    What can you say about a book that has answered so many questions that you couldn't for most of your adult years? Is the word "Phenomenal" or could this book just be my inspiration?
    "She Touched My Soul" did exactly that in many different ways, the cover has so many different hues of blue it totally sets the spiritual mood. In the sky you see two beings with the glow of love surrounding them. Below is the currents of the ocean: wild, strong and unpredictably flowing.

    The title grabbed me because I remember needing my "Soul Touched." The characters in this book are so real, the situations are believable.

    Maya is an attorney at law and in the courtroom all eyes are on her, but outside of it she makes herself invisible. Her back is always against the wall, and she will always be close to an exit. Finding out the why's and what's that make Maya afraid of human touch is so frightening you wonder how she survived it, until....Mykal Arrington, an R&B singer.

    Maya feels a spiritual connection between the two of them that she doesn't understand, but decides to listen to it.

    Mykal pursues Maya, a women unlike those from his past. Mykal's family and his music have always been a part of him. Of lately, Mykal struggles with whether or not he has "lost his soul."

    They begin a friendship over dinner and just some time away to talk. During their time together Mykal notices that Maya doesn't like being touched, he wonders why. In the midst of wondering about Maya, he realizes he misses being touched and loved.

    Maya who hasn't had either of the two in 15 years has no desire to experience it now. What explodes from Mykal's invitation of dinner and conversing will have you crying, laughing and examining your own relationships and how healthy they are for you and your partner.

    As I write this review tears form in my eyes. I will never forget the characters in this book or the author who brought them to us. The whole time reading this book, I wanted to drop to my knees and give my praises to Naleighna for creating it.

    Thank you sis...and yes your work is done!
