About the Book


HOW HARD IS IT TO FORGIVE?After finding the biological mother who abandoned her as a baby, learning the identity of her birth father and her biological brother, Dupree is left distraught and betrayed. Like a volcano about to erupt, she vows to have nothing to do with her newly discovered family--so help her God! However, if Dupree's mother, Tiny, has anything to say about it, Dupree won't be able to keep that vow. 

How does a former teenaged runaway become a wealthy, sophisticated business executive? Tiny's quest for happiness and independence in Kingston, Jamaica, has taken her on a life-altering journey through hell. After a vicious attack and a serious sickness that leaves her fighting for her life in the hospital, Tiny prays for death . . . but then God speaks. Will she listen to His voice? What exactly is He saying?


Read An ExcerptMoments later, her eyes popped opened and widened in terror at the faces looming above her. A scream started in her throat but was muffled by the huge hand covering her mouth. She tried to move her arms, but they were pinned to her side. Desperately, she tried to kick her legs, but they wouldn’t move. She attempted to twist her body but could barely move. Tiny was pinned down to the ground.Helpless, the tears leaked down the side of her eyes, wetting her neck before disappearing in the grass behind her body.“Well, well, well. What do we have here?” the menacing voice boomed in Tiny’s ear. “I think Santa is a little early this year.” A chorus of harsh laughter rang out into the night. A cold chill ran down Tiny’s spine.Visibly shuddering, her panic intensified, again, Tiny tried to move her body, but to no avail.“Relax!” the command echoed in her ear. “You give us a hard time, and I’ll put a bullet in your skull. Understand?”But Tiny writhed even more. Twisting this way, turning that way, she felt her body loosen a little against the human restraints. A burst of energy washed over her, and she kicked out her right leg, making contact with something soft. Angry expletives reverberated in the air.Baff! A hard fist connected with Tiny’s left eye, snapping her head further back into the grass. Pain exploded in her head as she thrashed wildly in the grass. Arms frantically tried to hold her. But she bit into the hand over her mouth and screamed in terror.Tiny was slapped repeatedly. Her face was on fire. Undeterred, like a wildcat, she clawed and yelled. “Help! Help! Somebody, help me!”Pre-Order your copy on AmazonPre-Order on Barnes and NobleTheresa would love to hear from her readers. You may contact her at:

About Keith Taylor II Minister Keith Taylor II is a native of Indianapolis, Indiana and is currently serving as the Youth Pastor at a local church. He received an Associates Degree in Leadership and Ministry from Crossroads Bible College and is currently pursuing a Bachelor's of Arts in Leadership and Ministry. Minister Keith Taylor II started preaching at the age of four and was known as "The Little Preacher Boy". At this young age, he was found to be a young man with a heart after God, preaching and praying for people all over the city of Indianapolis wherever he could. At a young age he was giving the world a preview of what was to come.  God has kept a hand on his life from his youth and gifted him with wisdom, insight and a heart for people. He became a Youth Pastor at the age of 23. The youth ministry has grown spiritually and numerically since he took it over in 2012. He also mentors at risk youth in his free time. Some of the places God has allowed Keith to minister are juvenile detention centers, prisons, churches, and conferences. Minister Taylor published his first book called, "Rejected, But Still Prevailing", and is working on many more encouraging books. Additionally, he is a worshiper, teacher, husband, and world changer. Minister Keith is married to his high school sweetheart, Jasmine Taylor. Keith has been known to some as, "Mr. Inspiration", and that is one “mantra" that he lives by.  About The Book Rejected but Still Prevailing teaches about rejection and how to overcome it. It provokes the reader in ways you never thought possible while providing some insight on where rejection starts and how to handle rejection from those close to you. It includes biblical viewpoints to show rejection from a spiritual side. You will learn, grow and be able to deal with rejection as your perception about dealing with rejection will be changed.

