THE SCARLET THREAD



Hi Folks,

I realize this is my first post this year and so I'd like to say Happy New Year to everyone.!  I hope 2018 is off to a great start for you. I'm sure we all have exciting goals that we plan on accomplishing this year. Whatever they are; Big or Small, I hope you'll pursue them with the tenacity of a bulldog so that they don't remain mere dreams.

One fun fact about me - I happen to be a die hard romantic. Sorry, can't help it. I'm just wired that way. Lol. I belong to the generation that grew up reading Mills and Boons but that's a story for another day. 

Scarlet Thread had me feeling all types of way - angry, resentful... I felt like punching someone when I read The Scarlet Thread the very first time. I think I read it a couple of times after that. The story was that good in my opinion. Like how do people have gold in their hands and end up pursuing garbage?

Sierra Madrid married her childhood sweetheart - Alejandro Luis Madrid (Alex Madrid). They had both come from humble backgrounds. They had two beautiful children - Clanton and Carolyn. Sierra had been crazy in love with Alejandro Madrid. Then, Alex struck gold or so it seemed and the bricks came tumbling down.

A lot of people who are in love go into marriage wearing rose colored glasses. They say love is blind but marriage is an eye opener. I don't intend to be a Debbie Downer so I'll let you soak yourself in this book and enjoy turning every page.

I'm happily counting down to the release of The Masterpiece by the same author on February 6th. You can order it on Amazon.com or look for it in your local book store.

Cheerio.........

A little Update From Me

Hello there!! Happy New Year!!!  I say Happy New Year because I've been away from this blog for so long. :-(  I can't get past the fact that it was the new year just a few months ago. I remember going to church for the crossover service into the new year. It was my first in-person crossover service in 7 years. If you don't know what a crossover service is, ask any Nigerian. :-) 2023 was a few hours away, and my mind ran over the events in 2022. I thought about my wins, like moving to a new state, settling in, getting a job promotion, etc. I thought about how I got sick and felt like life was leaving me to being well again. People went forward to share their testimonies, and I felt I was supposed to be out there proclaiming God's goodness to me. "I'm sorry, Lord," I muttered. "Thank you for everything." A few hours later, everyone said "Happy New Year" with glee and excitement. "2023... Please be good to me." I th...

BIBI - CHAPTER 17

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange was happening to you Several months later….. **** Pere removed his glasses and rubbed his aching eyes. He thought about Nneoma. It had been months since he had seen her. He had reached out to her and tried to see her, but she had refused to pick up his calls. Eventually, she blocked his number, and he saw red. He had had enough. Today, he decided to go to her office to see her. A thousand thoughts crossed his mind. What if she wasn’t at the office? What if she had traveled? “Kade, I’ll see you tomorrow.” He said to their office assistant and headed out. “I’m here to see Ms. Nneoma Odili.” He said to the receptionist. “Is she expecting you?” “No.” He replied curtly. “What is your name?” The lady asked. “Pere is my name.” He answered. “She’s not at her desk.” The receptionist said to him after calling Nneoma's secretary. “Wow! But do you know if she’s in the office today?” ...

BIBI - CHAPTER 16

  I t was a rainy Monday morning, and Lara was frustrated by all the traffic. That was one thing she missed about London. Fast and reliable transportation that got you where you were going without hassles. She was cranky by the time she arrived at the office that morning. It didn’t also help that she didn’t have a good night’s sleep. She placed her bag under her desk and sighed. Kofo, her admin assistant, walked up to her. “Good morning, madam. Your first meeting with the people from Duchess Group is in forty minutes.” Lara squinted and then nodded. She hadn’t yet turned on her computer. “Thanks, Kofo. Yes, I know.” “Can I get you anything?” “Yes, please. My regular morning fix.” Lara smiled. “Okay, I’ll be right back,” Kofo replied. She liked her new assistant a lot. In the short time since she had known her, Kofo had proven to be reliable. She honestly didn’t know what she would do without her these days. After getting her morning fix, a cup of coffee, and egg sandwic...
