    We Still Don't Have a Miracle Baby: When Someday Feels Like a Four-Letter Word

    • 2018

      Any woman who has struggled to conceive can tell you that every month that passes with another failed pregnancy test is a month spent grieving. And throughout it all, the worst part is often well-meaning friends and family members who offer unsolicited "advice" or ask insensitive questions.This book is my story, but it's written for not only those who have gone through infertility but those who know couples struggling to conceive and don't know what to say (or what not to say). It's a glimpse into the depths of grief that childless couples often don't talk about, in the hopes that someone will read this book and understand why "Why don't you have kids yet" is not an appropriate question to ask. Ever.It's also a story of hope, even though it's unfinished. I wanted to write this book before my story "ended" with a "miracle baby" or adoption, because I wanted to write it while the pain and the grief and the agony was still fresh. And I wanted to write it when the miracles in my life have been not children but smaller steps closer to God, my husband, and my family. This may not be a story wrapped up in a bow, but that's the point. Not every woman gets a miracle. And we need to figure out how to let that be okay, how to allow women struggling to conceive to live in the here and now and not get caught forever in a perpetual "someday" they may never get.

      Michelle's best friend, Aaron, and the girl who has a piece of her soul, Izzy, have been kidnapped. It's more than obvious that this is a ploy by Michelle's father, the evil tyrant king of the magical realm, to trap her . . . but she can't leave her friends defenseless.But when Michelle goes with Andrew and Elaine to spring the trap, her own sanity is at risk. Her half-brother and her father have the key to the memory block in her mind, and they are using hundreds of years of memories as a weapon to keep her contained.Trapped in the space between the past and the present, between reality and memory, between familial loyalty and loyalty to the Rendezvous, Michelle can hardly keep her head, let alone keep her friends safe. But she knows better than anyone: if she can't regain control of her own mind, her friends are dead.

      Michelle can't remember anything farther back than two years ago, when she appeared memory-less on the streets. But when a princess named Elaine and her bodyguard, Andrew, kidnap and press-gang her into joining a war against a magical overlord she never knew existed, something tells her she's been in this fight longer than she thinks. Her first mission for the rebel organization known as the Rendezvous takes her into the middle of the Bermuda Triangle, where a temporal spell has kept witches trapped for decades and the laws of magic and Time itself are being perverted for the Royalists' gain. But Michelle, a Halfsie, only half-witch and half-human, doesn't know the laws of magic. And her ignorance may just come at a cost.
