Book Description
Delve into the melodramatic lives of three close-knit families, caught in a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal in book 1 of the My House Series. It's always been just me and my two younger siblings... well, and our best friends... and our mom, before she was taken from us. As for our sperm donor, he can rot in prison for the rest of his miserable life for all I care. Anyway, did I mention I'm also married? Yeah well, I'm married, and we've also been separated for over a year now. Times got hard, I was stressed and well I... I don't really wanna get into that right now. I just wanna live a drama free life with my family and friends, but I guess that's asking for too much... FML. Mike Harmon, successful business owner, eldest of two younger siblings, Marlon and MyIesha, and currently in a failing marriage with his, now, separated wife, Jakyra... is complicated to say the least. After a year, Jakyra returns, but not without conflict... conflict that could have been avoided if Mike hadn't lied in the first place. Now, with Jakyra back in his life, past mistakes resurface, regret settles deep, and guilt constantly plagues him, but so is the lingering deep seated love he still has for her. Even though Mike hopes for a second chance, the first domino, that he so carelessly began, has fallen, and the effects of his actions has caused a downward spiral that he has no idea how to stop. Throw in kidnapping, lies, infidelity, fighting, and secrets, and you have a recipe for disaster. Mike's found himself in the middle of a shitstorm of drama that he was most definitely trying to avoid. "I don't want to come between you and your brother, if that's what you think? I just want to be a part of the family again. I ask that you forgive me, and please don't be upset with Mike." MyIesha pointed in Jakyra's face and rudely stated, "Oh, believe me bitch, you couldn't take my place if you tried. And you will never, EVER be a part of this family again, do you hear me? NEVER! And you can take that apology and shove it up your ass!" Mike stopped her before she went any further. He'd become infuriated as he slapped her hand out of Jakyra's face. Getting in between Jakyra and his fuming sister, he bellowed. "Stop MyIesha! That's enough!"

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
A young girl describes what it’s like when her mom’s new friend comes to stay — a moving story about domestic violence that ends on a hopeful note. The young girl tells us that her mom’s new friend is just like the big bad wolf. At first the wolf is sweet and kind to her mom, though the girl notices the wolf’s cold eyes from the very beginning. When her mom arrives home late one day, the wolf suddenly hurls angry words and terrible names at her. From that day on her mother doesn’t smile anymore. The girl is careful to clean her room and brush her teeth and do everything to keep the peace, but the wolf is unpredictable, throwing plates on the floor, yelling at her mother and holding the girl’s arm so tightly she is left with bruises. Whenever the yelling begins, she hides under the covers in her room. How will she and her mom cope as the wolf becomes increasingly fierce? Valérie Fontaine and Nathalie Dion have created a powerful, moving story about violence in the home that ends on a note of hope. Correlates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.3 Describe how characters in a story respond to major events and challenges. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.9 Compare and contrast two or more versions of the same story (e.g., Cinderella stories) by different authors or from different cultures. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.2 Recount stories, including fables, folktales, and myths from diverse cultures; determine the central message, lesson, or moral and explain how it is conveyed through key details in the text.
