    Hi Friend,
    My new book, ISLAND BEAUTY comes out today and I would love it if you would check it out and purchase a personalized copy. I would really appreciate your support. To purchase book or check out my other books please visit www.newworldpublish.webs.com Thank you and have a blessed day!

    “ISLAND BEAUTY is the best piece Marlene have ever written. She have really matured as a writer. I think it would even make a good movie. There is great suspense and conflict. Marlene shows life and how it really is, even when we think we have good friendships, life can throw us a curve ball. I really enjoyed reading her story it was great, the tone was good and it was exciting. Keep up the good work!”

    Gidorah Matthews Author Of:
    Methuselah's Rainbow
    The Secret Exposed: What Every Christian Should Know
    The Windowsill Children Series

    Sage Churchill has always had the best of everything, a loving father that gave her everything her heart desired and good friends to kick it with, which always made life more exciting. She thought her life was perfect, until the day her father makes a deathbed confession that shatters her world as she knows it.
    When Sage finds out that her mother, whom she was led to believe died, may be alive and living in Jamaica, her world is turned upside down. She is faced with the toughest decision of her life. Does she search for a woman she’s never known or does she ignore her longing for a mother’s love?
    Sage, Nicky, Tish, and Lace have been friends since pre-school. But their relationship suffers when they bring the drama to Sage’s doorstep. Her girl, Nicky, has gotten herself involved in the drug game and has Sage’s name all caught up in the mix, bringing the authorities to her door. Tish, has a mystery lover and when that person’s identity is revealed, it may tear the girls’ thirteen year friendship apart and possible cause one of them to lose their life.
    Will Sage find her mother and live happily ever after? Will she survive the drama? Or have a nervous breakdown?

When Edmund, a charismatic and prominent attorney swept her off her feet, Tracy was ecstatic about the relationship and a chance to ride love’s train, but she didn’t realize that sometimes, all that glitters is not gold. Soon scandal and skeletons come creeping out of Edmund’s closet. As he frantically tries to stay one step ahead of the dirty little secrets that haunt his past, Tracey finds herself pondering the reality of whether she really knows the man she loves.

    Hi Book4Diva, you will forgive me for how long it has taken to approve you as a friend. I am a great fan of Eric Jerome Dickey and have all his books. I just purchased his latest one in the Gideon series a few days ago.

    Hey there BookDiva4choc,
    Just stopping by to say hi. I see that you are reading the Velvet Rope. I just read it last week. I liked it. Let me know what you think. I'm reading Daring Love by Elaine Overton. It's kind of slow but I think I'm going to like. I generally read urban and than a romance.

    I submitted an application to be a children's writer-in-residence for the library here in Boston. It's for emerging young adult novelists. I hope to redraft my childrne's novel so that it will be ready to be published. I will rewrite the novel even if I'm not selected for the fellowship and I found that deciding which 15 pages to submit as well as writing a proposal about what I'd work on over the 9 month residence was really helpful. Keep writing!

    Hello,
    You mentioned that you're having trouble finding this book - even in your local public library. Have you tried requesting it through a statewide interlibrary loan program? That's how I found it.... ;) HTH
