  Immerse yourself in The House of Eve, a stirring tale of family, resilience, and renewal that will inspire your own journey toward purpose. When interior architect Eden “Edee” Collins returns to her childhood home on Atlanta’s Westside, she confronts the ghosts of her past—her mother’s mysterious disappearance and the silent absence of her twin sister. Armed with her design expertise and a fierce determination, Edee unearths hidden journals, deciphers haunting sketches, and enlists old friends to map out long-buried truths.
   
  As the sisters reunite and transform their decaying family house into a vibrant community arts center, listeners will feel the pulse of transformation—every renovated room, every shared story, every petal of the newly bloomed rose a testament to courage in action. With vivid storytelling, immersive scene-setting, and motivational insights on agile collaboration and ethical leadership, this audiobook offers more than a narrative: it’s a blueprint for converting personal loss into collective strength.

  Thanksgiving - our annual festival of sharing amongst family and friends. A feast of favorite foods and comradery originated to memorialize the appreciation and remembrance of two diverse groups. We know the story of that chilly day in the Fall of 1621 when the Pilgrims of the Mayflower and those indigenous came together to share a meal. But before this, there was a predecessor. Lost in the annals of history is a story of a similar meal shared amongst adventurers and escapists. A meal shared by those from the land of the Crowne and others native to a land of untouched valleys and forests. A land they called home. This event has a different viewpoint. Found within these pages are the remembrances and adventures leading to that meal as re-told generationally by the surviving few. Recorded on these pages is that event - that First Feast.

  Pendle Witches The - England...

  The Pendle Witches England 1600's 
  Book 3 of 7 Elizabeth Device 
  The books are fictionally based on the true names and part facts of seven of the accused witches involved being sentenced to death mostly, although innocent, and is as follows: 
  Elizabeth Device, a struggling widow in 1600s Lancashire, fought to protect her family after her daughter Alizon was accused of cursing a peddler. As whispers of witchcraft grew, Elizabeth's world collapsed—her mother, Old Demdike, died in prison, and her son James spoke recklessly of spirits. A family gathering at Malkin Tower was twisted into tales of a witches' sabbath by fearful neighbors. The final blow came when Elizabeth's nine-year-old daughter Jennet, likely coerced, testified against her in court, describing imaginary familiars and curses. Despite a spectral dog's offer of freedom in exchange for Jennet's life, Elizabeth refused to betray her child, even as the noose tightened around her neck. On August 20, 1612, she was hanged at Lancaster Castle, her dying words a curse not on Jennet, but on the injustice that turned daughter against mother. Her story endures as a haunting reminder of the Pendle witch trials' cruellest betrayal.  
  This is the third book in a series of seven audiobooks and it's only $3. 
  I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes plus, called Haunting Elegy, uses flute and harp to set the scene of witches living life as they could. The closing music ends in a sad way, called Melancholy same instrumental at nearly 3 minutes as the fate that befalls these innocent people awaits them. 
  The story itself runs to about 14 minutes, narrated in my own voice. 
  I do hope you and enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
