Author Bio
Today, I am
married and have four children. Their names are Dluce, Marin, Carlos, and
Isabella. I work as Branch Manager at a financial institution. I couldn't be
happier with what I have accomplished so far.
My next step is to
somehow help those affected by domestic violence. What hurts the most, is when
children are in the middle of it. It is my belief that no one should have to
feel unsafe, living life on the edge, wondering when they are going to get
hurt. Sleeping with one eye open is the worst feeling in the world. Fear that
catches in your throat paralyzes your whole body. Living life like that hurts
and it comes with consequences. I know.

Book Excerpt
She
hugged her rib where her father had kicked her. Reality slammed against her
face. She suddenly felt emotionally worn down and fragile, like a snowflake on
the verge of being broken down and ceasing to exist. For some reason, she felt
like she had to be honest. She didn’t want to keep anything from Nickolaus.
And, if he didn’t like it or didn’t understand, then it wasn’t meant to be.
She
looked up into Nickolaus’s eyes and saw nothing but understanding and
sincerity. She felt compelled to tell him everything. “It’s my father…” she
started.
And
she told Nickolaus everything—from the way she worked like a dog to her abusive
father to how they constantly moved. When she was finished, she was almost
crying with relief that she had someone to share all her pain with. Someone
other than Dulce to lean on. She felt as if a weight had been lifted off her
chest. She didn’t realize that keeping everything in had been weighing her
down.
“I
do not know what to say,” said Nickolaus, a look of shock on his face. “But how
could this happen to you?”
Before
Brisnay knew it, Nickolaus had scooted closer to her, pulled her toward him,
and tightly hugged her. She felt the tears swelling in her eyes. She honestly
couldn’t remember the last time someone had hugged her. She tried to swallow
back the tears, but she couldn’t stop. She felt her whole body relax, and a sob
choked out, even as she tried to stop herself from crying. The tears were from
years and years of suffering and keeping this to herself.
