The review is also available online.

M. D. Meyer will be launching her newest contemporary novel, Jasmine, at McNally Robinson Booksellers in Winnipeg, MB on April 1st at 7:00 PM.

Jasmine marks the beginning of a new series by M. D. Meyer; one that chronicles the healing journey of seven young people in the fictional First Nations community of Rabbit Lake. The first step in the healing journey is to courageously “face the problem.”

Jasmine Peters is doing everything in her power to avoid talking about, or dealing with, what happened to her. But when the past interfaces with the future, Jasmine not only puts herself at risk but also endangers the life of newly commissioned RCMP constable, Andrew Martin.

Jasmine is published by Word Alive Press and is available for sale in bookstores across Canada. ISBN: 978-1-926676-87-6. Price: $14.95.

Nikki Rosen is pleased to announce the publication of her book, In the Eye of Deception: A True Story.

One woman's struggle to overcome the effects of child abuse, rape and addictions. A story filled with hope, faith, and the realization that God can be trusted to bring about complete healing and recovery.

"My heart broke. My eyes became swollen and red from my tears. The closer I came to finishing her book, my heart filled more and more with love for God and how He alone brought her through. It is a powerful story of redemption. It is a powerful story of how God can turn what is meant to destroy us into something which uplifts us and glorifies HIM. I give In The Eye of Deception 5 out of 5 stars. The book is fantastic. The book will indeed set you free." Valerie Lynn: Book Reviewer at Simply4God
