As young, single, and ambitious professionals, their friendship occasionally deteriorates into a vicious cycle of jealousy, gossip, selfishness, and backstabbing. Outside the walls of Montaqua Publications, Avonté, Ina, and Nakia also endure the disappointments and failed expectations of personal relationships that, even when seemingly on the brink of success, prove to be struggles. In this fast-paced story about friends and coworkers, V. Anthony Rivers deftly conveys the ugly realities of personal and professional relationships. Demonstrating a deep understanding of people—their ulterior motives, the emotional baggage they inevitably carry, and of course their issues—Rivers crafts a novel that is as easy to identify with as it is entertaining.

Christian Erickson is the perfect man: sincere, handsome, intelligent, and passionate. Maiya Hightower has searched for a man like him throughout her entire life. Unfortunately, when she finally finds Christian he is already taken. Maiya reluctantly settles for a close friendship with Christian and the two of them become inseparable. In the midst of turmoil in her personal life, Maiya gives birth to a beautiful daughter, Angelina, but fears that Angelina will make the same mistakes in her life that she did. Thus, she leads Angelina to believe that a man she has never shared one single act of intimacy with is her biological father. She wants Angelina to grow up with high expectations so she places Christian, who is no longer a part of her life, onto a well-deserved pedestal and convinces Angelina that he is the role model that any young man that comes into her life must follow. Angelina becomes immersed in Christian's world through his words: books, magazine articles, and personal letters written to her mother. Even though she has never met him, she is his daughter by spirit. Maiya continues this farce for sixteen years with the help of her best friend and mother who oppose the situation, but both have been drawn into the lies to the point where they can't get out of them. But like all things in life, whatever you do in the dark eventually comes into the light, and Maiya is faced with the consequences of her actions. The only question is, will her relationship with her daughter survive. An emotional rollercoaster, Daughter by Spirit will likely move you to tears.
Download or read book Delusions of Clarity written by Vern Bryk and published by Mando Forte Books. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 849 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karl Jommers is a straight-shooting therapist committed to helping blue-collar men overcome their reluctance to seek counseling, a mission instilled in him after the suicide of his steelworker father. After a cop is set up to be shot, Jommers must evaluate the two police officers involved. They both offer conflicting accounts, but neither is lying. Their divergent perspectives are blurred by their personal anxieties and politics. Where one sees acts of local corruption, the other envisions a government conspiracy that includes covert dispersion of anxiogenic chemicals. Jommers methodically tries to disentangle the discordance, but is faced with a quandary. He can’t square his patients’ differing views without first discerning the truth of what happened. But stepping outside his domain to investigate may jeopardize his faltering practice and possibly his life. As he labors to clear the angst-fogged lenses of others, he is forced to question the clarity of his own perception.

Download or read book The Invisible Ache written by Courtney B. Vance and published by Balance. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From an award-winning actor and a #1 bestselling author, a unique combination of moving memoir and practical tools that offers guidance for Black men seeking to reclaim their mental well-being–and, ultimately, to live wholeheartedly. In America, we teach that strength means holding back tears and shaming your own feelings. In the Black community, these pressures are especially poignant. Poor mental health outcomes-- including diagnoses of depression and anxiety, reliance on prescription drugs, and suicide–have skyrocketed in the past decade. In this book, actor Courtney B. Vance seeks to change this trajectory. Along with professional expertise from famed psychologist Dr. Robin L. Smith (popularly known as “Dr. Robin”), Courtney B. Vance explores issues of grief, relationships, identity, and race through the telling of his own most formative experiences. Together, they provide a guide for Black men navigating life’s ups and downs, reclaiming mental well-being, and examining broken pieces to find whole, full-hearted living. Self-care is an act of revolution. It’s time to revolutionize mental health in the Black community. "A thoughtful, wise, empathetic book that has the capacity to save lives. " (Kirkus) "...an inspiring story of what [Black men] can achieve personally and professionally when they have the tools and support necessary to examine their pain and find their joy." (New York Journal of Books)

Book excerpt: Since she was a teenager, Mary Grantham has held herself solely responsible for the deaths of her parents and, for fifteen years, has lived with the guilt, becoming a dispirited idealist who can hold on to a job no better than she can hold on to a man. Following the death of her grandmother, whose singular remaining desire was to get her granddaughter married, Mary meets Jonathan Shepherd. For years, Jonathan has carried guilt of his own in the form of a seven-year-old daughter born with mental and physical disabilities. He has been unable to shake the belief that she was sent in punishment from God for the years that he and his now ex-wife abused drugs and alcohol. But Jonathan is haunted by a secret more terrible than God's wrath that threatens not only his burgeoning relationship with Mary but also his newfound sobriety and his very sanity. As their demons tear them apart, they find solace in each other, but the past will not loosen its hold on them. Will they find happiness with each other, or will the past exact its revenge? Can Mary find forgiveness for herself? Can Jonathan forgive himself, his ex-wife, or the daughter in the presence of whom he feels God's unrelenting retribution? And in the end, can either of them find any form of redemption?

Book excerpt: The backstory of finding Elizabeth Smart and how growing up in the Mormon culture pushed the author to develop the exact kind of intuition that was needed to help manage Elizabeth’s kidnapping and rescue while the world watched. Chris Thomas is not yet thirty years old when he finds himself managing the immense pressure, eccentric personalities, and extenuating circumstances of an international story, where one small misstep could adversely impact the search for a missing teenager and the reputation of her family. Now, twenty years later, Thomas takes readers behind the scenes, providing new details, perspectives, and commentary on finding Elizabeth Smart. In the process of reflecting on Elizabeth’s search and rescue, Thomas discovers how growing up in the culture of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly known as Mormon) helped push him to develop the exact kind of intuition needed to manage Elizabeth’s kidnapping and rescue, and to do so while the world watched. Unexpected juxtaposes crucial events from the Smart case with Thomas’s experience growing up in the Latter-day Saint culture, including coming to understand the secret of a broken war hero before it was too late.
Download or read book The Wisdom Pot written by Emmanuel N. Mukanga and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘The Wisdom Pot’ was inspired by posts on a seniors’ platform that were meant to help members, their families and friends prepare and navigate through different stages in life. While compiling tributes to a fallen colleague, the author soon realized that the platform had so many informative, educative and entertaining words of wisdom for different ages. He collected those he felt could be shared with the wider society because of their relevance and usefulness. As the world wrestled with the COVID 19 pandemic, tips on protective measures such as sanitizing, washing hands and wearing masks featured regularly on the platform. So were tips on general health, especially for the elder citizens. The elders got to learn that proper networking, like checking on each other daily, can be lifesaving. The elders exchanged notes on the mid-career, getting married, bringing up children and finding real happiness. What many are ignorant about are the changes that come about in our families, jobs and ages. Did you know that many married women, when they reach 40-50 years and have children, become rebellious to their husbands?
