She dominated the old picture with laughter and love as grand as the vibrant memories of her overshadowing our new lives. I know recreating the past isn’t possible, and unity for a new family portrait isn’t much easier. That is something I can’t tolerate. I’m Powers Ashland, and I need to fix this, because that’s what I do, even if some details might be beyond repair.
Can I help my family overcome the past, even when the present is not in my control? Will we reunite for the sake of healing and find the peace I know we each deserve? I owe it to them and to my future with Tess to make sure it happens. With a faded family photograph to remind us, perhaps we’ll find a way.
