Prologue

Eric Camden could feel it and couldn't explain it. It was a feeling he'd never felt before, a feeling that something big was going to happen and soon. As he lay their in the warmth of his wife's arms, the feeling came and now it was tormenting him. He couldn't stop wondering if it was good or if it was bad.

Ruthie Camden boarded the plan to California with a look of utter disappointment. Sadly her summer in Scotland was coming to an end. She was going home and back to all the reminders of her broken heart.

Sandy Jameson looked down at her sleeping son. How could she have done this made such a mistake? A mistake that would affect her son's life and the lives of so many others.

Lucy Camden Kinkirk sat in the room that had been meant for her unborn sons that would remain unborn forever. The baby blue bunny covered room seemed to be closing in around her causing the tears to fall once more. She felt betrayed by life and God, even by herself.

Kevin Kinkirk could feel his wife slipping slowly away from him and it seemed like there was nothing he could do to change that. His heart was already broken but it seemed to be breaking more and more with each day as he watched his wife fall apart. She just couldn't seem to let go and say goodbye.

Robbie Palmer knew about never letting go. He'd never let go of the Camdens and he never could. He'd been in Florida with his mother and brothers for the past couple of years but it was time to go home, home to his real home and his family, the Camden family. It had been way too long and it was time to return.

Matt too felt it had been way too long, but for something completely different his wife in his arms. He missed sex! And her of course. Kids really do change everything he thought to himself.

Martin completely agreed with Matt. Kids changed everything not that he didn't love his son Aaron, but it was a lot of work having to juggle a job and school work along with parenting. He'd begun to feel he spent more time driving back and forth than with his son.

Mary had a secret that was coming back into her life once again, bringing with it a very big decision, a decision involving a lot of lives and some of them children's lives. It was decision she had to make and soon.

Annie knew something was wrong when she heard her two younger sons scream for help. Their voice calling to her with terror and worry. Something was wrong. Very wrong.
