Love, Crime, And Passion

By Brenda Bradley

Social worker, Myra Stone, is engaged to be married to an attractive, attentive businessman. Unknown to Myra, the man she is marrying is really a ruthless criminal who is determined to hide his illegal activities from her at all cost.

She has made some major changes in her life and is no longer the overweight, awkward teenager who lost both of her parents in an auto accident.

As a teenager, Myra fell in love with handsome Jessie Demarcus, but he only wanted her as a friend. He joined the army and left town over ten years ago. Now he's back and wants Myra back in his life as more than just a friend.

My greatest joy is I get to use my imagination. My stories are created from my experiences working in the foster care system for ten years. Also, because I grew up in Baltimore, I have based some of my characters loosely on people I have known from my childhood and places I have visited. I have let some of my characters flourish, and others have chosen the wrong path. But because I love happy endings, the main characters always find what they need to make their lives better.
