She confessed because she thought Wade did it, he is in shock when she shares this with him. Amy, I really liked this book although I haven't read the other 22 books in the series. Amy, his childhood sweetheart, overhears the confession Gracie makes to her son.

Wade and Amy are still in love with each other even after not talking or seeing each other for all those years, but each is afraid to let the other know because they don't think the feelings are still mutual. When Amy overhears Gracie, she doesn't know what to believe, she knows in her heart Wade could not have done such a thing, but if his Mother thinks he could have murdered his Father, it puts doubts in her mind.

You will have to read the book to see if Wade killed his father, if Amy forgives him, and if Wade didn't commit the murder and if Amy doesn't forgive him what happens. This book shows how far a Mother will go to protect her son, how you can change your life around and come to know God even in the worst of times. Once you let God in your life, faith will help you have patience to let the truth come out. It is a quick read and very good, Janet did a great job.
