"Winter Seedlings is a story of survival, as the fragile new hearts of two girls must make it through the cold and isolating storm that is the effect of child sexual abuse. Jute's mother has finally moved them out of hell, a.k.a Earl's trailer. But they are still in Maryville, Tennessee, only six miles from that creep. If she could, Jute would have made herself invisible. But instead, she has made herself repulsive, even frightening. It kept his hands off her, so it doesn't matter if people mistake her for a boy or call her a freak. Jute is certain she doesn't need love anyway, doesn't want it. She doesn't even know how to love. But if she did, she would love Allie. Allie is beautiful, wears vintage dresses, and craves approval. She has suffered her own abuse, but she blames herself. She knows if she was a better person, a person worth loving, a person willing to give up everything, a man would love her. If only Allie could see herself through Jute's eyes. When Allie inadvertently puts Jute in danger, the are forced to face their demons. If they drop their guard, will love be able to penetrate their scars and repair their hearts? Or will their self-loathing destroy them before it can?"--Publisher.
