hard Pressed – coming in 2023!
A NOVEL
What if the Dahomeyan Amazons had made it to America? What if their descendants are secretly walking among us today?
Dia has hit rock bottom. Jobless, penniless, and at the mercy of a toxic mother, she finds refuge in a women’s social group that is actually an Afro-supremacist organization. Throughout her metamorphosis, Dia is torn between her past demons and her new family of Mothers and Sisters, whose real mission she is totally unaware of.
How far will Dia go to belong?
Hard Pressed is a story of a lost, broken girl who found herself when she blossomed into a warrior.
