Our 4 Star Review
Trudy has had on hell of a ride and it will break your heart to follow her story.
I don't know how many times I got tears in my eyes while reading this story.
(My Parents became foster parents when I was thirteen and I have spent all these years since then seeing what young child go through and the struggles they have to overcome)
Trudy (Tru) Well her story hit home. She just wanted to be loved and she thought she would finally have that but when Brad took her happiness away she lost hope.
She went off to school to attempt to move forward but silently continued to drown in her grief.
I loved Jazz...she was an insta friend. She was exactly what Trudy needed in her life.
With her came her brother Jax and whole other group of friends and family. They accepted Trudy as one of their own.
Their Journey wasn't an easy one...but then again life never is but when you have Great people to help you through the hard times it makes it all worth it in the end.
Heartbreak...
Heartache...
Loss...
Love...and friendship, It has it all...
Don't miss this series.

Book #2 - Learning to Heal


"If Fools rush in, then most people in love are idiots. And I'm the biggest one of all."
-Jazz
Meet Jasmine Coleman. She's the girl that's outgoing, beautiful, and full of self-assurance- a confidence that’s forced to cover the scars she hides. When rushing into love becomes a heartbreaking mistake the last piece of it disappears. Now she is left uncertain, weak, and full of self-loathing. But her strength is needed now more than before.
Mason Reed is the quiet computer geek that's always the friend and never the boyfriend. Putting his social life on hold to help his single mother has left him shy when it comes to the opposite sex. And Meeting Jazz is no different. However being in love makes you do crazy things and his crazy has major consequences. Especially when the truth is revealed to others who are determined to rip them apart.
Rash Decisions have major consequences. Some good. Some bad. All Life Changing.
"The Truth doesn't always set you free. Sometimes it breaks you apart and leaves you in pieces."

Our 4 Star Review
Jazz was a perky spunky overload but in  good way. She was the friend you want because no matter what that girl had our back and she was always in your corner.
But oh my goodness the girl had terrible taste in men...What the hell was that girl thinking...lol
That is until she finally allows Mason a chance. She starts seeing him in a different light and when they fall it is the sweetest.
That boy was a good guy for her, he loved her like she deserved and stood by her side even when she didn't want him too.
It was rough like any other relationship but when it worked oh it worked great.
I loved how Mason was with Grace his sister. It said a lot for his character because any man that has that amount of patience in my book is
ONE
SEXY
FELLA....
This Series is full of events that happen ever day. Life is not all hearts and flowers. Not everyone goes through there life without heartache and torment. When I read a book I wanna read about things that feel real. I don't want a cushy book full of make believe...I want to feel what the characters within the book feel and in this series...
I FELT THEIR PAIN...

Book #3 - Learning to Forgive - Coming June 2014


“I’ve learned a lot this past year, but there are two things I’ll never forget: one, People aren’t what they seem, and two, I fucking hate liars.” –Blaire
Blaire Morgan was a quiet, grief stricken girl when she left Mobile, Alabama, a year ago after her brother’s unexpected death. She returns a year later with fresh wounds from another betrayal, and she’s not the same person. A woman letting her tortured past rule her life, her “take no shit” attitude is catching the attention of everyone that crosses her path, including the bad boy front man of Lyrical Obsessions—the new band that plays at Jay Jay’s. When she learns he has something she wants, she plans on doing whatever it takes to get it.
What is a demon? An evil spirit possessing a person, acting as a tormentor in Hell?
Lyric “The Demon” Devereux is that tormentor and Hell is any place he sees fit, either in the fighting ring or on the streets. He killed his first person at seventeen years old, and that list has grown over the years—as well as his list of enemies—but his biggest enemy is himself and he doesn’t know how to win that battle.
When Blaire comes into town like wildfire and turns heads, Lyric’s temper emerges—uninvited and unexpected. His plan to stay at a distance for her safety, and his sanity, changes when she continuously shows up with her defiance and seductive pull. He now has no choice but to face his past that could possibly destroy the both of them.
Tempers will detonate. Lust will consume. Truth will destroy. But will love forgive?


R.D. Cole is a lively person with a determination to make it in life. Once her mind gets set on an idea she pursues it with passion. As long as she has God and her family she feels she can conquer everyday. Besides reading and writing she loves to sing, dance, and go mudding on her Souped-up Can Am. Her hubby is 9 years younger but he seems more mature than her at times and they level one another out. She has a beautiful daughter named Bethani who is a miracle and a fighter. She’s the only known living survivor of Matthew Woods Syndrome and when no one thought she’d live R.D. said “yes she will.” R.D. takes nothing for granted when it comes to life. “Everything can be ripped from your fingers before they can grasp it. So if you want something in life, do it. Go for it.”
That same mindset has helped R.D. write small pieces of her life mixed in to fictional settings and characters that will capture your heart.
“Read on. Dream on. Write on.” –R.D. Cole
