PublishAmerica Presents Bruised Kisses by Monique M. McDowell
Bruised Kisses is the author's proof of a life lived with courage, reflection and evolving wisdom. With engaging command and candid eloquence she empathizes with the lurking fears and whispered worries of the young, destitute and aspiring. Ms. McDowell invites the reader to revisit their own life and write an epilogue to their greatest pain, one that affirms insistently ‘Yes, even misery has meaning.' -Safiya Songhai Miss Black United States 2009/Emmy Award Winning Producer/Writer/Actress
