Description
When Your Dream Becomes a Nightmare (WDBN) is a novel about the life of Chloe Everheart, a young beautiful attorney who believes that after God, there is nothing more important than family. Her dream is to become a successful attorney, but a series of family crises jeopardize the success she's worked so hard for. First, her parents announce they're getting divorced after thirty one years of marriage, and then her teenage brother is arrested. She devises a plot to get him out of jail, but it blows up in her face and threatens her life. Her faith is tested as she faces a temptation that ruins the one thing she covets most-her reputation. She finds herself at a crossroad and the decision she makes changes her life in a way she could have never imagined. "Where do you go when you're broken, lost, and confused-when your back is against the wall-when your dream becomes a nightmare?" Born and raised in Detroit, Nakesha Woods began writing short stories at the age of twelve. Her love for words inspired her to write poetry, which she performed at coffee houses. As a young adult, she began writing and directing Christian stage plays. After years of managing a nonprofit geared towards empowering women, she was led to write her first novel. When Your Dream Becomes a Nightmare was birthed out of her desire to provide clean Christian fiction that uplifts and encourages women of all ages. Nakesha is married to the love of her life, Michael, and they share a creatively talented son.
