(WINTER PARK, FLORIDA)

EVEN NUMBERS IS WRITTEN FOR ALL SINGLE MOTHERS ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ARE DATING.

THE STORY IS ONE THAT CAN HAPPEN TO ANY FAMILY AT ANYTIME. THERE ARE RED FLAGS THROUGHOUT THE BOOK WHICH MAY HELP A DATING SINGLE MOTHER TO RECOGNIZE SOME SIGNS THAT A PEDOPHILE MAY BE IN HER MIDST.

THE STORY IS ABOUT A DIVORCED MOTHER OF A YOUNG GIRL. SHE MEETS A MAN AND THEY FALL IN LOVE AND GET MARRIED. SHE IS UNAWARE OF HER NEW HUSBANDS AGENDA. HE HAS STRATEGICALLY AND SYSTEMATICALLY SOUGHT HER OUT BECAUSE OF HIS UNNATURAL URGE TO BE WITH HER FOUR YEAR OLD LITTLE GIRL.

OLIVIA (THE LITTLE GIRL) BECOMES PREGNANT AT THE AGE OF THIRTEEN AND THAT IS WHEN HIS SECRET COMES OUT. THE PROBLEM IS THE MOTHER IS IN DENIAL. EITHER SHE DOESN'T REALLY KNOW ABOUT HER HUSBANDS PROBLEM OR SHE IS WILLING TO SACRIFICE HER DAUGHTER TO KEEP HER MAN.

THE BOOK IS NARRATIVE AND IS A QUICK READ. BUT IT IS A POWERFUL TALE WHICH IS BASED ON A VERY TRUE AND EXTREMELY SAD STORY.
