Overview

Sara Stewart suffers three years of hell with an alcoholic and abusive father who treats her as a domestic slave and housekeeper, as well as making her work their family farm almost by herself. When he finally loses his mind and sexually assaults her she is forced to defend herself and kills him. Shortly after Sara discovers, at seventeen, that she is pregnant with her father's child. What follows is a lengthy period of time where Sara is forced to raise a child who is an ever present reminder of that horrible day. Through it all she manages to rebuild her life, turn her farm into a first class breeding operation, and make a small fortune. She even manages to reconcile with her child and her hideous past. When she meets a man named Shep all seems well. Until Shep turns out to be not very much different than her original abuser and attacker. Things come to a head all at once, out of the blue, and Sara is forced to make the most difficult decisions she has ever faced and hope that she and her son come out of the situation unharmed. Scary at times, challenging to the soul at some moments, entertaining and fun to read in places, and erotic to a T in others, Toys In The Attic is a gripping and thought provoking story!

Meet the Author

At Present I am living in Florida with my wife, Katrina, and son Jordan. I was born in upstate New York, in the tiny village of Gilbertsville, I graduated in 1983 with 25 in my class! My entire school had 267 kids, k-12 that year.making us the 13th smallest school in the state! I laugh at that, but in reality the education I received in my tiny little school left me well-versed in history, English literature, able to write and speak using perfect grammar and spelling, and able to do math well enough that even though it is my weakest subject, I was elected to teach it in high school! Go figure. English is always where my strengths have been, and continue to be.

Writing to me is a gift. I love it, I love to teach it, and I love to bring stories to others. I believe that shows through in my writing, and as the future marches on, I feel I am only just beginning to really get the hang of it. To me, at least, that’s a wonderful feeling. My development as a writer must, by necessity, never end. I hope to be pushing envelopes to the bursting point more and more as I bring stories to life.

In addition to writing, I love motivational/self-hypnosis training and am working to bring some of those ideas to the fore in places where they have traditionally not been used, but have always been needed. Self-hypnosis is a simple and powerful methodology for restructuring our thought patterns so that can’ts become cans, won’t becomes will, and desires and passions are pursued, rather than painfully ignored. Instead of letting negativity and difficulty rule our minds, we can take back control and train ourselves to rule our own minds and hearts and generate the results that we want.

    Worth the Read

    Toys in the Attic is a testament to the survival strengths of the human nature. Even though Sara endured a horrible childhood, and it seemed as if her nightmares would be never ending, David uses his story telling abilities to pull her through. A story worth reading.

    Highly Recommended

    This is a Great book to say the least. Sara's character is beyond strong, after losing her mother, she endures both mental and physical abuse from her father, but when she hits her breaking point, she kills him. But her pain isn't over yet, she learns she is now pregnant with her fathers child. Will Sara be strong enough to overcome the pain she has encountered and be able to love her child, or will she give up on life it's self?

    This is a very captivating story, it grabs you up and makes you wish you could save Sara. The abuse she goes through is painful and heart wrenching.

    Good Story

    I downloaded this on the suggestion of another author I love (Lizzy Ford). It is absolutely nothing like her books (or at least the ones I've read) which is fine. I thought the whole story was good and enjoyed it even when I was uncomfortable with some of the material. I think that was the point though, to make you uncomfortable. I don't think I would classify it as a "light" read, but it isn't too long and the story flows so I would definitely recommend it!