Q & A with Keith Taylor II

Michelle: Tell us about yourself?Keith: I am a Husband, Pastor, Thinker, Author, Teacher, Mentor, Business Man and World Changer. My mission is simple- Teach, Motivate, and Inspire Generations through God’s word.
Michelle: Why did you feel you had to write this particular book?Keith: I felt like I didn’t see many books that spoke on this topic that were easy to read for my generation. We don’t like thick books, were the technology generation we want to get what we need and move on.  Also I had dealt with being rejected so many times and still been able to overcome I wanted to be able to help someone else do the same.
The book is about rejection, why do you feel qualified to write on this subject?Keith: I feel what qualifies me most to write on this subject is my experience and the wisdom and knowledge I’ve gained through studying other people’s experiences with rejection as well. I also feel that God has given me a certain level of divine revelation is regards to being rejected but still being able to prevail no matter what.
Michelle: Who did you write, Rejected But STILL Prevailing,” for?Keith: I wrote it for the 16-40 year olds in high school or College, in the workforce, Christians and people who don’t know Christ. Moms and Dads, Ministers, ushers, pimps, lawyers, doctors, Cops, Drug Dealers, Drug Users, in a nut shell ANYONE who has dealt with rejection and it has left them stuck.
Michelle: What age group(s) do you believe deals with rejection the most?Keith: The age groups I feel that deal with rejection the most are 16-25 yrs old are a lot of times still trying to figure things out just coming into adulthood and beginning to be established.
Michelle: How important was it to include David from the Book of 1 Samuel?Keith: To me it was vital to the making of the book, David is a prominent figure in Christianity and the Bible, Who is highly regarded as the greatest King to ever live and a man after God’s own heart. To understand that rejection can happen at any level in life, or inspire of your position or closeness to God and to view the way he handled rejection. Michelle: Which chapter was the hardest to write?Keith: The first chapter was the hardest to write, it’s the chapter that I am the most transparent regarding my personal life.
Michelle: What is the main message you want readers to take from your book?Keith: The main tool in overcoming rejection is building and sustaining a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, staying rooted and grounded in God’s word and understanding that you will be rejected but the way you handle that rejection makes all the difference.
Michelle: What is next for Keith Taylor II?Keith: I will be at “The Brics” on Sept 20th, which is in Broad Ripple (Indianapolis) and I am starting my virtual book tour this month. I am also working on a new book but can’t give any details at this time as well as finalizing my website which will be available soon.

Blog Tour: Born at Dawn at Nigeria Lockley

Book Title: Born at DawnGenre: Christian FictionPaperback: 288 pagesPublisher: Urban Books ISBN-10: 1601626754ISBN-13: 978-1601626752Release Date: September 30, 2014
Back in May, Michelle’s Book Stop first introduced Born at Dawn and author, Nigeria Lockley to readers. With the release of Born at Dawn rapidly approaching (September 30, 2014), Nigeria is stopping by again to share some fun facts about herself and Born at Dawn. From inception to publication seven years have passed, so today Nigeria will be sharing seven fun facts about herself, her work, and an excerpt from Born at Dawn. Seven Fun Facts about Nigeria Lockley1. When writing at night I like to wear bold shades of lipstick (I don’t know why).2. The first draft of Born at Dawn was written by hand. 3. I used to write poetry exclusively. 4. I don’t use outlines to write.5. Before going natural I used to wear wigs. 6. I was once an extra on MTV Jams when Bill Bellamy was the host7. Before heading to the Faith and Fiction Retreat in 2012 to pitch Born at Dawn someone stole the memory card containing the first four chapters of the book and I had to start all over again a month before the retreat. But God!!          Excerpt from Born at Dawn

The transition from sinner to saint wasn’t easy for Cynthia. The moment she walked in the door from her first trip to Mount Carmel, the devil was waiting to tempt her.             “Where you been all day?” Marvin huffed at her while she helped the boys out of their jackets.            “We went to church today, Daddy.” At nine years old, James was the official family reporter. He was still struggling with learning the difference between what should be uttered and what should not be. “You should have come with us. A friend of yours was there.”             Twelve-year-old Keith slapped James in the back of his head, trying to demonstrate his superiority. “He wasn’t there. He’s the pastor.”            “The pastor?” Marvin asked with his eyebrows scrunched together. “Did you take the kids to that joke of a church, Mount…?” Marvin snapped his fingers. “Mount…”            “Mount Carmel Community Church. It’s not a joke. It’s a lovely place, Marv,” Cynthia said resolutely. “Are you hungry?” She quickly tried to stave off the inevitable—Marvin’s monologue on the legitimacy of Pastor David’s ministry.             According to Marvin, Pastor David could not be trusted since he’d abandoned his street life and friendship with Marvin to pursue the ministry. Every time they walked past Mount Carmel or anyone mentioned it, Marvin had to trudge through the past.            “Of course I’m hungry. You left me here alone to fend for myself, and you know I can’t go on without two things.” Marvin wrapped his hands around her dime-sized waist, pulled her in close to his body and stared in her eyes. “I can’t go on without your loving.” He brushed back a few loose strands of Cynthia’s burgundy hair and planted a wet kiss on her lips. “And I certainly can’t make it without your cooking, girl.”            Cynthia could see through the act. She knew Marvin was trying to smooth whatever feathers his behavior had wrinkled the previous day, and it wasn’t working. It took every atom of Cynthia’s fragile being to cook Marvin’s food without spitting in it. Cynthia called it a small victory every time she was able to inflict some pain on Marvin unbeknownst to him, like the time she put ex-lax in his cupcakes.              Small victories were no longer satisfying. She wanted more. Peace or blood. Cynthia envisioned Marvin’s chiseled face bubbling upon contact with the olive oil that was now sizzling in the pan. “Peace, peace, think about peace. You just left church,” she chided under her breath.That kept her from acting on her impulses and the voices of vengeance echoing in her head.

Welcome Esther Renee' Daniels Wright!

