A story of abuse, survival and the ultimate sacrifice to experience true love.
Rain is living the life that most women would kill for. She has more money than she knows what to do with, a closet full of pricey designer clothes and shoes, and the latest cars. A girl sitting on top of the world right?
Unfortunately, a very dark cloud darkens her horizon; the secret that she holds dear, which she has been slowing dying to keep for the last five years is threatened to be broadcast across the country in a rollercoaster event that will affect everyone that Rain touches.
Excerpt
Looking back over my life, there is one decision I will regret making for the rest of my life. I made the decision to put my mother first and it has cost me dearly. It almost cost me my best friend, my youth and childhood and it most definitely almost cost me my life. I was only fourteen when I made this decision. I know now that I couldn’t have known better if I had tried.
Although I left so long ago, it still feels like I am still stuck in the same year and time. But no, here I am, a few days until my nineteenth birthday and wife to a man I still hardly know even after five years of marriage. Ain’t that a bitch? A woman before I got my first period and I still haven’t had an orgasm!
Martin Powers wanted an ironing board for Christmas. Instead, he got . . . Matthew Kieler, a non-returnable gift, but a gift that kept on giving. A powerful tale of survival, compassion and unapologetic love in the time of AIDS.
