About this listen

What would you do if a secret was causing your family to crumble?

Is there a secret terrible enough that it should never be revealed, not even if it was tearing a family apart? For more than five decades, Emma Bauer has kept one - carefully guarding it with all her strength, and for more than five decades, that choice has haunted her life and also the lives of her daughters and granddaughter. Is it too late for wrongs to be righted? Does Emma even have the strength to let the healing power of truth work in her family?

The story of four generations of women and the powerful effects their choices have had on their lives is at the heart of Eve's Daughters, an epic novel from author Lynn Austin. Grand in scope but tender and personal at the same time, it will please you as a fan of contemporary or historical fiction.

Exploring times from World War I to the 1980s, Eve's Daughters is an insightful look at mothers, daughters, sisters, and families that allows you to see a little bit of yourself through the characters' triumphs, struggles, and hard-tested faith.

Yearning for love, dignity, and freedom, the four generations of women must come to terms with the choices they have made. Healing comes when the past is forgiven, but only when they embrace God's forgiveness can they shatter the cycle that has ruled their lives over the decades.

enjoyable and great narration.

This is a fascinating family drama which spans a century. The author cleverly weaves historical facts into the fiction and shares Christian faith without preaching. I enjoyed the story.

I got lost in this book

Absolutely loved it. The weaving of stories made me feel a part of the family and I knew each character intimately. I even cried in some parts.

A Story Worth Reading!

Eve’s Daughters is a story following the women from five generations of of a family. It tells the story of pain, struggle, hurt, the efforts to understand what is hidden. But it’s also a story of redemptive love, surrender, grace. It describes (through a work of fiction) what happens when we let God, our heavenly Father, help us to live the truth no matter the consequences. I loved Eve’s Story!
Only down side for me was how long it took me to distinguish the different characters as the narrator read the book. It almost put me off, but I’m glad I persevered.

A beautiful story

I thoroughly enjoyed this story about mother’s and daughters. It was a very believable story which talked of sin and lies and the generational impact. It also talked of the grace of God and the power of forgiveness. I got to know the characters so well I’ll miss them now that the story has ended.

Wonderful Recount of History Through Generational Story Told

What a terrific window into history and what life was like for the rich and the poor throughout time. To see how children and parents sacrifice time and time again in the hope of bettering the lives of others. How mistakes can be regretted for a lifetime and how forgiveness is miraculous and how God brings grace out of things gone wrong. Highly recommend. Brilliant reading by the narrator
