| Publisher Description: Mrs. Essie Brown was having the time of her life. She was now an honorable matriculated New York resident in New York City, the ultimate big city. However, she never forgets her striving family, which was now dispersed all over the globe. If you have already read, Romancing On The Beach, Romancing Essie, A religious Romantic Ending, or Romance: Hot Island Erotica, then this is the rest of the story. This is the other half of the story that has never been told. See what became of Essie after her many romances. This is a must read. This story concentrates exclusively on Essie's (the main character from The Non-Silence of the LAMB) adulthood years. Unlike The Non-Silence of the LAMB, it doesn't show the relationships with her children's fathers. What it does show is how her children grew up to be responsible business owners and striving members of their society. Essie enjoys visiting them regularly as they were settled all around the world.

Many of these involved immigration issues and the parity of right and wrong in various sibling rivalries. Essie is forced to take sides and face the consequences of the others' wrath.

"Well, if yuh don't like it here, why don't yuh go back home to the country and leave us alone?" Myrtle said, irritated. She was fed up with his rude, sarcastic ways.' Excerpt #3 'That was the big secret that her mother Doris Lynn, died with. That was the reason her mother refused to discuss any information about the mysterious father of her expected child. Doris Lynn was ashamed and embarrassed because she had been...' |
