This book is an emotional ride. Aiden Bell, the happy go lucky Bell brother, has some secrets he's hiding.  Lots of emotional baggage that just eats away at you.  The entire Bell history is surrounded by the church and some of it's flaws. Each brother's story on their own has interesting facets. Aiden decides to become a monk and the story takes you through the events that brought him there and how he ultimately deals with his life choices.  It is truly a story of redemption for a flawed individual and a broken family. Thought provoking and inspiring. I loved this book.
