Little Girl, Lost: Her Unfortunate Blessing

Publisher Marketing: In book one of this trilogy, life lessons come hard and fast for Renita Lewis, a young girl who walks in the path of her own self destruction. Drugs, alcohol, police and ambulance crews are commonplace in her home life. But when Renita finds herself in serious trouble, she directs her pain inward attempting suicide and abortion. Unsuccessful in either, now she's faced with raising a child she knows she'll never love. How will she deal with this unfortunate blessing? Randy Phillips has a dilemma. He's in love with his best friend Renita, and has been for years, almost since the day they met. Despite the fact that he is white and she is black, despite the fact that she is younger than he is, despite the fact that Renita's family name seems to be synonymous with trouble. So it comes as no surprise that Randy would feel guilty when he attends a party with her and a situation arises that quickly spins out of anyone's control. Several months later as Renita lay semi-conscious in a psychiatric hospital bed, Randy stuns the room full of bystanders as he states that he is the father of the baby she'd just tried to abort. Is Randy Phillips prepared for the consequences of this Unfortunate Blessing? Contributor Bio:  Elliott, Lainey Lainey Elliott was born and raised on the Eastern Shore.
