Review

"The only emotion that I absolutely did not feel after reading this book was regret." - Q. Shelton "...filled with 3 page turning short stories that keep you wanting to read just one more page and before you know it you've reached the end. The characters are well developed and it is easy to become emotionally invested in the main character of each story." - Anika Lynn "Buckle your seatbelt as the author takes you on a journey into and out of the lives of each and every person who reads....it's fiction by classification but digs into REAL LIFE situations that leave you clinging to every word, yet anticipating the next...I Found myself STUCK from cover to cover." "The author makes you see yourself in the characters. This was written so well that it is easily relatable and definitely a page-turner!" - D. Banks "Just when you think you know how the story will end there is a twist." - J. Anderson "This was a gripping, engaging read. I shed tears..." - N. Moses
