Book excerpt: Meet Skyy, a fantastic new superhero—and sensitive assassin—who defends the helpless and brings justice to those who cannot fight for themselves. Sandora "Sandy" Knight is an enigma even to those who know her. Running a Fortune 500 company by day, she sheds her hip-hop cosmopolitan identity by night to become the Lady in Black, also called Skyy, a sexy and smart vigilante who protects the innocent from child molesters, rapists, serial killers, and other low-life scum. After her own traumatizing childhood, Skyy is determined to save children from harm by any means necessary. Black Skyy weaves an intricate tale of heroism, lethal beauty, and intoxicating eroticism. Skyy believes she is called by God to use her abilities to save others from the brutality of life—even if her methods are questionable at times. Set in both New York and Washington, DC, Black Skyy follows Skyy's adventures in all their sensational and sensual thrills as she employs her uncanny intellect to capture and punish evildoers. Battling not only the bad guys, but also her inner conflicts, Skyy must fight to find her place and purpose in life, as both a woman and a symbol of justice.

In this order… the first goal is to open her own daycare center; the second goal is to have a safe house for homeless and abused children; and last, but not least, the most challenging of them all, is to convince her best friend and lover to forget about the past and look forward to their future together after she intended to propose to him. Three years later, Skyy has been working her butt off making her dreams a reality. One morning, she gets up out of bed with a smile on her face, the first in a very long time. Skyy goes into her newly remolded bathroom to take a shower. Rushing out of her house and running to the driveway, where her blue Jeep is parked, Skyy unlocks the car to get in. After pulling out, Skyy remembers that she received a text message last night. While reading the message, Skyy begins to hyperventilate and what she reads almost causes her to have a car accident with the car directly in front of her. When she finally arrives at work that morning, her hands are shaking so badly that she can barely turn the darn Jeep off. However, before exiting the Jeep, Skyy contemplates returning the text message or placing a phone call.

Download or read book Preacher or Ecclesiastical Pimp written by Dr. Louis Timm's and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-03-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are a minister, have a minister, know a minister or know someone else that has or knows a minister, this book is an absolute must read. Money and sex are two of the biggest culprits of our time and being in the church is no guarantee to immunity. The real names have been changed to protect the guilty and should the likeness of any character in this book appear to resemble any individual, it is purely intentional. True to form, I have deliberately resorted to the act of embellishment on certain factual like accounts in this book, purely for effect of it all. Dr. Timm's has written this book to let the children of God everywhere know that you are not alone and that the goings on at your local church is not an isolated incidence. Every church needs to have a Pastor/Minister, but know this, God has an all Seeing Eye and He has not forgotten about your plight. I dare you to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, let Him fix it, wait on God, He will show up and He will definitely show out. Not only will we have to pay for our wrongdoings, but they that have pleasure in them will have a price to pay as well; "Thus saith the Lord" From the same author that brought us; "Little Miss Sanctified" and "Church-Folk Some Messed-Up-Folk"
