PRAISE FOR BEFORE DAWN:

Overall I was really impressed with the depth and the emotional maturity that was explored in this book and would strongly recommend it to all women literature and contemporary fiction readers."-Heena Pardeshi

Her writing style is very gripping and her characters are relatable with their problems and reactions. It feels like something anyone might live through, and that's great for a reader.”-Michelle Albertini

Before Dawn tells a tale not often told and is a work that deserves a read."-LaToya Hankins

If you are looking for a heartfelt, family/friends-centered book with heavy character development and an original plot- this is definitely the book you need to read."-Bella Rose

Overall, Before Dawn is an engrossing read that goes beyond its genre of chicklit and becomes a story of rising from the ashes and facing the consequences of one’s own choices."-Yakira Goldsberry

ABOUT BEFORE DAWN:

Feisty New Yorker, Max, falls for her mysterious coworker, Tommy, who is fourteen years her senior.

Wanting to please him and meet his beauty standards she conflictingly conceals her natural hair from him and avoids tanning so her skin looks doesn’t get too dark.

Max tightly holds onto their forbidden romance while trying to figure out who she is and her place is in a world she doesn’t always fit in.

Too caught up with her feelings she becomes oblivious to the consequences of her actions.

As tragedy strikes Max has to face her own worst enemy, herself.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

As a Haitian American writer I find it necessary to have diversity in my writing.

What makes this novel unique besides the multi-layered characters and strong storylines are the strong dialogue that captivates readers and makes this book a page turner.

In 2009, my dream came true when my first young adult novel, Reckless Perfection, was published. I received multiple positive reviews on the coming of age story.

In 2016 I published the sequel to the above novel, Chasing Ghosts which was also well received.

Other than several book signings, interviews, and book festivals I created a few YouTube videos for both books that have over thousands of views.

All of my novels are available on Amazon and my website. Besides my website dedicated to my writings I am also active on social media engaging with fellow readers, by providing blogs, giveaways and updates on my projects.
