Preface:
What do you get when you meet Nancy Drew, Lucille Ball, and Pat McManus combined? You get Samantha Berry, a fiery and clumsy teenager who stumbles upon mysteries and lessons of faith everywhere she goes!
Samantha, a home-schooled teen, is about to enter into a world that is shrouded by mystery, danger, and fun! As she stumbles into the middle of perplexing mysteries, gets on the bad side of some desperate villains, and blunders her way through terrifying ordeals, her wild adventures may break her if not for her warped sense of humor and strong faith in Jesus. Along the way, each experience, both big and small, strengthens her faith and resilience. Come with Sam as she tackles the world in this hilarious Christian mystery series.
About the Series:
This story is a comedy based in our modern times with echos from the past, and is meant to make you laugh, have fun, and give you Christian messages that I hope will inspire all of us to draw nearer to Jesus and to build our characters. Not all of the short stories will have a mystery, and not all will have deep Christian themes, but all will center around Samantha and her crazy world. Full-length novels have been planned (if the Lord wills) so stay tuned!

COLD (a nigerian story)
"Nevaeh you need to understand that life ain't a bed of roses. It has it's ups and downs but that doesn't mean you should blame God for that! Once in a while you lose people you love. It's not because God hates you or because he doesn't exists. It's because that's what is meant to happen." He said dropping his fanta. "God exists. And that's why you and I are still living" he finished. I frowned at him not wanting to press the issue further. He held my gaze, his eyes not leaving mine. I looked down at my plate trying to avoid his bold stare. "This sucks" I muttered. Daniel and Yimika are practically the same in this God thingy. How the heck did I get myself tangled with them?! ############## Have you ever come across someone with so much drama in their life? If you haven't...
