A READER'S REVIEW of my book DESTINY OF THE DIVAS

I checked Amazon.com, the other day, to see if there were any new reviews of my book. There was, and I'm proud enough to post it here. See it below.

I devoured this book rather quickly, it had been several years since I have sit still
long enough to read, or get enveloped in a fictional story. That said, this was a
delightful treat for my mind, body and spirit. As a female, older than the "target
audience" range, I found it most refreshing that the characters were not portrayed
as unbelievable comic book heroines, nor did they deal with unrealistic issues.
Personally, I was most impressed that the details of the subject matter, kidnapped,
missing and exploited children, were kept to a minimum, yet the urgency and
importance were pursued with reverence and respectful of 'victims' anywhere and
everywhere. Destiny's Divas activated a "name game" passion within and I
thought it fitting to add to Ernie's character naming: Danielle (meaning God is my
judge); Dana (meaning coming into own power); Lisa (meaning the consecrated
one of divine spirituality); and, Wendy (meaning the wanderer who walks with
God). The symbolic meaning to the names, simply added to the author's fitting
portrayal of his characters. The author's attention to the factual statistics and
truths regarding abductions, would make the "National Center for Missing and
Exploited Children" proud, as a previously active member and volunteer for their
photographing and fingerprinting campaigns, my thoughts of this story would be
the perfect 'babysitter' gift of awareness - or anyone caring for children. It is also
quite apparent that the author knows police procedure, legal loopholes for
criminals, as well as forensic evidence, as he references his knowledge in subtle and
profound dialogue between his characters. Destiny's Divas was truly an
emotionally charged lesson in the Miracle of youthful purpose and sacrifice,
leaving my heart filled with HOPE for our future. It is a story I will remember
forever and most definitely share with my grandchildren.
