She is consumed by an unexplainable, unidentifiable emptiness from wanting to have a mom and dad like her friends and longing to be under the same roof as her brothers. All of Jasmins friends had moms to shop with and dads who were their heroes and biggest fans. What made her different? Why did God single her out? Maybe her psychologist was right and she needed to read the diaries her brothers kept, locking away family secrets. All she had to do was unlock the diaries, and read. Could acquainting herself with the past be a good thing? Would she find herself? Her psychologist thought she should read the diaries in his presence and that she was a fragile egg about to crack. She was not. She knew her own strength. She could do this, and she could do it alone. She was not a little girl anymore. When no one was looking, she turned into a bright, strong, mature, independent woman. She wonders if the void in her heart would be the same if her parents had lived. Is the death of her parents the only missing link? One person can help her. Can she trust him? Will she forego the bitterness she clings to, or will she protect herself behind her thick, secure, Jericho walls?

Download or read book A Full Cup written by Klare Sullivan and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-09 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 60's, my small world seemingly began to disintegrate. Customs and traditions of family life and other aspects of human existence were drastically changing. Our children no longer had the security and optimism that the older generation had known. By the 80's, my contemporaries knew that we would never recapture the magical moments with which we grew up. However, storytelling in the Deep South was alive and well, and acquaintances encouraged me to write down some of the many experiences of daily living that I talked about. That encouragement led to a weekly column in several newspapers, and I called it "From over the Hill." Recently, friends and followers of my articles advised me to put together a book of some favorites written during that time. Most of the stories are very similar to today's happenings-we are still in the 80's mode. Perhaps we can live a little, love a lot, and laugh together as we momentarily forget 9/11 and go back into time.

Sieders, author of Red Shoes for Lab Blues “I will read this one again. The sex scenes were off the charts hot. The characters were amazing. Henry melted me.” – Jessi Gage, author of Wishing for a Highlander “Chapter after chapter, I was captivated by the very real process of a woman that discovers her submissive self and how a man tamed her, day after day, week after week, month after month. … It is the kind of book that make you think: yeah, that makes sense. If I was in her shoes, I would act like this.” – Mary, reviewer for Mary’s Menage Whispers  “The writer had a way to bring you in and make you feel soulful about what they were sharing. I felt like I was made to consider each decision they made about what they needed and why they needed it. This wasn’t just a wham-bam book, it was a story of Alice’s emotions surrounding this couple she had grown to care for.” — Mistress L, reviewer for S&M’s Book Obsessions
