Praise for this book

"The author's talent in making a memoir read like a fiction novel is phenomenal. Author Sikes has an innate talent as a storyteller, bringing the reader into her story and making one feel her emotions."

"As a reader I was thoroughly transported by this incredible love story into a world of drinking, country music, drugs and impropriety--the innocence of a young girl in love and the love of the man who is trying to protect her, even when he finds himself behind prison doors."

"The author writes simply and to the point in an easy to read style. I felt Darlina's pain, her love of Luke and his love for her. I felt like I was there with them. But I know I wasn't because I would never be allowed in a community bar like the ones Darlina experienced in small-town America."
