Welcome to compassion, recovery & peace.

She Stands

When her husband suddenly changes from an adoring partner to a jealous, angry man, Nina’s security crumbles. Where should she turn for help, and when? Will she be able to motivate herself to assist others while suffering toxicity at work and dysfunction at home?

Meanwhile, her town of Sagecroft seemingly enjoys peace, unaware that a predator has slipped into their midst. Accidents and tragedies suddenly abound – are they somehow connected?

Will the source of darkness prevail? With each challenge, will Nina and the people of Sagecroft gain strength in faith or fall?

Happy Readers. True Testimonials.

Carin Jayne Casey
“A recommended read for anyone dealing with abuse. The abusive situations described throughout the book are shocking and sad. Vivid descriptions allow the reader to understand Rosa Jean’s pain and appreciate how she managed to get help and reclaim her faith. Although fiction, the author really connected with schemes that abusers use to control their victims. This is a recommended read for people wanting to understand their own situation or that of friends or family members who have suffered abuse.”

“I enjoyed the book, Mystery at Candice Bay. I have to admit, when Janie & Jake started getting together, I jumped ahead to the end of the book to see if he was guilty in any way. It didn’t ruin the story for me because I still needed to read the 50 some pages in-between. I’ve enjoyed all you’ve written… they’ve all been interesting.”

I was really touched by Carin Casey’s ‘My Dear Rosa Jean’, but at the same time, I was extremely angry. I was feeling sorry for Rosa Jean’s experience and her abusive relationship with her abuser; I was angry because I had no idea people could be so cruel toward one and other as a human being. I am very proud of Carin Casey’s courage to disclose her story with others and hopefully her story would help others to speak up and walk away from the cruelty situation they encounter.

Best of luck!
