Serenity Placeby Erica N. Martin
The staff of Serenity Place all share one common goal, bringing the men and women of Chicago complete relaxation and satisfaction, a goal instilled in them since their date of hire by owner Chyna Stewart. But with issues of their own, will they be able to perform to the highest standards demanded by Chyna? Destiny, the "Mr. Wrong Magnet" thinks the curse of the "Bad Men" has finally been broken when she meets Qwan, the man of her dreams. But has she really met her worst nightmare? Lamont, the makeup artist has had it up to here with his lying, cheating lover and decides to take matters in his own hands. But why has his 1 night stand turned into a 2 night, 3 night well you know the rest. Gabrielle just knew that Maurice was her future husband when she packed her things and moved from New York to the Windy City, only to find that he has started over...without her. Will she be able to bounce back from this blatant case of betrayal? Tavion and Javion, identical twin masseurs, take pleasure in satisfying the ladies, by any means necessary. But when their side hustle forces Tavion to choose between his pocket and his heart, Javion is furious with the choice his brother makes. Finally Stephanie, the manicurist, has seen too much already in her 19 years but that will be nothing compared to what she will face in order to save her mother's life. Let the staff of Serenity Place, a day spa based in Chicago take you on an exhilarating ride filled with pampering and relaxation. Serenity Place is a compelling, pageturner filled with suspense and many surprises. I came up with the idea for Serenity Place when I visited a spa resort in Canada. I was going through a trying time and the pampering I received that day took all the stress away even if it was only for one day! But the book is about choices and how making the wrong ones can have dire consequences. We must be careful about the choices that we make. I hope that this book demonstrates the need for careful thinking when making decisions that affect ourselves as well as the others around us. - Erica N. Martin Reviews: *I absolutely loved the storyline of Serenity Place. It was a fast-paced, mind-altering read. I truly felt as if I was a staff member at "Serenity Place". I love novels in which I feel a close bond with the characters. As I reflect upon the novel as a whole, I must say that I was empowered by the authors many underlying words of wisdom. In fact, I was awestruck when I read, "A person can only do what you allow them to." Followed by, "God doesn't give you more than what he thinks you can handle." Even though I have heard various versions of these statements before, the positively inspiring impact they exude never ceases to amaze me. Based upon my undeniable admiration of Serenity Place, I am a fan for life. I am thoroughly impressed with Erica Martin as an author. She succeeded in captivating my attention with Serenity Place. - Lynel Washington, Copyeditor. *Erica N. Martin has penned a delightful novel that will tantalize readers from beginning to end. The characters were well-rounded, and I enjoyed getting to know them. The story flip-flops between characters, so readers are given a glimpse into each of their lives. There are a few grammatical errors, but they will not distract the readers attention. All in all, SERENITY PLACE is a well-written novel, and I look forward to reading other novels by this author. 4 stars!

She is a stickler for not mixing business with pleasure...that is until she meets Mike Dennison, a high roller used to getting what he wants and when he wants it Blake Morris is a mother of two, married to a man several years her senior. While fighting the "Battle of the Bulge," she soon learns that her husband's drug addiction may call for her to lose an extra 205 pounds...HIM! Ariel Adams has it all, a beautiful daughter, a comfortable apartment, a job with growth potential and now she has found the man of her dreams...or has she? Mya McPherson is a beautiful girl hiding a terrible secret from her friends but they are closing in quick. She is determined not to disappoint them again and would rather die trying not to. Second Time Shame on Me is a story about the problems that many women have personally experienced or know someone who has. The four women use their powers of true friendship, loyalty and love to help each other make it through the tough times. Sydni the main character is so committed to her friendships that she often finds herself entangled in a web of all their problems, while trying to balance the troubles of her own. This story will have you crying, laughing and cheering for these four women in their on-going efforts to attain true happiness. "I don't want Second Time to be perceived as a "Girlie Book" or a "Male basher" because the lesson behind it doesn't discriminate. We as people in general must learn to learn from our mistakes. If you allow someone or something to continously abuse you, whether it be physically or emotionally, when they have already demonstrated that they will, then it is no longer the fault of the abuser but that of your own." - Erica N.Martin Reviews:
The book was great!! I can hardly wait for the next one. I finished reading it weeks ago but I finally got enough time to sit and tell you what I thought. Stay strong and keep up the good work -Marlo
Hello, Erica I really enjoyed your book. Your mother was right it was hard to put it down. I can relate to the book myself being a single Mom with 3 kids. I told my sister that the book was very good but couldn't find the words to tell her just how good it was! I would like to buy all of your books if I can. Stay in touch. Keep going girl! You have it going on with your writing novels. - Karmyn To purchase Second Time Shame on Me, click on the "Buy Now" Button