About The AuthorBestselling Author | Speaker | Empowerment Coach | MinisterEsther Renee' Daniels Wright, is a native of Beaumont, Texas and resides in Houston, Texas. An Associate minister at The Fountain of Praise, under the leadership of Senior Pastor Remus Wright and Co-Pastor Mia Wright.The founder of Titus Works, Ministries, a vision I believe was downloaded specifically to me from God. This ministry has been created to spread the word freely to ages 25 and up. Titus based on the Word of God in Titus chapter 2, teaches us that the old shall be there to guide the young into a better life with Christ. This ministry strives to do this in a unique way. Through telephone conferences with powerful speakers and topics is keeping it real with people and God.I have been blessed to counsel, motivate, inspire and encourage others that they too can be a living testimony. With all of that said the most important thing she would like for you to know about her, is she loves God with all of her heart and wants nothing more than for God to be pleased with everything she does.

Esther, Tell us about your book? Have you been harboring unforgiveness, bitterness, and feelings of self-defeat? Is the guilt of your past hindering your plans for the future? Are you ready to overcome your hidden issues and walk victoriously and unashamed? This inspirational and effective book is a great resource for anyone ready to take their relationship with God to the next level. Through God’s Word. This book offers encouragement and hope for healing and freedom. This heartfelt work offers steps to assist in the journey through love and compassion.  
How did you come up with idea for this book? I was given this assignment to write a book and I thought to myself this has to be me saying this, surely God would not be telling me to write a book.  Plus what would I have to write about anyway, I am not an expert on anything, what could I possibly write that would inspire or help another human being.  So, I did what most people do, I disregarded the thought of this potential book.  But like any assignment that God gives me to do, it would not leave my spirit, so I began to pray about it.  Seeking God’s opinion on this book, I remember praying, “okay God, if this is truly what you want me to do, then would you at least give me the subject matter of this book?”  Not long after that it was revealed to me what God wanted to say to you through this book What was the most difficult aspect of writing this book? In order to write this book it meant writing about some things in my life, that were unpleasant. This of course was something I didn't want to do. The thought of knowing that people would have all my stuff in their hands was a sincere challenge. But God reminded me that not only does he want to free you but he wants to free me as well.   Why do you write? I write now because I am so clear of the fact that God wants us to be healed in every area of our lives, He wants us to know what he said through David in Psalm 147 is real, “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”  He wants to bless us with the freedom to experience the joy, peace and happiness that we so desperately desire to experience. What valuable lessons do you want readers to learn from your book? I would love for the reader to walk away with realizing the dirt under their rug needs to be exposed and swept clean in order that those experiences are no longer an embarrassment or hindrance to their progression, but rather a testimony of God’s faithfulness in my life. Allowing God’s faithfulness to manifest an experience of true freedom by facing fears, exposing them, taking action to overcome them and learn from them.  So, get ready to walk into your freedom. Who are your favorite authors? I really enjoy reading Iyanla Vanzant What book(s) are you reading now?  Lost and Found: Finding Hope in the Detours of Life by Sarah Jakes What book(s) have most influenced your life? The Purposed Driven Life, by Rick Warren was one of the first books I read when I got sober and it gave me the inspiration to find a path to not only just be sober, but to be sober with a purpose!
If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?I would choose Iyanla Vanzant, being able to help others at a greater level with changing the behavior and thought process of others is an amazing gift. Not just a gift to have the ability to assist someone in that area, but a gift to the individual who is able to receive it.
Any advice to give to aspiring writers?
Listen to your inner voice allowing God to lead you in your writing, along with making a commitment to your writing. That book inside of you is a gift to those who God has waiting for you to complete it. Let Him use you!

In my life I have been through a lot of hard situations especially in relationships. In my book, I tell about some of those things, I remember being a woman that didn’t know who she was, didn’t think I was valuable or worth much at all, so I settled for what came my way.

What was the most difficult aspect of writing this book?As I mentioned earlier, I have been through some rough bumps in life and as I was writing this book, my mind did go back to my past, the hurt and pain that I endured all because I saw myself way differently than God saw me, so I had some moments that I pondered on and said wow! Look at all you went through!!!! But as I continued to write I know now that all that I went through was to help some women out there that was just like me. So I will never get mad at anyone in my past or feel sorry for myself, im a new woman now and what I have been through has helped me to be stronger and more confident because during those times, I built a strong relationship with God. The past is over and I’m on an empowering mission to help fellow sisters come forth. No more crying and feeling sorry for myself, I’m a beautiful and I now help women to find their shine.
Why do you write? I love putting my thoughts on paper, as I write, I just go on and on. God speaks and I write, it’s just so peaceful. As I was writing my book, I was set at a page a day, but as I set down in front of my computer, it just flowed so I went with it. I have so much to say and writing it all out helps me and it helps others. It’s my way of getting it all out and reloading more in. The more I write the more I get!

I can think on good things and have the victory in every area of my life!  If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?Joyce Myer, I can relate to her in so many ways, all her book were written in such a way that its well received and every time I read a book she has written I get something great out of it. She’s my mentor!
Any advice to give to aspiring writers?The advice I would give to aspiring writers is to never give up, always press forward, just stay in constant fellowship with God and he will feed you everything you are to say as you write. As he speak, you write. Never give up! Never give up! Never give up on your dream of becoming a writer.
