A Feeling That I Belonged - Paperback

by D. L. W. Butler (Author)

She thought she knew her family's story. She was wrong.

In, A Feeling That I Belonged, the past refuses to stay buried as a family's hidden legacy unfolds through generations of women bound by love, divided by choices, haunted by silence and present with absence.

Tracey is tasked with honoring her grandmother and is forced into the same space as her estranged mother, Diane-a woman whose absence left more questions than answers. But grief has a way of loosening truths long kept in the dark. What begins as remembrance quickly turns into revelation.

Hidden letters surface. Memories fracture. Secrets once buried begin to breathe. Love reveals its complications, and betrayal takes on new meaning as the story they believed begins to unravel.

Spanning from the quiet weight of the rural South to the restless pulse of New York City, this powerful multigenerational saga explores identity, distance, and the emotional cost of what goes unspoken.

Because some stories live in the open... And others survive in silence, defined by what's missing. And sometimes, finding where you belong means confronting everything single thing you were never told.

What we inherit isn't always what want... and never what we expected.
