“Rise Above the Truth” is a story of two people who seemed destined to meet.  Misty’s artistic drawings have intrigued a man enough to hire her to paint his office.  He eventually becomes her mentor.  Yet for the first few years, these two people were merely business acquaintances.  From this, a deep and touching friendship blossomed.  Rebecca Thein tells her story in such a fashion you feel you are the leading character; feeling every emotion; every thought of Misty, and even those feelings of her mentor when secrets begin to come to light.
 
The clandestine events Misty is to stumble upon almost shatters her spirits, however it also opens the hearts of all involved.  Forgiveness was allowed to seep in, allowing many unanswered questions to be revealed.  Rebecca’s writing is excellent, and the storyline will keep you reading until you come to the mysterious conclusion.  Her writing has earned her five, well-deserved stars.  I found this book to be warm-hearted and yet quite thought-provoking.

I loved this book. Rebecca takes you inside the emotions of the strong, yet somehow fragile character of Misty with amazing skill.This is a book that keeps you turning the pages to discover the next family secret that has been so carefully hidden from her. Each twist and turn in the maze of her life delivers the reader to a final and satisfying ending.Great job. Write some more.
