Toya is on her seventh foster home and she's only sixteen years old. Next stop: a residential treatment facility. Toya has no clue what a residential treatment facility is, but she knows she wants no parts of one. So she has to clean up her act. No more cussing, no more drinking, no more fighting and no more internet videos-the kind that got her kicked out of her last few foster homes. She's just been moved to a new foster home-possibly her last foster home-and all is well. A new home in a new town, but her old ways seem to follow her wherever she goes. Not only that, but one of her fiercest demons has just emerged from the shadows of her past and threatens to drag her down once again. In order to survive, Toya must do something she hasn't dared to do in a very long time...trust. Boy Toy is the story of one girl's journey from the lost to the loved.

A woman who is on the verge of losing her marriage. A teenage girl in trouble with the law. A former soldier having difficulty finding her way. Three woman from three different walks of life, with one thing in common: A beautiful Coach bag. From the outside looking in, Danielle appears to have it all. Rich and beautiful, with a gorgeous hunk of a husband and the perfect daughter. Inside, she knows it's all a lie. They are three strangers living inside of a stately McMansion, who barely utter a word to each other--and it's killing her. She has no idea how to heal her broken family, so she shops instead. It is her only form of therapy. So when Danielle purchases a stunning designer handbag, she sees it as just another way of medicating her pain. Never could she have imagined that one bag could set off a chain reaction of hope and healing that not only changes her life, but reaches across the aisles to two other women who are also on the brink. The Christmas Coach is a feel-good story that shows we are all connected. And through that connection we can lift each other up.

She ran away from home for love and love nearly killed her. Sasha was fifteen years old when she slipped out of the window of her grandmother's house to run away with Linc, her first love. But Linc had other plans. Sasha quickly found herself caught up in the dangerous world of sex trafficking. Eight years later, she returns home. The neighborhood has changed a lot since Sasha left. Yet with the help of an unlikely collection of friends: a seventy-year-old diva, a six-year-old genius and a young cop who is madly in love with her, she slowly starts to get her life on track. This is not an easy task because Sasha did not return alone. She carries a load of guilt, regrets and so many ghosts from her past. On top of all that, Sasha bears a deadly secret that threatens to destroy the fragile new world she has worked so hard to rebuild. GHETTO PRINCESS is a tale of one woman's journey to shed the scars of her past and dare to hope for a better future.

Two sisters. One destined for the crown, one doomed to silence. Princess Astrid and Princess Vega are identical in every way-except one was born near perfect, the other "deficient." Born mute. By age six, their fates are sealed. Vega will be the next queen. Astrid, the silent princess, will spend the rest of her days rotting away in a facility. It is a time when the planet has been ravaged by global warming. Famine and disease demand drastic measures to preserve resources that are already stretched paper thin. The only thing standing between Astrid and the facility, a mother's love. One day, Astrid wakes with no memory. No awareness of her royal blood. No recollection of the harrowing journey she just survived that brought her to safety and her new home: The Isle of the Never Mind. Very few know of its secret. In the heart of the island, a healing spring. Waters that, if consumed, have the ability to heal any ailment. But for the deficient, it gives them supernatural abilities. On the Never Mind, Astrid develops new gifts, a new family, a new home. She is content to live out her days as a blissfully a happy teenager on this little slice of paradise. But when a wayward plane falls from the sky carrying a handsome pilot, Astrid finds herself in danger of losing it all: her home and her heart. The Never Mind is the first book in the Never Mind Trilogy.
