Love Isn’t Always the Answer

September 20, 2025 By

As a successful former prosecutor and defense lawyer, Shelley Lynne Levisay thought she understood the dynamics of domestic violence. She fought for victims in the courtroom, armed with logic, evidence, and a deep-seated belief in justice. But when a charismatic and decorated veteran named Matthew walked into her life, she discovered that the heart does not always listen to the head.

What began as a storybook romance devolved into a suffocating web of manipulation, isolation, and terror. Shelley’s confidence was eroded by relentless gaslighting, her independence stripped away by coercive control, and her safety shattered by physical abuse. She was living a double life: a poised attorney in public and a prisoner in her own home, all while financially supporting the very man who was destroying her.

The nightmare culminated in her own arrest, a public humiliation that threatened to end her legal career and everything she had worked for. *Love Isn’t Always the Answer* is Shelley’s harrowing, courageous story of surviving the unthinkable, facing a justice system from the other side, and finding the strength to rebuild a life that is truly her own. It is a vital, unforgettable memoir for our times. $2.99 on Kindle.

Bare Naked in Public

June 23, 2025 By

Sometimes you have to risk baring it all.

Christine Amoroso did everything right to achieve the perfect life. Falling for a sandy-haired surfer and landing pregnant at seventeen, she knew the “right” thing to do. She could have it all, even if in the “wrong” order: beautiful children, a good marriage, and approval from those around her. Until it all fell apart.

Ever the overachiever, she continued to take on too much, finishing college with two kids in tow. But as her responsibility grew, so did her resentment. A stressed-out young mom, an inattentive husband, and the attention of another man made the perfect recipe for disaster. Hard work and responsible decisions had not guaranteed a happy life or lasting love. She had failed, and now she floundered as she tried to find a fresh start. She turned inward for answers rather than seeking external validation.

After a few missteps, she slowly learned her worth couldn’t come from a list of accolades, achievements, or some guy. Her story is an earnest and humorous account of what it’s like to be a modern American woman trying to have it all and the dangers of losing oneself in the process.

Bare Naked in Public is a must-read memoir for burnt-out overachievers seeking answers about their worth while finally forgiving their past. $0.99 on Kindle.

If You Must Go, I Wish You Triplets

May 26, 2025 By

“What a fantastic book…like reading a mystery, racing to see what happens…and then finding clarity and the triumph of the ending.”—ABIGAIL THOMAS, New York Times bestselling author of A Three Dog Life

Sometimes, we know the least about those we love the most.

It took less than an hour for an old life to end and a new one to begin. When Virginia DeLuca’s sixty-year-old husband abruptly walked out on their serene and happy—even joyful—marriage, proclaiming a sudden desire to have babies, everyone had a theory. He already knocked someone up. Nervous breakdown. Brain tumor.

After DeLuca met her husband, she learned that it was possible for her to love with abandon and entwine her life with this caring and compassionate man. But fourteen years later, she was only left with the mystery of the ending.

DeLuca, a psychotherapist, spent decades helping clients cope with sudden losses and dramatic changes—and now it’s happened to her. Now, she must hunt to find the truth of her own story.

In the tradition of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb, If You Must Go, I Wish You Triplets is an unflinching exploration of love and relationships from a woman who ultimately found that life can expand in unanticipated ways. $0.99 on Kindle.
