When your dream means changing someone else's life, what lengths would you go to to make it come true? After Elizabeth witnesses domestic violence, her father is suddenly killed in a car crash. Elizabeth is inserted into a new life: a new father and brother, and most unusual; a completely new name. Grampa Terrence is a father figure since Grant's parent's divorce. Terrence is grooming Grant to be the next mayor of Louisville and will stop at nothing to see him appointed; no matter whose life is ruined. As Grant patronizes Elizabeth's restaurant one day, all eyes are on them. Like ostriches with heads in the sand, things have been concealed: a baby, betrayal, bribery...even murder. Sex and Nudity: yes Offensive Language: yes Violence: yes
Some have said that if you see me on the street (usually with a book in hand or a laptop fired up), I appear a cold, hard-fisted person. However, once we¿ve spoken for five minutes or less, you¿ll have laughed at least once. That is, provided you appreciate sarcastic, self-deprecating wit. My first short story was penned in middle school and I was hooked ever since. I graduated with honours from Humber College and began working as an Administrative Coordinator for a large, multinational corporation shortly afterward. Quickly learning that the corporate world, despite the love I had for my job, is a slow killer of creativity, I chose to quit during maternity leave in 2006. Difficulty thinking outside the box soon evaporated when I received something that didn¿t come in one: my first child. While at home with the baby my imaginative energy got the better of me and my first memoir was written. It had been a dream of mine to write about my late father, who passed away from alcoholism in 1992, and it took me two years to compose a fifty-page manuscript, but I did it. After my second daughter was born in 2008 I had more fuel to write, and felt it necessary to voice the challenges and inherent gifts I acquired during my struggles with Scoliosis. Hence, my second memoir was born. The words flowed out of me with such ease I shocked myself. My love for words grew with each book I read and every word I wrote. I soon realized I had no more material to write non-fiction, which led me to take a stab at fiction. The next two books were such a revelation: it became more and more clear what my true calling was. The rest, as they say, is history!
