The edgy streets of Chicago provide the backdrop for a riveting
tale that seamlessly blends danger and passion with the
high-powered corporate world and the seedier side of the city.
Fiercely independent and ultra-sophisticated Michelle Pierson has
made a name for herself as a highly successful entrepreneur. Still
gorgeous and in her early thirties, she has achieved it all, but at
what cost? Realizing that she is now at a crossroads in her life,
she tries to cope with lingering feelings she still has for her
sexy ex-husband, Michael Dickerson, head of the largest advertising
agency in the city. He has never been able to handle her rising
star, and Michelle soon discovers that his head is elsewhere as he
negotiates the largest deal of his life while trying to bed every
available female in his path. When Travis, the biracial son she
once abandoned, experiences an unfortunate turn of events, Michelle
is forced to take matters into her own hands to find out who or
what is actually responsible. The situation escalates as she weaves
through a tangle of betrayal and deceit. The trail leads to someone
she knows, someone consumed by revenge. Her quest to uncover the
truth takes her to the underbelly of the city, the Symbiotic
Section, where she is forced to face a worthy adversary in a final
showdown that not only threatens the very foundation of her family
but will change her life forever. Will Michelle finally be able to
secure a future filled with the promise of love, despite the
ever-present danger she has willingly placed herself in for her
son's sake? Find out in The Symbiotic Section, a story of greed,
corruption, truth, and sensuality.

Kelly Englewood was raised by her mother Christina Harrison, a news
reporter in Afghanistan who is captured by Osama bin Laden.
Christina is released from his harem and is brought back to the
United States. She discovers that she has become pregnant by Osama.
She, then, marries Leonardo Englewood, who Kelly believes to be her
father until age 13 when her mother tells her who her real father
is. She questions her mother's validity and still calls Leonardo
dad. Kelly tries earnestly to reach Osama by letters. After he
writes back to her for her to meet him at the Sacramento State
Capitol, Leonardo and Kelly become suspicious that he is planning
another terrorist attack. Leonardo and Kelly turn in the letters to
the FBI. Osama is captured while he is visiting Kelly by national
helicopter and imprisoned by the National Guard. He is executed via
President Bush's orders. This novel not only helps children deal
with the loss of one of their parents but also proves to be
beneficial in helping them realize that God loves them. Moreover,
it is full of scriptural insight on how to deal with the death of a
parent. In the novel, justice is served to the victims who died in
the September 11, 2001 attacks.
