Book Quote of the Day...

"How does a tiny heart harbor so many clashing sentiments? One moment it is devoted. The next, purely disdaining. Weeping at tremendous heartache and then laughing, lighthearted, through the same tears. How can a heart rage so fierce as to boil blood while it turns to ice? How is this done?"

"Love accepts you as yourself. It will never ask you to be someone else."
“There are many things in this world that we do not know, that we cannot see, that we do not perceive or comprehend. But I have faith in a god who sees and perceives all, who knows and comprehends all. It is God upon whom I rely.”
"It may look crazy to you, but if you had traveled another’s road in their shoes, you would see and understand the underlying sanity in their actions. This is why we should love more and judge less."

Dramatic Fiction Novel
Summary:
Annabelle, the girl who was overlooked, unwanted, insignificant, worthless.
Annabelle Fancher lives with her mother and her often-absent, alcoholic father. When he is not on the road, his presence at home creates heightened anxiety in his wife and daughter—fear caused by years of abuse. Annabelle copes with her circumstances by escaping into popular fairy tales where she dreams characters to life. When her dreams cross over into waking fantasies, and the ghostly image of a dreamed character appears before her, Annabelle begins a real struggle to separate reality from pretend and sanity from beautiful madness.
This brave, young girl tenderly acquaints the reader with her lonely struggles while sharing her courage in the face of personal adversity. Hers is a story where realism and fantasy beautifully intertwine.
This fictional tale does an honest job of mirroring the unfortunate reality of many young people whose home lives are private nightmares unobserved by the outside world. Most of the events in this book were taken from the lives of individuals known by the author.

Dark Fantasy Fiction & Romance
Summary:
Vengeance is a monster of appetite, forever bloodthirsty and never filled.
Tarishe is a modest village surrounded by fortress walls meant to keep out one thing: werewolves. In truth, the wolves are scarcely bothersome and seldom seen excepting one night a year when a blood-red moon appears. This full Tarishe moon never fails to herald the arrival of an entire pack of hairy beasts, drawn to the village like greedy dragons to golden treasure.
It is difficult enough to protect a young family in this world of dangerous creatures, but such a feat proves near impossible when an old witch bent on vengeance casts a curse that manipulates both heart and mind. The battle for survival is not only with a sword but an internal struggle to love those the curse has targeted for hatred, and to hate the one who through evil enchantment manipulates her enemy’s affections. How long will it take to learn that the old monster, vengeance, is insatiable?
This Tarishe tale is a thrilling piece of fiction told from the Queen of Werefolk's point of view.

Sci-Fi Fantasy & Romance
Summary:
She was young, beautiful, and the last living heir to the throne. Why wouldn't two brothers fight to influence her?
Sevenah Williams lived a quiet farm life with her parents and best friend, Ian. Life was good and predictable until the unexpected yanked her from the only reality she remembered. Forced from home, her tragic and forgotten past comes together revealing that Sevenah is in fact heir to the throne of Harrowbeth; she is the last living of royal blood able to don a peculiar heirloom necklace. Given the new name, Eena, she and Ian set off for a new home, dodging nightmarish enemies in the process. All the while, great powers granted by the enchanted necklace slowly emerge and develop.
Eena is assisted by a militia sent to retrieve their queen, commanded by the bossy and intimidating Captain Derian. Though Ian and Derian endeavor to protect her, Eena crosses paths with a charming, silver-tongued stranger. She finds herself forced to choose sides in a civil war she hardly understands. Which rival has the power to convince her of his nobleness to gain her ultimate support?
