DOWNLOAD EBOOKSilent Cries of a Military Wife is a terrifying, sometimes hilarious, sometimes downright devastating truth that I lived for over a decade. For years, like many others, I accepted things that no woman should have. I allowed the one person who was supposed to give me love and respect treat me like I was less than nothing. I thought by accepting the treatment, at some point, he would see that what he was doing was hurting me and it would force him to change, but sadly, that never happened. I watched myself change as a woman, mother, daughter, and friend into a person I didn’t even recognize. I asked the military and those around me for help, but my cries repeatedly went unnoticed. When I finally received help, I was ostracized by those whom I called friends because of my decision to stay. Now I want to share my story with all of you and all those women who are silenced.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKKeisha’s sister, Leah, was raped and killed by the next-door neighbor that lured her to his house, promising her a color television if she shoveled his snow. One year later, her aunt was killed by her ex-boyfriend. After such tragedy, her house size grew by two as her aunt’s children moved in. Rodney, her oldest, was in a very dark place and lived seeing his mother die. He later began to take from Keisha what was not up for negotiation, and her brother began to molest her as well, as if Rodney hooked him up. Keisha looked for love on the outside, but she was gang-raped, and she became pregnant with twins. As Keisha admired the scenery, the lights flickered on the stage, and the music was jumping. A cutie named Cheryl sat beside her, and they conversed deeply. As the room got hot, the consciousness that she had wouldn’t allow her to sleep with her knowing she had AIDS. They became good friends, but the ego in Keisha got Cheryl and her unborn child killed. Keisha left their murderer paraplegic and speechless. She killed the guys that raped her and took their money, and one of their girls she made her own. Then she was caught slipping, putting her trust in someone that wasn’t trustworthy, and almost lost her life.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe debut novel of the dazzling Silken Magic series, set in the mythical kingdom of Tyrrhia, where courtly politics, magic, and the silk trade intersect. When the owl called, Luciana’s heart filled with dread. The first time she had heard the owl call three times, she had been barely five—and her father had died. Over the years that followed, this herald of misfortune had warned of death several times, and on each occasion she had lost someone dear to her. Now she was a grown woman with too many for whose safety she feared. Luciana’s husband, Stefano, Duca di Drago, brother to the queen of Tyrrhia, was currently away fighting in the war against the Turks. Her grandmother, the Romani Queen, was at an age when death might easily claim her companionship. And Luciana’s own beloved sister Alessandra was at the Tyrrhian court, an innocent among courtiers far too well-versed in intrigue. But the truth would prove far more dreadful than Luciana’s worst fears. For not only was Alessa dead, but her very soul was imperiled by the way she had died. Luciana had no choice but to journey to the White King’s Court to seek out the one responsible. Yet the trail she must uncover would lead Luciana into the gravest danger. And even the silken magic of the Rom might not prove strong enough to defeat the dark sorcery which had stolen her sister’s very spirit, and now threatened to turn this power against the royal court.
