Looking for Beta Readers

After writing and publishing a few anthologies with a great team of authors, I am excited to announce that I am approaching the final stages to publishing my first novella entitled, Closure.
Here is when hard work and fun meet. Before Closure receives its final edit, and sent to print, I need some Beta Readers to read and provide honest feedback.

For those who have followed my blog, you know I have been working tirelessly on this piece since last year, and now it is in the hands of my editor.
If you are interested in reading and providing honest feedback (prior to print); please contact me.
Below is a brief synopsis. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for all your support!

Closure Synopsis:

Story Summary:

Sara James was an only child who loved the world and life. Sadly, her world came to a screeching halt upon the news of her mother’s tragic death.

Devastated by the loss of his wife, Garrison neglects his daughter and turns to the bottle for solace.

Desperate to feel loved and wanted, Sara tries to pickup the pieces of what was left of her family. Sadly, no matter how hard she tried, her father continued his lust for the bottle and spiraled down a dark and abusive path.

Once removed from her home, Sara tries to pickup what was left of her life and begins to live again. She becomes a successful caterer and fights to maintain her promise to never look back.

A phone call threatens to end Sara’s promise.

Garrison is on his deathbed and he is asking for his daughter. Will Sara face her father? Will she reject his request or will she finally fight back and tell him what she really thinks of him?

Closure is a must read journey of the heart. Grab your copy in 2014!

Excerpt : John Marshall Law School

The day finally arrived. I was going to be attending John Marshall Law School in Atlanta. This was one of the proudest moments of my father’s life. He was absolutely thrilled, that his only child, a daughter had been accepted. This made my father very happy and he just thought it was so poetic, that I would soon be a member of such an elite group as he was. After all, my father Jackson Martin had been an alumni of John Marshall Law School and maintained a perfect 4.0 gpa and had been one of the top in his class.
