The Kindness of Strangers: Penniless Across America
By: Mike McIntyre
(65 Reviews)
FREE for a limited time
Stuck in a job he no longer found fulfilling, journalist Mike McIntyre felt his life was quickly passing him by. So one day he hit the road to trek from one end of the country to the other with little more than the clothes on his back and without a single penny in his pocket. Through his travels, he found varying degrees of kindness in strangers from all walks of life, and discovered more about people and values and life on the road in America than he’d ever thought possible. The gifts of food and shelter he received along the way were outweighed only by the touching gifts of the heart, the willingness of many he met to welcome a lonely stranger into their homes…and the discovery that sometimes those who give the most are the ones with the least to spare.

Overlay – A Tale of One Girl’s Life in 1970s Las Vegas (Memoirs of Marlayna Glynn Brown)
By: Marlayna Glynn Brown
(41 Reviews)
FREE for a limited time
Overlay is the first in the trilogy, Memoirs of Marlayna Glynn Brown.
This extraordinary tale of survival and resilience recorded in spare and convincing prose. Written from a child’s point of view from ages 4 to 17, this tale describes the turbulent childhood of the author in 1970s Las Vegas.
The desert perimeter serves as a hot, dry and dangerous barrier that shuts out the rest of the vibrant world and bleaches away any sense of the joy that colors childhoods. Born into an ongoing cycle of alcoholism and abandonment amidst fallen adults, Marlayna develops a powerful sense of self-preservation in contrast to the people entrusted with her care. Her story explores the personalities of the bizarre characters who populate her life as she moves from home to home, parent to parent, family to family and ultimately to homelessness at the age of fourteen.
Out of the resources of her remarkable childhood emerges an inner strength that will charm and captivate readers and remain in their consciousness long after the last page of her story has been turned.

By: Tameka Hicks
(24 Reviews)
FREE for a limited time
What does one do when all odds are stacked against you from the beginning? In Tamara Brown’s case, the answer was simple enough; she would have to make her own way. Being raised by her grandmother and never getting to meet her dad, Dysfunctional tells the story of Tamara’s early childhood years as she struggles to overcome the void left by her parents’ abandonment, which transformed her into a seemingly uncaring young lady. But was she this atrocious teenager, or was it just a way to mask the pain she endured.
At times during this 230 page novel, you’ll find yourself rooting for her, and at times, against Tamara because as we all know, some actions that people commit are justified and some are downright evil. Tamara sits right in the middle of your emotional plane as she allows you on a journey through her life, while she betrays, seduces and conspires to get what she feels she deserves: A better life and revenge. Curious to find out if these aspirations were met, or if life showed Tamara who was the boss, pull up a chair because you are about to take a trip down Dysfunctional Lane.
