This
is a very, very short story, but I found it to be impactful. The story
tells what two young girls did in retaliation to a neighbor they
disliked and the dire consequences of their actions.
Ey Wade (Wade into Reviews) rated it 5-STARS ***** on Amazon
Mind blowing. This will leave your mouth hanging open. The ridiculous,
revengeful anger of innocent children travels this story along and
through your veins until it settles in your mind and heart and blows
away your sense of righteousness. Tess Allan wrote this short story with
just enough words that nothing else needs to be said. Sometimes
prejudice just out rules love and the end is destruction. This is truly a
great book.
Introducing the works of romance novelistTESS ALLEN
His Wife's Diary (Love Bites) India Reinhart, a 33-year-old
successful Kansas City
graphic artist, is torn as to what is the right thing to do when she finds a
diary in a box of old books she purchases at a yard sale. Things get very dicey once she steps
deeper and deeper into the quagmire of the lives that have unfolded in
the pages of that diary. It is a quagmire that India realizes is turning out to be
almost as unsettling as the life she is already living.
To make matters worse, India finds
herself attracted to, rather than repelled by, the man she has come to despise
based on his wife’s written words. He's Langley Monza, a Kansas City favorite son and ex-NFL star. The
unwelcome attraction is a very complicated emotion for her since she still has
some unfinished business with her own ex-fiancé and feels guilt and betrayal
towards the diary writer whom she knows is dead.
India discovers there is much more than
just a broken heart hidden in the pages of Langley’s wife’s diary and it is that
discovery that she realizes may easily drastically change the course of a
number of lives, including her own.
Jewel Capri is on the fast track with her jewelry design
business and it looks like things are only going to get better when she ties
into one of the most popular women in Dallas, Soraline Baugh, a woman who seems
to have the power to make or break her career.
But Jewel has no idea what
awaits her as she finds herself caught in the middle of a cloudy world of
television and professional sports personalities. And she's not at all happy
with herself when she winds up thinking far too much about the intriguing,
Wayman Washington, an ultra sexy, sensitive man who just won’t leave her alone.
When Jewel discovers who
Wayman really is all she wants is out. But does she?

Hawkins, the daughter of a third generation pastor, who is a staunch

Holding It Together With Band-Aids and Safety Pins
An engaging poetic look at the social, emotional, economic, and
political struggles of the early twenty-first century that impact the
lives of both young and old. It finds people where they are, who they
are, and what they are doing to try to cope and understand their
changing world. It whispers of the mysteries of complex relationships to
the anguish of facing incomprehensible grief. It speaks of you and it
speaks of me. Holding it Together with Band-Aids and Safety Pins is
the second poetic offering of poet/playwright Peggy Eldridge-Love and
dovetails nicely with her first award-winning collection, You Beckon. Peggy is also the artist of the cover watercolor entitled Uprising.
