Delve into the melodramatic lives of three close-knit families, caught in a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal in book 1 of the My House Series. It's always been just me and my two younger siblings... well, and our best friends... and our mom, before she was taken from us. As for our sperm donor, he can rot in prison for the rest of his miserable life for all I care. Anyway, did I mention I'm also married? Yeah well, I'm married, and we've also been separated for over a year now. Times got hard, I was stressed and well I... I don't really wanna get into that right now. I just wanna live a drama free life with my family and friends, but I guess that's asking for too much... FML. Mike Harmon, successful business owner, eldest of two younger siblings, Marlon and MyIesha, and currently in a failing marriage with his, now, separated wife, Jakyra... is complicated to say the least. After a year, Jakyra returns, but not without conflict... conflict that could have been avoided if Mike hadn't lied in the first place. Now, with Jakyra back in his life, past mistakes resurface, regret settles deep, and guilt constantly plagues him, but so is the lingering deep seated love he still has for her. Even though Mike hopes for a second chance, the first domino, that he so carelessly began, has fallen, and the effects of his actions has caused a downward spiral that he has no idea how to stop. Throw in kidnapping, lies, infidelity, fighting, and secrets, and you have a recipe for disaster. Mike's found himself in the middle of a shitstorm of drama that he was most definitely trying to avoid. "I don't want to come between you and your brother, if that's what you think? I just want to be a part of the family again. I ask that you forgive me, and please don't be upset with Mike." MyIesha pointed in Jakyra's face and rudely stated, "Oh, believe me bitch, you couldn't take my place if you tried. And you will never, EVER be a part of this family again, do you hear me? NEVER! And you can take that apology and shove it up your ass!" Mike stopped her before she went any further. He'd become infuriated as he slapped her hand out of Jakyra's face. Getting in between Jakyra and his fuming sister, he bellowed. "Stop MyIesha! That's enough!"

Libby Henry unabashedly tells her story in this lively memoir set in central Kentucky. She rides her pony rough-shod through the lives of Earl and Beal, her parents, singing The Little Orange Bird. All Earl wants is some "peace," hard to find with a daughter some fifty years his junior, with a croaky voice and coke bottle glasses perparing for a song and dance career, with a dash of fashion. Beal lives vicariously through Libby's short-lived modeling career, her romances, and connections, pleased when she approves, and tending to the unhinged wihen not so pleased. Earl is still looking for "peace," while weathering the car wrecks, the vacatons, and the unexpected in his home-life. And then there's those trips to Lincoln county where Libby's maternal grandfather is a big man in the community, a man of property who also owns the stockyard and is a deputy sheriff, though he hasn't qutie caught up to the times and modernized his house with running water. There's the little old lady who "shot me a dog once," Davy Crockett and Sam Houston make an appearance, and that "bad man" who got his head knocked into a wall by Earl. And darker times too, times of illness, loss, mortgage fraud and divorce. Libby shares all with an enduring sense of humor and a welcoming voice that draw you near and keep you turning pages.

The first book in the Ada's House series, The Hope of Refuge is a moving story of love, hope, and new beginnings from New York Times bestselling author Cindy Woodsmall. The widowed mother of a little girl, Cara Moore is struggling against poverty, fear, and a relentless stalker. When her stalker ransacks her home, Cara and her daughter, Lori, flee New York City for an Amish community, eager for a fresh start. But she discovers that long-held secrets about her family history ripple beneath the surface of Dry Lake, Pennsylvania, and it’s no place for an outsider. One Amish man, Ephraim Mast, dares to fulfill the command he believes that he received from God—“Be me to her”—despite how it threatens his way of life. While Ephraim tries to do what he believes is right, will he be shunned and lose everything, including the guarded single mother who simply longs for a better life? A complete opposite of the hard, untrusting Cara, Ephraim’s sister Deborah also finds her dreams crumbling when the man she has pledged to build a life with begins withdrawing from Deborah and his community, including his mother, Ada Stoltzfus. Can the run-down house that Ada envisions transforming unite them toward a common purpose—or will it push Mahlon away forever?
