This is a story of a middle child's journey in search of her own identity and happiness. Even at such a young age, Ivvi loved adventures and she knew that if she could keep up with her older brother she would be heading into one. The streetlights were on, but there was a much brighter light shining down on them as they made their way to their hills. It was their world, their time.

She said her husband was at work. He wasn't. Kyle enjoys working outdoors as the owner of a small landscaping business. Most of his customers stay inside while Kyle and his crew take care of their yards. But not Tracy Dawson, the rich housewife who lives on the hill. Tracy spends summer afternoons beside the pool, watching Kyle from behind her dark sunglasses. Her flirtatious banter and low-cut bathing suits fuel Kyle's fantasies. Tracy invites him into the guest house for a little afternoon delight. But when Tracy admits her husband was watching, Kyle gets ready for a beat-down. Instead, Mr. Dawson makes Kyle an offer he can't refuse... Kyle begins a relationship with Tracy and Eric that takes him places he never imagined. The chemistry between the threesome intensifies over time, and Kyle joins them on vacations. But when Tracy bursts into tears and Eric shares his doubts about the relationship, Kyle is thrown into a tailspin. Can they resolve their differences and stay together forever?

With a foreword by Joycelyn Elders, M.D., No Secrets, No Lies is a powerful and daringly honest resource guide for families seeking to understand, prevent, and overcome childhood sexual abuse and its devastating impact on adult survivors.An estimated one in four women and one in six men is abused by age eighteen, most often by someone they know. Most of these sexual assaults are never disclosed, much less reported to the police. No Secrets, No Lies demystifies the cultural taboos and social dynamics that keep Black families silent and enable abuse to continue for generations. Among them:• Fear of betraying family by turning offenders in to "the system"• Distrust of institutions and authority figures, such as police officers• Reluctance to seek counseling or therapy• A legacy of enslavement and stereotypes about black sexualityThrough compelling personal accounts from everyday people, Robin D. Stone, a sexual abuse survivor herself, illuminates the emotional, psychological and hidden consequences of remaining silent, and provides holistic, practical steps to move toward healing. No Secrets, No Lies candidly speaks to: survivors, telling them they are not at fault, not alone and how they can seek help; parents, guardians and caretakers, explaining how they can keep children safe and help survivors recover; and family, friends and other loved ones, showing ways to lend support.

I understand that some may call me controversial for writing this thesis. In fact, a good friend of mine refuses to look at it for fear of going against the thoughts of his denomination on the subject. The controversial part is a phrase. It states that God's science and man's science are not the same.In ancient times, the phrase was true. We had no science. But we have learned more over the centuries. Will we ever grow into God's science? I don't know. I'm not trying to convince you of anything. The thesis is written in a way that allows all to form their own opinions. As far as I can see, anything less is blindness.The scientists that made me ask, "If not God's science, then whose?" are stilling us about the boundaries of our universe. I thank them deeply for their contributions. They are the Bible, Josh Wilferd, Nova, Albert Einstein, Neal DeGrasse Tyson, esteemed astrophysicists, World Book, Inc., the Green Kingdom Volume 6, Prentiss Hall Elementary science textbook, the crew of the Hubble Telescope, and NASA. They want to tell us what they know.I have thoroughly enjoyed working on this project. I hope as much that you enjoy reading it.
