoing what God had created.
She cries out, “I must go back for tomorrow.” Lola finds that God’s grace and mercies are more than enough to deal with her daughter’s trials—all the way to victory!
