Deep Cries Out
By Allison Nance
When stress blindsides Aimee Rojas, a tenacious single mother at the height of her high-powered career, she returns home to Galveston Island on the coast of Texas.
Surrounded by family and friends, she soon realizes accepting help from those closest to her comes with its own nuanced complexities.
As Aimee grapples with the physical and mental effects of her illness, she has no idea her healing will involve the love of a man whose past is just as complicated as her own, and the surfacing of a lie which might not only end her career, but her life.

A bit of background on how you came to write Deep Cries Out?
The genesis of this book grew out of the need to process overwhelming anxiety and grief after the loss of a life that my husband and I had envisioned for our family. In 2022, we moved to Japan to help revitalize an English cafe ministry. Six months in, I became very ill with a Vitamin D deficiency—the same thing that afflicts Aimee in Deep Cries Out. We were forced to move back to the US very quickly in order to figure out the diagnosis, and for my mental health. I wrote several large portions of Deep Cries Out while I was still in the throes of anxiety and depression, and over the course of fourteen monthsof writing, turned my struggle into the basis of a fictional creation.
