"A masterful debut, Carolyn Davis Cid's A Mother's Love traces the story of a family's struggle during the early, uncertain days of a global pandemic. Awash in uncertainty and despair, they cling to their roots in a desperate effort to rediscover hope in a world that seems to be teetering on its own doom. A Mother's Love is a meditation on the affirming, awe-inspiring power of family to see us through the darkness." ​ - Kenneth Womack, author of I Am Lemonade Lucy!
