Story
I was born and broken in Birkenhead, abused from infancy by a network of every kind of pervert from ‘thinks it’s love’ to ‘show it hurts’. I was unwanted, beaten, sold, swapped, photographed, filmed, left for dead, corrupted, blamed, betrayed, ignored and orphaned. But I was also born with a fire inside me. I call it my Phoenix Fire. I am no victim—that word only describes what happened to me. Nor am I a survivor because that implies I am over it. I am a Phoenix—a work in progress. This is my story....

Thankfully, she wasn't alone out in the woods...her brother, Charlie, was always there to guide and protect her from anything that may bring harm—however, who was going to protect her from him?

Story
A successful LA artist, Roman Velasco appears to have everything he could possibly want - money, women, fame. Only Grace Moore, his reluctant, newly hired personal assistant, knows how little he truly has. The demons of Roman's past seem to echo through the halls of his empty mansion and out across his breathtaking Topanga Canyon view. But Grace doesn't know how her boss secretly wrestles with those demons: by tagging buildings as the Bird, a notorious but unidentified graffiti artist - an alter ego that could destroy his career and land him in prison.

Publisher's summary
Not all memories are bitter.
Drowning in Memories is written in two parts: Bitter Tasting Memories, part one; After Midnight, part two, which is dedicated to my brother; plus a bonus short story, One in a Million: A True Story of Friendship.
Parts one and two continue to chart my memories and the many mistakes I made along the way. This up-and-down ride includes fun times, not-so-fun times, and sad times that came to mind during and after writing Bitter Memories.
Many secrets that Uncle Henry kept hidden over the years are revealed. While trying to mend fences with Aunt Olivia, I learned that you never can go home again - at least I never could. John, who I didn't know growing up, was an amazing big brother. With great pride I share some of our times together while we were getting to know each other.
One in a Million is a true story of friendship and love between two friends helping each other deal with spirals of emotions, good and bad. After an attempted suicide, I met David, another patient in the psych ward, who was suffering from deep depression. However, holding a heartbreaking secret, David had a good reason to be depressed.
We became instant friends, and David shared his secret with me and ultimately changed the direction in which my life was heading. Showing me life through his eyes, this young man saw beauty in everything around him. David loved life. He only wanted to be there for his friends and to help others. But no one could help David. No one could change what was to come for my dear friend.

Story
A summer job. That's all it was supposed to be. It never crossed my mind that I was about to collide with a man who would obliterate every plan I ever made. My mother has always warned me that love is like a lightning bolt and it strikes without warning. But I had no intention of getting struck by either lightning or love anytime soon. I'd be too busy finishing my journalism degree and landing a job in a city far more sophisticated than Phoenix. There was certainly nothing in the cards about getting involved with an ex-ballplayer turned nightclub boss.
