Welcome to the Sister 'hood....where strong women go to survive. When Tree Morganelli moves into a new neighborhood near the Federal prison in which her mobster husband's been incarcerated, she hopes that the fresh start will enable her and her three kids to put aside the ghosts of their past. But not only does their new home appear to have its own otherworldly energies, each of the single moms she meets has a skeleton (or two) hiding in her closet.
There's Hope, caught up in the divorce from hell, desperate enough to try anything to make money to keep a roof over her kids' heads. There's Mrs. Reilly, raising a handicapped son, who seems to know a lot more about everyone than she ever lets on. There's Ella and Allie, the lesbian couple trying desperately to get pregnant. And there's Bambi, the art-therapist-turned-life-coach, whose reaction to Tree's family photographs is definitely...odd. Will Tree find the strength to break free of her dysfunctional past, and uncover the truth that's hiding in plain sight?

The Phantom of the Woods
In the quiet, superstitious town of Hollow's End, whispers circulate about a boy who lives deep in the woods-a boy cursed with half the face of a skeleton, feared by all who dare to speak his name. The townspeople warn that the forest is haunted, urging everyone to stay far from its shadowy borders. Lily, a daring 19-year-old who has never believed in old tales, sneaks into the woods one night, driven by her unshakable curiosity. There, she meets Kael, a mysterious and brooding figure whose life has been marred by a curse that forced him into isolation. Kael, now 23, lives alone in a secluded cabin, hiding behind a mask that conceals the skeletal half of his face. To his surprise, Lily isn't frightened by his appearance-she sees past the curse to the man he truly is. As the two grow closer, their bond begins to challenge the very beliefs that have kept Kael isolated for years. But the curse that haunts Kael runs deeper than anyone in the town knows. As Lily delves into the mystery of what really happened to Kael, she discovers that the curse isn't just about his appearance-it's tied to a dark secret that could destroy them both. In The Phantom of the Woods, Lily and Kael must face the unknown together, unearthing the truth behind the curse and testing whether love can break through the barriers of fear and isolation. Their journey leads them into the heart of the forest's darkness, where secrets, danger, and the very essence of Kael's humanity are at stake.Concluída
