Book Description
I decided to publish this book because this election cycle was nothing any of us had ever witnessed before. It was a circuspure madness. So I made notes. I was in constant shock, saying to my poor husband, Roy, Can you believe this? After a while, I knew he was tuning me out. LOL. I am what many people would describe as a political junkie. I pay attention. I follow the campaigns. I was a beast. I listened and watched as they tricked the uninformed and convinced them to vote against their own interest. This time, it was the absolute worst. The lies were coming fast and furious. We were inundated and totally on overdrive. The media got caught up in the lies, and it was obvious they wanted to create confusion and chaos, especially when it came to Hillary. I would say they were complicit in the worst election we have ever seen. Everyone thought Hillary would win. The entire political world, including the press, had given the election to Hillary. She couldnt lose, they said. She needed to win just one of the toss-up states, and she would be madam president. We were so excited, but Comey had other ideas. He found some damn e-mails from Anthony Weiner, and all hell broke loose. The media was orgasmic. They wanted a real race. Elections have become all about making millions of dollars, and Hillarys e-mails generated a lot of interest, especially if Anthony Carlos Danger Weiner was involved. The media spent nine days with around the clock reporting on these e-mails, while Trump was getting billions of dollars worth of free airtime to spread untruths. Fox News found the smoking gun, they thought, and Hillary was once again attacked for being unscrupulous and unworthy of the office. Something was fishy with Comey. Why would he release the letter to say he found more e-mail and not give any further details? Poor Hillary. Two days before the election, Comey sent another letter, this time, saying Never mind. People were angry at Hillary for having the server. Some decided to stay home, and others decided to vote for someone else. Trump won the presidency because of a few different factors. Comeys letters just before the election played quite a significant role, and now, since Trumps win, we learned about Russias involvement. Poor Hillary never had a chance. It was over. The men took her down, and women stabbed her in her back and never helped her! Ugh!

Pages : 215
Book Description
The heart wants what it wants…convenient or not. Instead of winning a prestigious cooking competition, Sundia Sharma won infamy by breaking her tailbone on television. Thinking her culinary dreams are over, she prepares to head back to her corporate accounting job. That is, until a world-famous celebrity chef, impressed by her innovative recipes, offers her an internship at his new restaurant. It’s Sundia’s last shot to prove to herself—and her family—that she has what it takes. If only her crush wasn’t the chef’s personal assistant…and her new roommate. With a love ‘em and leave ‘em reputation, Avery Daniels is practically famous—perhaps infamous—as far as West Coast lesbians go. As the right-hand woman to a celebrity chef, Avery barely has time to breathe, let alone do dinner or dates. She prides herself on staying cool in all situations, but something about Sundia gets under her skin—and in the stone-cold heart she denies having. Sundia can’t afford any more mishaps—or temptations—and firmly friend zones Avery. But staying apart gets more challenging as both their walls slowly crumble in and out of the kitchen.
