I was slowly
starved and weakened to the bone, but there was a man—a Nazi—who brought me
extra food. He called himself a prisoner too, but he scared me, and I wondered

sat there for years until she asked me to find it and read her unspoken words.

I never imagined
a hand-written book could change my entire life, but it has. It opened my eyes
to a new beginning, and I learned that love is not the unsaid word my
grandmother has refused to speak. It’s an action—it’s longevity, taboo and
sometimes forbidden. Do we fight for what’s wrong, or do we spend our lives
searching for what’s right?

Author Bio
Shari J. Ryan is an International Bestselling Author of
heartbreakers and mind-benders. Shari was once told she tends to exaggerate
often and sometimes talks too much, which would make a great foundation for
fictional books. Four years later, Shari has written eleven novels that often
leave readers either in tears from laughing, or crying.
With her loud Boston girl attitude, Shari isn't shy about her love for writing
or the publishing industry. Along with writing several International
bestsellers, Shari has split her time between writing and her longstanding
passion for graphic design. In 2014, she started an indie-publishing resource
company, MadHat Books, to help fellow authors with their book cover designs, as
well as assistance in the self-publishing process.
While Shari may not find many hours to sleep, she still manages to make time
for her family. She is a devoted wife to a great guy, and a mother to two
little boys who remind her daily why she was put on this earth.
