Mariah and Daniel Lawson are well on their way to achieving the American dream when a sudden and tragic diagnosis turns their world upside down. Abandoning all hopes of having children, the couple leave their friends and family in cold and rainy Washington state, along with a very lucrative promotion, and head to Texas, banking everything they have on the slim chance that the steady dose of sunshine will lessen Daniel Lawson's debilitating symptoms. Struggling to make ends meet on a minimum wage salary, Mariah Lawson begins to mourn the children she knows she will never have when she meets pregnant, drug-addicted Juliana Farling who is about to have an abortion. Latching on to the small glimmer of hope Juliana offers, Mariah takes this troubled teen under her wing and convinces her to carry the baby to term, thinking that she and Daniel will adopt the infant once it is born. But what will Mariah do when she finds out that it is all a scam and Juliana is only using her for her money?Based on an amazing true story of love, commitment and faith despite seemingly insurmountable odds, the Jagged Edge of Broken Glass dives deep into the broken and shattered lives of three very different people, revealing the heartfelt need for unconditional love and acceptance that lies within us all.
