The story began like a dream… A child is born with all the possibilities of a bright future. Nearby, a loving family waits for the son they have always dreamed of. When they become a family, little league, playdates, birthday parties and college scholarships all seem within the grasp of this all-American family. But when the fairy tale ended… The family realizes their precious child is struggling with the most basic developmental milestones, and they vow to love him more. However, the truth of their son’s condition is something that even the strongest family could not undo. His brain has been damaged by alcohol before he was even born. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder is the leading cause of birth defects and developmental disabilities in the United States… and there is no cure. One family’s powerful story of faith began. The fight to advocate for their son in a world that did not understand left this family feeling exhausted and hopeless. The isolation of their reality almost destroyed their marriage and their family, until they found strength in a community they never knew existed. They found families that were struggling too. They stepped out of isolation and together they found faith and hope once again.

There have always been people who are different. Whether it is their sexuality, mental health, or their way of experiencing the world. Throughout history, perceptions of abnormality have changed for the better (much like fashion, though that hasn’t improved all that much so that’s probably a bad comparison – horrible fashion seems to be cyclical, much like the negative attitudes towards difference). There are still battles to be won, but on the whole, attitudes and treatment have improved. The aim of this collection is to represent the misunderstood and challenge those who hold prejudice. They are set in different decades to show improvement of treatment, however minor. In these stories, the most important message is for those who can relate to the characters and/or situations and for you to know that things have gotten better, and will continue to get better still.

Book, Born, Broken, Blessed II speaks about the life of a woman named Madison; she was born into a struggling marriage between her parents that led her into a generational curse. Madison spent her entire adult life seeking love in all the wrong places before her strongest desire was met. Madison found out through her faith that true love is a gift from God. After all, He (God) loved the world "so much" that He gave His only son. Standing on Planted Seeds comes from the heart of the author, her personal walk with the Lord, His will for her life, and testimonies of her faith. When she came to the Lord as Sinner, she was a hot mess! She confesses--her heart, mind and soul needed cultivating. She recognizes and overcomes hindrances the devil attempts to use to destroy her relationship with God. The Lord, who began a good work in me, will complete it; "no" He's not done with me yet! The Lord has given each of us power to stand. Take off the Mask describes how the people of God send mixed messages to the unsaved society. It clearly states how Gods' word does not discriminate, but it defines and addresses every possible event, mistake and recovery plan for every man, woman, boy and girl. It deals with fraudulent Christians and goes on to reveal the counterfeit Christian in their service for others and for God. It continues on to express; we struggle daily with temptation, forgiveness, drama, jealousy and courage, but we are still commanded to do what is right. God's word shows us how to cope with all the trials, and stumbling blocks of the world.
