Kimberly Beverly

About

My name is Kim Beverly and I am a new author that is very excited about my first book, "If Loving Two Is Wrong..." I am a Philadelphia native and I enjoy writing, whether it be a novel, songs or poems. I have a degree in Journalism from Penn State University. My musical roots include Frankie Beverly of Maze. Frankie has definitely been large influence because he is a product of what hard work and belief in your talent can net! My parents and family have always stood by me and that is a blessing when embarking on the journey of writing, publishing and marketing your book. I draw upon my various work experiences to help bring some validity to situations that I put in my books. I have had experience in law enforcement, social  work, military, in other words, if you can name it; I've probably tried it, with many exceptions of course! I have received good reviews on the book so far, folks are even asking about a sequel. I hope I have found a home in being an author that provokes thought as well as entertains!

Description

<p><font color="#000000" face="verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"><span style="line-height:normal;">An Amazon #1 bestseller with 50+ glowing reviews. </span></font></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">Available in Kindle and print.</span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">From the very start of her faith autobiography, ‘She Does Not Fear the Snow’, author Bobbie Ann Cole reaches out across the page and endears herself to her reader. You will very quickly feel that you know her, and will be richer for the knowledge. </span></p><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;height:auto;"><div>She comes to Israel, seeking meaning and purpose for her life, following breast cancer and the demise of her long-standing marriage. There, God claims her and lays a trail of miracles that lead her from her native England to a new husband of faith in Atlantic Canada. <br />Though she is upfront about her ending, you’ll find yourself longing to learn the next step in her discovery of new love and deeper faith journey. This is one of those books you just can’t put down. Potentially, you’ll be following the twists and turns of her journey into the wee small hours. <br />‘A mysterious rug with a life-changing message, a Ruth-type love story, fascinating interactions with other believers, poetic descriptions of landscapes many native Canadians take for granted—and a message of God’s love and salvation,’ writes critic Margaret Welwood. ‘Bobbie Ann Cole’s story is a little too strange and untidy to be fiction. As a true story, it will leave you satisfied, yet wanting to know more.’ <br />‘Often times, life will take us to the end of our rope, leaving us helpless and at our wit’s end. Yet, even in such dire situations, our God is not helpless. He will bring in plentiful harvest – a harvest of renewal, hope, joy and happiness in our life,’ says Khamneithang Vaiphei. ‘She Does Not Fear the Snow is an incredible testimony that will have a profound impact on you.’ <br />If mystery, romance, women’s faith issues, the Jewish roots of Christianity, Christian living or outreach appeal to you, you will find much to enjoy.</div><div> </div></div>

Story Behind The Book

While on patrol one evening, I decided to start a story. I've always been an avid reader and wanted to see if I could create a story that would intrigue others the way I've been by other authors. So, I began writing a story based on a relationship between a man and a woman. As I wrote, the story began to formulate. I believe someone gave me an E. Lynne Harris book and it gave me the idea to add the twist of a woman discovering that she has feelings for another woman. However, I did not want to glamorize or treat the subject matter lightly. I wanted to make it a real situation that anyone could find themselves in and treat it as such. Funny thing, as I continued to write, the story just unfolded and that's why I give GOD the credit and glory for finishing this book! This book is not to encourage any type of lifestyle, but to depict a segment of reality and to do it in a way that many people might be able to relate with. Plus, there's a whole lot more, family, love, domestic violence and friendship are all a part of IF Loving Two Is Wrong...

When I first picked up the book, I didn't know how I would like it, but this book is REALLY good. Maybe because it shows how Kayla -- who never experienced female love before and was never even curious about the possibility -- actually begins to catch feelings for a woman, and how the affair blossoms from there. The story is great, and there's not a whole lot of pages on sex, but a lot about how relationships develop, fallapart, and perhaps become whole again. <br />Definitely a book I would recommend to any and everyone! <br /><br />If Loving Two is Wrong . . . grabs you by the soul from the first page and never lets go until the very end. Can't wait to read Kim Beverly's next novel so i can be captivated all over a again. A must read! --Leyton Wint, author of Prey For Love <br /><br />&quot;Romance, sex, and drama...If Loving Two Is Wrong has it all. A definite must read.&quot; - Karen E.
