Rejected by a bitter father with high political ambitions and manipulated by a hungry wolf in sheep’s clothing, Butterfly’s greatest desire is to fly away. Her spineless mother adds to the anguish when she leaves Butterfly to fend for herself on the cold, unforgiving streets.

Like any desperate hustler, Butterfly gets on her grind and masters a few quick money-making schemes. For a brief period she enjoys the glitter and romance until her biggest lie creates a hostile frenemy who shows no mercy. Soon, Butterfly’s troubled life tumbles violently out of control.

By chance she runs into Atwater, the perfect man with the perfect plan to stabilize her otherwise twisted world. With the lure of power and wealth beyond her imagination, Atwater entices Butterfly to undertake a part in his shiesty scams. Her acceptance will usher in what’s sure to be a tumultuous storm that neither of them can escape.

Will Butterfly consent to temptation or fly away to free herself from Atwater’s devilish arms?

Jan Hinds, author of Breads: Not So Secret Family Recipes Book 8

Breads: Not So Secret Family Recipes Book 8 is a compilation of family recipes collected from five generations. The series is my effort to preserve and share these recipes so they don’t become lost.

I have also included a bread baking tutorial in the front of the book to help novice bakers to overcome. The cookbooks in this series are also peppered with tidbits from the lives of the cooks who loved these recipes enough to save them.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write “Breads (Not So Secret Family Recipes Book 8)”?

Having them as an ebook makes it so much easier to find what I want. Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Jan Hinds, author of Breads: Not So Secret Family Recipes Book 8 →
