He loved her, but his tragic past kept him from fully committing. And Isabelle was tired of waiting.Then lavender scented letters began arriving in Joshua’s mailbox. The letters were signed “Mama,” and they filled in the missing pieces of his early life with his mother, including why her own turbulent love story caused her to walk into the ocean one day in her best suit.
