“That” Unwanted Feeling

About the Book

Fawn Ailish Flynn, in hiding, is listening to her parents argue. Her father saying, “‘That’s’ not mine.” Fawn’s brother, Greer Jr., was yelling at their momma, “If ‘that’ had never been born, my daddy would have never left. It’s all her fault.” Then Momma married Frank, a violent, abusive man. Just because he thought Fawn was staring at him, he slapped her to the floor, yelling, “Get ‘that’ out of my sight.” Fawn went to bed, praying that God would take her, praying she wouldn’t wake up. Follow Fawn’s journey from her small hometown in North Alabama, to the West Coast, where Frank moved her, her momma, and brother—far away from the people where she felt protected and loved. Then finally back home again, home to the people she loved the most and to her pap.

About the Author

About the Author I was born in Guntersville, Alabama, currently residing in Huntsville, Alabama. I am retired from being in the human resource field. I have children and grandchildren. All of whom live close so I am blessed to see them anytime I want. I’m also an avid reader. The genre I go to most is history. I get my love of reading from my mother. She introduced me to all the places you can go in a book. This book is fiction, however loosely based on my childhood. Some of the stories are true, some are embellished, and yes, some are made up. All names, ages, and in some cases, sexes of the characters have been changed. If just one person finds strength in this book, then it will have been worth the tears entwined into each word.
