Illumination book award.
"Exceptionally well written, making it a consistently compelling read from beginning to end.“ One of those rare stories that will linger in the mind and memory of the reader long after the book itself has been finished." James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief, Midwest Book Review. IDPA, Reviewer's Choice.

Sibyl Trimble has always lived a life of comfort. As the daughter of a prominent Oklahoma banker and an eager supporter of her father's socialist ideals, she’s grown up in fine clothes, fast cars, and speakeasy jazz—even as the Great Depression rattles the world around her.

But everything changes when she meets Fremont, a blue-eyed drifter with a quiet strength and a past full of hardship. Drawn to his faith and resilience, Sibyl begins to question the foundation of the life she’s always known. As their connection deepens, so does her inner struggle—between loyalty to her father’s vision and the pull of a love rooted in something far deeper than politics.

Set against the stark realities of 1930s Oklahoma, A Promise to Break is a story of awakening—of one woman’s journey to discover truth, purpose, and a love that challenges everything she thought she believed. In the end, Sibyl must choose: cling to the world she was born into or step into the one her heart knows is right.
