The Breaking Point The Breaking Point
Experience the story that started it all!  The Breaking Point is the powerful story of a woman's imprisonment for the brutal murder of her husband.  Vanessa Jackson is a reporter from the Women's Lib Magazine, on assignment at the Wayne County Women's Correctional Facility to interview Marion Hayes and find out what drove her to kill. 
 
You will fall whole-heartedly into this roller-coaster journey through the life of a woman who has seen every kind of hardship life could have to offer.  Plunge with Vanessa into the troubled mind of a woman who is a prisoner of her own mind and emotions, to find out what finally drives her to murder her childhood sweetheart and loving husband.  Find out what drives her to the breaking point.

ASTBW As Told By the Other Woman
In this second installment you've never seen adultery turn out so badly! Vanessa Jackson is back on assignment at the Wayne County Women's Correctional Facility and this time it's to interview Timberlynn Crawford, a young woman who is sentenced to life for cold-blooded murder!

What would drive a young girl to commit such a heinous crime? Lust and lies are the underlying forces that drove this seemingly harmless girl to do the unthinkable.

E-Book Special-$5


Beautiful Rage Beautiful Rage: The Break of Dawn
Vanessa Jackson is at it again, and this time her assignment at the Wayne County Women's Correctional Facility has brought her to Dawn Langston; a woman turned vigilante against the man who kidnapped, raped, tortured, and then brutally murdered her sister.  The violently cold-blooded and savage nature of the crime leads Vanessa to question her ability to execute her assignment successfully.
 
As Vanessa continues her crusade as "the voice" of the lost and forgotten souls that inhabit the prison walls, she finds herself on the brink of an emotional breakdown as she falls deeper into their world of pain, loss, and sorrow.

 E-Book Special- $5
