Life for twenty-seven-year-old Maria Brown consists of living in her tiny hometown, working the same job she's held since high school, and shouldering the responsibility of caring for her father. She's lived a contained life for so long, she knows no other way to exist. The moment NFL star, Malachi Douglass, lays eyes on Maria, he knows she's the woman he's been praying for and embarks on a journey to tear down her walls and make his home in her heart. Maria's become accustomed to suffocating within the boundaries of her small life. Maybe Malachi is just what she needs in order to learn how to breathe again.

Married at sixteen, a mother twice by seventeen, and thrice a mother and divorced by twenty-four, Adrienne Thompson is no stranger to adversity. Not your typical teenage mother, she went on to complete her college degree and to earn her nursing license. She attributes God's faithfulness as the catalyst for her success in life. Now, having raised three children as a divorced mother, she is sharing a long hidden talent and passion with the world. Using the lessons that life has so expertly taught her as a guideline (betrayal, abusive relationships, self-esteem issues, witnessing the deteriorating effects of drug abuse), she has created stories that will both entertain and inspire the reader. Adrienne currently resides in Arkansas in her newly empty nest. Formerly an RN, she now writes and publishes her stories full time. She is also a motivational speaker.
