Hot shot lawyer, Wesley Thomas is on a
mission to become a partner. But first, he must come face to face with his
past, while being surrounded by unexpected twists and turns. In this
Caribbean-themed short story, will anyone come to his aid? Or will he have to
stand in his own defense?
Excerpt
I glanced up into the rearview mirror for
what felt like the twentieth time. Because there was a good chance I’d broken
every traffic law driving back to The
Pink Flamingo. I couldn’t care less. I was past angry and all I could see
was red. Blood red, and Brent
Daniel’s two-timing face. If I could’ve guaranteed that I would’ve gotten away
with it, I would have probably killed him.
The thought of that scared me, but I
shrugged it off. Then there was the fact that I couldn’t stop myself from
thinking of this one verse I came across in the Bible. It’d been while studying
for a class in world religion. It said:
“For
love is as strong as death, its jealousy as enduring as the grave. Love flashes
like fire, the brightest kind of flame.”
Yeah, I was ablaze all right.

Bio
Shan Mahogany is a poet, author and
co-founder of Ink Trails Publishing, Inc.
Her first book, Emphasis on Love: A
Compilation of Poems, written over a period of years and inspired by real
life experiences, was published in February of this year.
Although Shan feels poetry will always be
her first love, as an avid reader and lover of fictitious novels, she
courageously penned and released her first short story, In My Defense – A Bahamian Tale in September of this year. She
hopes to release at least two novels in 2016.
Shan is also slated to
release her autobiography in October entitled, Chasing Love: The Story of My Life. Readers will have a chance to
relive Shan’s tumultuous past and seemingly never-ending pursuit of love in
this raw, humorous, witty and downright dramatic retelling of her past and even
some of her present.
When Shan isn’t writing,
or sharing her poetry with audiences around her city Tampa Bay, she is teaching
and training others to be better writers at the Just Write writing workshop hosted by her company. She is also a
very active member in her church, New Life Tabernacle UPC, serving in various
ministries.
