Meet Ashley Dawson. Rich, popular, you'd think she had it all. Unfortunately, that isn't quite the case. Her life at home is a complete mess. Her dad abuses her physically and verbally, her stepmother could rival the Wicked Witch of the West and her twin stepbrothers have made it their one goal in life to torment her.
 
   When one runaway attempt fails miserably, she decides to stay at home permanently, suck it up and be grateful for little mercies. However, all that changes when the only bright light in her life is snuffed out. 

   She runs away again, this time more successfully, and ends up in the care of a crazy African family, with an especially crazy grandmother , who teach her the true meaning of love, life and light, in the Lord. 
 
   Hold on to your seats folks, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.

"How can your God love me?" I asked in pure distress. "How can He love me after everything I've done? Doesn't He know where I come from or who I am? What I am?" "He does but that doesn't stop Him from loving you all the same." "How is that possible?" I wiped my eyes. "God is love; He loves you because it's in His nature to do so." He said and I could barely comprehend what he meant. "Give Him a chance to show His love to you." "I don't understand and I don't think I want to." I shook my head in denial. "I will see you later." I took the easy road and chose to run away, living in a world where I could be free and live happily was a dream I had given up on long ago. Especially now. "God loves you and believe it or not I do too. I love you Zaya, so much that I want you to be my wife." He said and I stopped on my tracks, then I turned to look at him intently. Marriage? Could I ever have that? "What?" I asked him. "Marry me," he looked into my eyes and I panicked. He meant it for some reason and that alone was enough to make me run away like the coward I was. * * * * * * * * Life was easy and perfect for Zaidan Nawan, she had everything. From the looks to the riches, she was the envy of so many people in the clan. But everything came crashing down when her father lost the battle to a wild lion and her twin brother died mysteriously. Being exposed to a series of misfortunes was enough for her family to be looked upon as cursed. Out of fear and wickedness, they were labelled black legs by the people and excluded from the community. After receiving a message, she sought to restore her family's fallen glory. After a search, she found her breakthrough, her solution in the person of Isaac Delaney, the careless white man who settled down with his people in a camping site deep into the forest. But things didn't work out as planned and when she thought everything was over for her, God found her. And just like that, her life began.

It seems like just yesterday I was saved. Not knowing what to do next or where I should go. Little by little I had to find my way and put together the lessons I was taught from different sources to seemingly lead a holy life. My supreme happiness came from when I found Jesus. Little did I know all I had to do was dwell in his heart and he would provide me with the wisdom I need and show me the things I could only fantasize about. Things like these seemed to me too precious to keep hidden, and that's when I knew I just had to share Who He is to the whole world. Visions, testimonies, miracles and more came knocking at my door leading me into a dose of Heaven on Earth. Blue Roses for My Bride series: Book 1 NOTE I am not a writer, but I do enjoy writing. I learn as I go where writing a book is concerned. So the book has a lot of flaws, typos and words may not be in the correct order. It may be a finished book but there is still lots of work to do on it. It is a draft of my process in writing the book, so please keep in mind that things will be constantly added, taken out or changed until it becomes how the Lord wants it to be. So when you do read it, please let the Lord guide you on discernment and help you to get on the right part with him. Please keep in mind that I am not perfect and I just wanna share the love and goodness of God.
