Pages : 178
Book Description
As her weak and battered body lay paralyzed on the mattress in her master bedroom, Michelle's boyfriend's blood dripped from the lacerations on his hands onto her bruised and mangled face. Using what little energy she had left, she broke free from his grasp and fell to her knees, begging God to forgive Paul for what he was doing and to make him stop. Paul simply laughed and replied, "God isn't going to help you now." In that instant, Michelle saw her life flash before her eyes and wondered how she got there...again. But I Love Him is a painful yet inspirational true story of a strong, independent woman caught in the horrifying cycle of domestic violence and how she got out. In this book, Michelle shares the details of her struggle with genuine honesty, taking the reader on a twisted journey of love, pain and unyielding brutality that eventually leads...to peace. Mixing statistics, research and resource with her own account, she shows just how far someone in her situation can sink, why it happens and how they can always pick themselves back up. Those who hear Michelle's story will walk away with a newfound understanding about the horrors of domestic violence, how to escape and how to build a new, healthier life. Michelle Jewsbury is an international philanthropic, speaker and author that has traveled the world as an advocate for the less fortunate. May 2014, she took her first humanitarian trip to Guatemala where she helped an orphanage on the Rio Dulce. Her next mission trip took her to Kenya, Africa with Kizimani, a non profit that focuses on bringing hope and sustainable change to impoverished communities. In 2015, she embarked in a career as Vice President for Young Vision Africa, a non-profit organization that encourages young leaders in Sierra Leone to make lasting changes in their country. Also in 2015, Michelle joined a team of people in Hyderabad, India where she worked with Back2Back at one of their orphanages. Michelle left her position with Young Vision Africa in August 2016 to focus her efforts on ending domestic violence. In July 2017, Michelle founded Unsilenced Voices, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization focused on inspiring change in communities around the globe by encouraging victims to break free and survivors to speak up about domestic violence and sexual assault. The mission of Unsilenced Voices is to provide shelter and relief to survivors of domestic abuse and sexual gender-based violence worldwide. Unsilenced Voices has been operating in Ghana and Sierra Leone where they are working to implement shelters, sensitization programs, legal assistance, vocational training, medical and counseling to survivors. The organization is currently developing essential partners in the United States to serve the greater Los Angeles area. In the entertainment industry, Michelle has worked in casting, as an agent, producer, and actress in television, film and on the stage. Michelle wrote, produced and performed a critically acclaimed play about her experience with the same title as her book. The play debuted at the largest Solo Festival on the West Coast, The White Fire SoloFest, with a nearly sold out performance in February 2016. The show, also staged in the 2016 Hollywood Fringe Festival, received multiple reviews and commendations. Michelle has had numerous appearances on talk shows, speaking engagements and workshops and has led multiple seminars on the harsh reality of violence against women and overcoming obstacles.

Book Description
Born and raised in Cherry Creek, Edmund Fitzgerald was the sort of man who tried to find the good in all things. As a natural leader, Fitz reclaimed his trauma after half his body burned in a fire and worked his way up to Fire Chief at the local department. He had a good home, and good friends, even if his romantic life left something to be desired. In spite of his bad luck in love, he managed to keep a cheerful smile on for everyone. At least, until Antoine Tremblay crashed into town. Literally. As the older twin with absent parents and a chip on his shoulder, Antoine and his brother grew up nomadic-the inconvenient offspring of traveling teachers who wanted nothing more than to spend their lives seeing the world. While his friends were dreaming of road trips, Antoine was dreaming of a home to call his own. Retreating into his consulting career, Antoine dedicates his life to stabilizing small town economies, and doesn't hesitate to take a job in Cherry Creek-a town that makes it very clear it doesn't want Antoine there. Before he even crosses the city limits, Antoine is run off the road by a wild goat, and he's forced to accept a rescue by a wary man who makes it very clear that Antoine's presence in Cherry Creek is not welcome.And what's worse, the ridiculously attractive, absolutely infuriating Fire Chief seems to be at the center of every single one of his disasters that happens after-and unfortunately there are many. All Antoine wants is to do his job and go home, but Cherry Creek seems to have it in for him, and Edmund Fitzgerald seems thrilled to watch him fall apart. It might be real hatred, or it might just be pigtail pulling, but Antoine isn't sure which, and he's not really sure he wants to know. After all, a place like Cherry Creek will never be his home. Fitz has never found someone worth fighting for, and Antoine has never found a reason to stay, but they know that looking at each other leaves them absolutely breathless. Will that be enough to make a relationship work, or will they decide that their love isn't worth the fight?Love Him Breathless is the second book in the series On The Market. It contains no cheating and a happily ever after.

Book Description
The first time Parker Alling set eyes on his future husband, he was eight years old, and he punched him in the face. It was the moment his life with Ronan Hedrek was tied together in knots that could never be undone. Of course, things weren't always easy. Guilt tried to tear them apart, Ronan's Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis threw a wrench in their future plans, and Parker's fear that Ronan would never love him enough was always present. But in the grand scheme of things, none of that mattered, because Parker and Ronan finally had their happily ever after. Then Jonas Woods came to town. Jonas had lived under the heavy, pressing, cruel thumb of his father for most of his life. In spite of that, Jonas grew up kind, and it crushed him every time he was forced to enter a small town, knowing the havoc his father's company will wreak when he's done with his million-dollar condos and corporate shops putting all the locals out of business. Jonas does what he can to soften the blow, but his power only extends so far. Still, he's determined to save Cherry Creek, and his resolve is only strengthened when he meets the town's reluctant but sweet Park Ranger who isn't sure what to make of the young man claiming that he wants to help instead of ruin. Parker is captivated by just how quickly Ronan falls under the younger man's spell. Instinct tells him to protect what's his, but his heart is telling him there might be room for one more person in their lives. Jonas is determined not to be a homewrecker, and Ronan is determined to guard the integrity of his marriage, but Parker thinks their happily ever after isn't quite as finished as he once thought. Jonas' trauma keeps him reluctant to believe he's wanted, but once Ronan is on board, Parker is certain they can convince him that their love is worth the risk. The only question is, will that quiet, reserved man finally let Parker and Ronan love him absolutely wild? Love Him Wild is the third book of On The Market.
