AAAK.  I knew the minute I read the synopsis that this would be on my TBR. House of Wind by Laura DeNooyer Wendi Burkham lives in an emotional prison she unwittingly walked into. Nobody understands and her captor holds the keys.  Married to a respected pastor, Wendi lives a life others admire—with two children and a home that reflects faith, stability, and love. But behind closed doors, Wendi is trapped in a cycle of control, manipulation, and emotional abuse no one else can see—and no one would believe. How do you escape when no one believes you need to? For sixteen years, she has stayed silent. Stayed faithful. Stayed afraid. Until one night forces her to choose between the life she's built . . . and the truth she can no longer ignore. Her husband's warning echoes: "Planting wind only reaps a harvest of tornadoes." But what if the storm is the only way out? Learn more on Laura's WEBSITE and follow on GoodReads and BookBub.
