Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Sophie and Ash discovered they were expecting triplets, it was much more exciting than daunting. But when Sophie went into labour at only 21 weeks, their world was turned upside down. Though they fought fiercely they could not escape tragedy. Tiny Henry lived for just one cherished hour, Evan for 10 days and Jasper was with them for only 58 days. Heartbroken and back in her empty home, Sophie realised she could not allow herself to drown in her grief. On Ash's advice, she began to run. Step by step she regained some equilibrium. She became determined to turn her agony into something positive. Gathering supporters around her, she founded the Running for Premature Babies Foundation to raise money for the hospital unit that had cared for her sons. In their first Sydney half marathon, the group raised $80,000. Sophie and Ash had two more sons, Owen and Harvey, when tragedy revisited them. Ash was diagnosed with incurable brain cancer. Sophie was forced once again into a world of pain and grief, caring for her beloved husband as well as their two young boys. Together, the family faced the reality of death with courage and tenderness. When Ash passed away in 2016, Sophie once again put one foot in front of the other, and ran. Not running from her pain, but towards something useful. Her charity, the Running for Premature Babies Foundation, has now raised well in excess of $2.5 million to help the thousands of premature babies born each year. Beautifully written and disarmingly honest, Sophie's Boys is an inspiring and life-affirming tale of an irrepressible spirit, who found strength in tragedy.

When a professor discovered that the homework sent to him under a male pen name came from a woman...nothing stopped Sophie. And when she tackled a math problem that male scholars said would be impossible to solve...still, nothing stopped Sophie.

Book excerpt: Shhhhhhhh! is the gripping tale of the struggles faced by Wynona Wyatt, a young African American girl growing up in the boondocks of New Orleans. Faced with a mother who wanted nothing to do with children, a sexually abusive ‘uncle’, the lies and deceit throughout her mother’s family, and the loss of her father early in her life, Wynona learns to depend on herself and God in place of her family. Wynona Wyatt is the youngest child of Lemora and Woody, a timid girl who finds herself imbedded in the secrets of her mother’s past. She is reminded constantly as she grows that she was never wanted by her mother, a memory which haunts the girl through her womanhood. Wynona witnesses her mother’s tirades against her father on a daily basis, and though she proves herself intelligent and capable, she still holds on to the dagger wounds from her mother. Lemora Cavanaugh had chosen, after her childhood was full of raising her mother’s children, she wanted nothing to do with children, not even her own. Her tough-as-nails life had crushed all of her dreams and desires, leaving only the secret that carried through her family for two generations – maintain the façade of regality, no matter what. She disguises her own abuse through the caring of her siblings, adding an extra son to the Cavanaugh clan. It isn’t until she meets Woody Wyatt that she attempts, and fails, to express the more tender emotions of desire. Though her mother shovels nothing but darkness and mistrust at the girl, Wynona is shown the way to a happy heart by her father, Woody. Woody teaches Wynona the core values of kindness, patience, and looking for the beauty in the minutest things. Together, Woody and Wynona explore similar interests and find a mutual love in music. Woody Wyatt is the strong, caring father who tries to show Lemora how to love life instead of filling it with dread and distrust. His love for Lemora and their children is the key that keeps Wynona struggling to overcome her mother’s demons. He shows patience and kindness where Lemora denies the family the love and respect desired by the kids. His untimely death, however, hefts more weight on his little girl’s shoulders. For the first time in her young life, Wynona loses the music that filled her heart and lifted her spirits. After the loss of her father and best friend, Wynona feels the pangs of terror stronger than ever. No longer does she have at her disposal any form of trust, love, or security. Yet, through it all, Wynona finds within herself the courage and strength to carry on. Whereas Wynona turns to her father and his love for music to escape her tortured existence before his death, her older brother, Winston, being physically and emotionally abused himself turns to drugs as a means of blocking out the truth which eventually leads Winston to a destructive death. He leaves behind a legacy of his own secrets. Bringing more drama to the family’s life, Lemora’s ‘brother’ Lamar moves in with them almost on a permanent basis. Lamar becomes an even bigger nightmare to Wynona and her brother Winston, finding ways to verbally, physically and sexually abuse both children in the house which was to be the safe haven provided by Woody. It is only after Lamar’s funeral that Wynona learns the truth about Lamar’s birth-mother – the same woman who gave birth to her brother and her. Wynona witnesses and experiences these tribulations, but instead of letting them bring her to the depths of despair, she pulls herself through by following her heart, her father’s wisdom, and God’s grace. She meets and falls in love with Rory, the handsome, strong, sensitive man who becomes her saving grace. The love affair lasts through some difficulties: an unplanned pregnancy lost to miscarriage, the mistrust of Wynona's mother, and Wynona's secretive past abuse, but Wynona is determined to make it work. Eventually, the two marry, and are blessed with a beautiful baby boy they name Chauncey. But, as
