    Life Is Never Perfect, Even For These Four Women
    New Novel tells the dramatic stories of four young ladies seeking happiness and satisfaction in an imperfect world

    Never Say Never follows the enduring journeys of four extraordinary women; from early adolescence into early adulthood. Through the pages of this work, readers will meet an unforgettable quartet ~ Amanda, a successful doctor, LaNae an entrepreneur, Monique, a hairstylist, and Celeste, an educator ~ and through each of their stories, they will witness the obstacles that comes with careers, their own search for meaning and happiness, and ultimately discover their relationships that evolve around family, friendship and love. Through friendship, these women grow and evolve, both individually and collectively.

    Reviewer ~ Sidne Kingston
    DivineSisterz of Chicago Christian Book Club

    Never Say Never... characters are faced with life’s disappointments, growing pains, heartfelt moments, true friendship, revenge, complex confusion, blessings and love that abides. Each character will have to make a decision that will shape their future for the rest of their lives.
    The author provides a two-way mirror, one side, the characters and the other side, Maybe You.
    A revelation packed storyline sure to hold your attention.
    On a scale of 1-4, my rating of Never Say Never….. is a 4

    Reviewer ~ Rasheemah
    Real Divas of Literature "#1 Book Club

    I recommend this book because it is not only about friendship. It shows that if you have faith and trust in God, you can accomplish anything. Ms Thomas did an excellent job with this novel. This is not your average urban book but you will not be able to put it down. Will these ladies be able to find love and happiness? Will there past be there demise?
    I give this book 5 Stars

    Hi Victoria,

    I'm glad you enjoyed Make it Hot. Aunt Sophie does have her funny moments, huh. Well, I guess she's funny if you don't have to deal with her. LOL. You'd have to laugh to keep from popping her upside her head. I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. All is well here... :-)

    I'm not sure that I can help you much. I understand that you are researching for a work of fiction about fertility, but I think I already shared everything I was comfortable sharing.

    Hi Vicki yes the group seems to be long overdue on Shelfari and I am happy you like it. Your question regarding infertility you may like to ask questions and discuss this where you see the discussion about adoption. I think lilbear mentioned her reason for adoption is due to infertility or you can start a new discussion on infertility. Anyone is welcome to post, thankyou for taking part vicki.Deltasky
