From birth, Indigo’s  life is complicated. Immediately after she is born to the very young and very beautiful Ruby, she is abandoned by both of her parents. However, a turn of events forces Ruby to reluctantly care for the child she wishes she never had. Provocative, shapely, and self- absorbed, Ruby, is more concerned with getting a man’s attention than giving any attention to her child.  Meanwhile, the identity of Indigo’s father is shrouded in mystery.

Emotionally broken, sexually confused, and unaware of her beauty, Indigo seeks love and acceptance from array of unforgettable characters. Each character, leaving an undeniable mark in her life – some break her and some make her stronger. Love arrives in the form of the strikingly handsome and suave restaurateur Tyrone Mayfield. But his love comes with a price as he draws Indigo deeper into his other businesses. While Indigo does not have much of a life without Tyrone in it, with him she may die. In this page turner, loyalties will be tested, secrets will be exposed, and some won’t live  to tell.

Take a ride on this journey and experience the life of “Blue”, as she learns how to survive in the real world and the underground world that has been created for her……..

 

Meet Dr. Mubarak

Meet Dr. Lynda Jones Mubarak and her book, Stations.
In order to live a vibrant and successful life, you must embrace two truths: everyone’s life path is about change, and each phase of life offers opportunities that we often overlook. No matter where you find yourself in life, you have unexplored talent, unimagined resources, and the ability to make the most of the station you are occupying at the moment.

New parents, teen parents, new workers, and experienced workers re-entering the labor force, are you ready for the 21st century workplace? How are you preparing your children for the world of work? If your future does not look promising, there may be some personal lifestyle routines, unrealistic expectations, or self-defeating behaviors worth examining. STATIONS is a collection of essays exploring the life lessons many of us encounter as we grow and change in a world fueled by information and technology.

Origins

I started this project as a film because I wanted to work with my cousin, Pete. You will notice one of the main character’s name is Pete. The character has a lot of his mannerisms. He becomes a good straight man for the character of Gilda. BUT ReCovery is book number 4. It focuses on The Closer, which is the guy in the black jacket and Claire who is not in the photos.
Like a movie director, I like telling you the story in a certain order. I want you to see what Claire became before you see what she was. Privateers, the 1st book in the series, is available for $8.99.
