My Interests

( )Savor the SweetnessThere is an old adage; “Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.” But what happens when your closest friend becomes your greatest enemy?Celeste Gray and Terri Hunter are best friends who seemingly have everything – lavish homes, luxury cars, designer labels, beautiful children and doting husbands.Though they are spoiled rotten by the sweet life, what they posses is not what they desire.When a tragic hit-n-run accident kills Celeste’s husband, Jayland, both their lives are left in ruins. In the aftermath of the crash, guilt forces the duo on a downward spiral of events. Terri searches for a deeper connection on the Internet, while Celeste solicits sexual favors from Rowan, Terri’s barely legal son.Grief has never turned so bitter as secrets are discovered and deception is unearthed in the lives of the women and the “sacred” orchard that connects them.AVAILABLE NOW ON AMAZON.COM, B&N.COM & OUTSKIRTSPRESS/MARCHEL ALVERSON!
