A Mother's Gift

Holly Faye Lovell sure can sing. Everyone in Biscay, Mississippi, knows that. And when at fourteen she becomes the youngest student ever to win a scholarship to the prestigious Haverty School of Music, her dream of pursuing a singing career is on its way. But for the first time in her life, Holly must leave behind her mother, Wanda. Although they donâ€™t have much in the way of money, thereâ€™s always been plenty of love . . . and thereâ€™s always been Wandaâ€™s birthmark, an ugly red scar on the side of her face that makes people who donâ€™t know her turn away. Now that Holly's off with her posh new friends and new life, sheâ€™s ashamed to find herself embarrassed by her mom and their humble background. And Wanda finds herself wanting to reveal a long-hidden secret . . . a secret that could destroy their bond forever.
