His Battle, Her Love by Star Singletary
My life here in New York is somewhat awesome and somewhat terrible. The reason for the bad part is I miss Rose so much. Every damn time I turn around she’s on my brain like a tumor. She’s on my mind when I go to sleep and when I wake up, but it's my fault. I should’ve just been honest about everything and just maybe Rose will still be with me right now. I hurt her to the point she ignores my phone calls, text messages, and she doesn’t write me back. I love that woman with all my heart but she can’t see that because all she sees is me having sex with different women, including her friend that I slept with. On the other hand, I’ve made quite the name for myself here in New York the ladies like me, but I don’t do anything sexual with them. I just suggest some ideas to them on how to spice their relationships or marriages up, I take some on dates, and I even teach some of the women self-love. You guys, I wish I could get Rose out of my head… Lord Help me move on... show me a sign...

21 min - Author Chat: Dear Sis..
Dear Sis . . . part memoir, part self-help guide, and journal for adolescent to teenage girls. I take you on the journey of my life, my messy experiences from middle school through young adulthood that helped shape who I am today, while giving you the opportunity to self-reflect on your own journey to self-discovery.
This book allows young ladies to understand and know that they are not alone and that quite often we all share the same stories. Each chapter provides pertinent lessons I learned along the way ending with thought provoking questions to get the wheels turning on how you want to show up in the world. It is my hope and prayer that you are empowered to be yourself completely without shame or guilt after reading.Available on Amazon
