Dear Isabella - Paperback

Dear Isabella is a true story of pain, tragedy and loss but, most of all, a tale of one mother's determination and love for her children. Finding herself pregnant, Maria Stephens begins a secret diary, hiding it from her abusive partner so that she can pour into its pages every thought for her unborn daughter. Later, the letters shift from Isabella to the reader, narrating the escalating abuse Maria endures in her relationship and eventual marriage. Despite its challenging subject, Dear Isabella faces the tough issues head on, and proves that even in the midst of devastating loss, hope and faith shine through. This is a heartbreaking yet beautiful story.
