Review for "Raw Redemption"


I'm very excited about my recent review for my last book, Raw Redemption. I sent out more than 200 review copies and at first, the reviews trickled in slowly. However, over the past month, I've received more than 20 back. This one touched my heart and I want to share it with you.

Cheyenne's character is touching and geniune. She became real to me and I could understand all that was written about her and the private thoughts she surely had at various points in the book that were not written. This book has everything- love, romance, personal conflict, multiple plot points and a satisfying end. This is Lacresha's finest work yet. Maybe fiction is her true calling!

We Wear Many Hats

Most people wear multiple hats. Sometimes, we find ourselves fulfilling so many roles that we have role confusion at the worst possible time. Am I supposed to be mother, wife or friend right now? This is personal but it crosses with my professional life, so which hat should I wear? Ever asked yourself either of those questions?

I work as an author, publisher, grant writer, business consultant, wife, mother, friend, abuse advocate, speaker and student. Role confusion happens, but I've learned that I'm not just one of those people. I'm all of those people and they all compose this single entity called Lacresha. While I've worked tirelessly to keep them all separated, I realized that was a mistake. I can section myself off and there's no reason to try. That was my solution. What's yours?
