As an adult, she built her life to look pleasant and ordinary, with a wonderful husband, two amazing boys, and a thriving career. But despite these blessings, she still felt the tugging emptiness of a missing piece. <p/> At 39, a long-forgotten birth certificate in an old file cabinet sparked a curiosity Bonnie couldn't ignore. Determined to uncover her family's secrets and understand the home she was born into, Bonnie embarked on a quest that would leave her forever changed. Returning to the culture, places, and stories that shaped her, her search led her to soul-shaking discoveries about her identity, human kindness and what it truly means to belong. <p/> The profoundly moving journey of learning to embrace our true worth, <i>Sweet Like Jasmine</i> celebrates how God uses our unique and broken stories to create a beautiful mosaic of His love, one life at a time.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<i>Sweet Like Jasmine</i> feels like having a cup of tea with a kind and brave friend who reminds you of God's love, His grace, and how His unseen hand is in all of our stories.
