What I Remember Most

By: Cathy Lamb

Narrated by: Meredith Mitchell

Grenadine Scotch Wild has only vague memories of the parents she last saw when she was six years old. But she's never forgotten their final, panicked words to her, urging Grenadine to run. The mystery of their disappearance is just one more frayed strand in a life that has lately begun to unravel completely. One year into her rocky marriage to Covey, a well-known investor, he is arrested for fraud and embezzlement. And Grenadine, now a successful collage artist and painter, is facing jail time despite her innocence.

With Covey refusing to exonerate her unless she comes back to him, Grenadine once again takes the advice given to her so long ago: she runs. Hiding out in a mountain town in central Oregon until the trial, she finds work as a bartender and as assistant to a furniture maker who is busy rebuilding his own life. But even far from everything she knew, Grenadine is granted a rare chance, as potentially liberating as it is terrifying - to face down her past, her fears, and live a life as beautiful and colorful as one of her paintings.

Critic reviews

"Lamb is an awesome storyteller and moves seamlessly from the past to the present." ( RT Book Reviews)

Great story of survival

This is my second Cathy Lamb story. The 2 I've read have a horrible seedy life or terrible situations her very creative characters experience. Great deal of humor. Ms. Lamb's writing is different than anyone I have read before. Interesting to learn about NW coast living. I look forward to reading more of her books.

Very moving story.

I felt her pain, despair, lose, strength, resolve, and her undying love for her people. What a great character!.

Amazing

This is an amazing story of challenges and triumph. Talented author and creative navigator. I will definitely look for more by this author

Excellent!

This is a great read! I would recommend to anyone looking for a great story to read.

Perseverance

Grenadine was such a memorable character. She preserved through many, many trying and difficult situations. Like a rubber clown she always bounced back no matter what life threw in her way. I love happy endings. So glad she and Cade had purposeful future. This world needs more people like Grenadine and Cade.
