Shades of Love: Poetry of Life and Love Lost and Found By: Haviv Elana Trocki-Videll While others may write their thoughts in a diary, after a great date or horrific fight with friends and loved ones, Haviv Elana Trocki-Videll has written and continues to write poems inspired by her experiences. Shades of Love... is a book of 18 of these poems, inspired by the ups and downs of her personal experiences in life and love. She chose 18 of her poems for this book because the number 18 signifies life and also because she wanted to remind readers that in life we experience many shades of love (romantic, be it unrequited or reciprocal, platonic, unconditional, personal, even hatred is a shade of love and not its opposite, as it stems from feeling, caring). Each of these is an equally important experience. That as such, even if you think you have never found love, we have all experienced even romantic love in life. Love, like life, is a journey, not a destination. So one should face all shades of love and life with courage, bravery, and optimism, for love is never really lost.

Category : Fiction

Pages : 271
Book Description
She left for the military thinking she would have it all. The career, the man she loved, a family of her own. Then her fiancé issued an ultimatum: come home and marry him, or lose him forever. Eight years later, Lieutenant Lynn Johnston returns to her small Kentucky hometown with a secret to keep and a desire to find peace. Her planned lifelong career had been cut short by events beyond her control. Now, she hoped that she could forge a new path, one that would heal her heart and help to put her past behind her. Those hopes are dashed when she discovers Carter Mathis, her former fiancé, has also returned and is raising his two young sons. Lynn must decide if she can deal with not only the old hurt feelings from the past -- and Carter's soon-to-be ex who has a vendetta against Lynn-- to give Carter a second chance. A deadly collapse at the coal mines where Carter works, an accident that rocks the town, could possibly take the choice out of her hands. Does she confront her feelings and move forward, or leave the life she's always wanted behind?

Pages : 276
Book Description
Shades of Silence depicts the resilience of a woman faced with devastating loss, the unexpected friendship forged from tragedy and the recurring societal themes that confront every generation. The book tells the story of Julianna Sandoval who is living in limbo. Her husband's plane has vanished over the Atlantic Ocean and although the Coast Guard has suspended the search, she clings to hope that he'll still be found alive. Three months later, a young woman appears after hours at Julianna's Ormond Beach restaurant, declaring, "He's not who you think he is." Before the stranger can say anything else, a gunshot through the window kills her instantly. Seasoned detective Paul Grant is assigned to investigate the girl's murder. He senses that the shooting was not random but doesn't know the connection to his only witness.

The investigation leaves Julianna wondering who she can trust and culminates with an eerie link to the past that no one sees coming.
