Book excerpt

All seems lost for Anna Desiree Kane, a thirty year old African American woman who is plagued by bad luck after the sudden death of her husband. She becomes homeless and terminally ill, leaving her incapable of adequately taking care of her children. Therefore, she loses them to the system and later hits rock bottom a few weeks before Christmas. Her life is going nowhere until a twist of fate leads her to a local shelter worker and pastor, Jacob Day, a Caucasian handsome man who is well liked in his community, but jeopardizes his integrity when he goes against all odds to help rebuild her life by showing tough love. Desiree has serious trust issues and grows an instant disliking to him, assuming he wants something from her, or is a hypocrite like the rest of the world. He’s persistent and unwavering, determined to make a difference in her life. He sees something deeply within her that the scars of life is hiding. He fights to gain her trust: even if it pushes them further apart. He’s not allowing their troubles of today to dictate their happiness for tomorrow. While on his pursuit to tear down all the strongholds, he falls in love. It’s now clear to him why God allowed Desiree to enter into his life. Broken and dismayed, Desiree is on a verge of a mental breakdown and then tragedy strikes, forces Jacob to make an ultimate decision that may cost him everything that he has sacrificed to keep. Is it worth it? His affection is all over the place like scattered paper. He’s a ticking time bomb ready to explode. But love conquers all, and God is opening a new roadway towards redemption. They must act fast, hoping that God will grant them the joy that their hearts so desire.

I kept going to baby groups and therapy sessions, but I wasn’t really there. It was just a fog of me. Nothing helped or changed anything until one day my therapist got an idea. She asked, “If I record a meditation for you, would you listen to it while you nurse?” “Sure, whatever,” I said. I had never meditated before.
