NEW COVER ART is coming soon to all the books in the series! And, BOOK 4 in the Bitter Memories series is now in the Proofing Stage! Plus a BONUS is coming! Two short stories will be included at the back of Book 4! One is non-fiction, the other a fantasy.

My goal is to have all 4 of these books in paperback with new covers within the next 4 to 5 months! That’s if my artist can meet this deadline, and he’s doing his best to make it! At this time, the first two in the series are no longer in paperback, but you may still buy them until retailer’s stock is depleted. However, I do recommend, if you really want the paperback, wait until they have been redone! The price will be a few dollars cheaper, and the new cover art will be awesome!

THE SERIES

BOOK ONE: Bitter Memories: A Memoir of Heartache & Survival (non-fiction) is written like a novel for easy reading, as I tell the true story of my life after being kidnapped by my father, then living a life on the run, hungry, abused and terrified ... so terrified that I split into multiple personalities … a truly unforgettable, unnerving story of extreme child abuse and my fight to survive… NOTE: This is not a cozy, feel-good book. It is a true story of extreme child abuse and my struggle to survive. It contains adult language and graphic content, but it was my life.

BOOK TWO: Trophy Murders (creative non-fiction/crime fiction) mixes fiction with truth for an action-packed crime story as I take you further on the journey of true events after going to live with Uncle Henry (the cop) and his heavy-handed wife Olivia. A life I wouldn’t wish on any kid … Problems at school, continued nightmares from my past, and a narrow-minded, bigoted Olivia, brings me to a dangerous low in my life … After a gang moves into the house on the hill and a murdering spree begins, Police Chief Henry Frye (my uncle) is asking himself how many must die before he catches the ones responsible for turning our quiet, peaceful town into a place of terror … Still trying to hide his own secrets and lies, Uncle Henry is afraid if I find out the truth it will destroy me ...

BOOK THREE: Cutter's Revenge (psychological thriller/crime fiction) has more twists and turns than a snake on Prozac, mixing about five percent truth with fiction. Using many of the same characters, I introduce new characters—many you’ll love, some you’ll love to hate … While another serial killer — maybe more ruthless than the gang of killers from the last book — stalks our little town, I continue my story after my adoption, leaning more toward the way my life could have been IF .… turning tragedy into a fantastic and exciting read. Although pure fiction on the revenge it does make for a pulse-pounding crime thriller. You just might find yourself listening for strange noises and things that go bump in the night when you enter Cutter’s Sadistic World... ENTER CUTTER’S WORLD … IF YOU DARE …

From The Heart: A Collection of Poems and Stories (non-fiction) is not part of the Bitter Memories series, but it could be. This book is a collection of fifteen poems from events in my life including short stories that inspired the writing of each poem. Starting with my first poem written at age nine after the death of my mother, I expose feelings never shared before … Also available in audio, From The Heart is not only inspirational but truly awesome as Beth McEwan, narrator, brings life to each poem and story.


All my books are based on or from actual events in my life. To learn more about the bitter memories series, and my book of poetry, please visit my website:
