quote
“We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection.
Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them – we can only love others as much as we love ourselves. Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.” Brené Brown |

Invested in the characters! This fast-paced 2nd book in the Annie Hawkins series kept me turning pages late into the night. Jeannée Sacken's experiences overseas shine in her writing, making the descriptions and dialog come alive on the page. This se ...more |

| Laugh-out-loud funny. I love how Melissa combines an older amateur sleuth with a young, gaming detective. As the bodies piled up, I couldn't wait to see how she wrapped up the mystery. I was delighted to see the friendship grow between the two contra ...more | |

Is like a pleasant sleep,

The dreams that by me sweep.”

“The dark does not destroy the light; it defines it. It's our fear of the dark that casts our joy into the shadows.”

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
