Being able to connect with and hear from the spiritual world as a young child helped Laurie to endure an abusive childhood, but even this special connection cannot protect her from the pain of her husband leaving her for her stepmother. Left financially and emotionally devastated, Laurie joins the military in order to provide for her young son and begins an incredible journey though the challenges of being a single parent, several relationships and another marriage, a sexual addiction, and military career in a largely male-dominated field. Through it all, Laurie continues to receive messages from her Spirit Guide, which she sometimes embraces and other times turns away from at her own peril. In this second book of her memoirs that follow her life from age 20 to 40, Laurie shares the twists and turns of her complicated life and the spiritual journey that serves as the framework for her path. Told in a no-holds-barred fashion with humor, grace, and insight, her story is one that will help others to re-examine their own lives as part of a greater blueprint and an evolution of their soul.

-Did we design our physical life with our Creator before we arrived? -Is the physical experience designed as a school of learning to evolve our souls? -Do we have help from the spiritual side as we make our journey? -Does free will interfere with the blueprint we designed? -How do other souls impact our journey? -Is the balance of being connected to both sides important? -Are we all Spiritual Warriors in a battle to align the Physical Self with the Spiritual Self? Through this memoir, Subtle Whispers: To an Innocent Child chronicles the childhood and adolescence of a girl born into a dysfunctional existence - divorce, abandonment, physical and psychological abuse, and despair. While young Laurie navigates a lonely and confusing physical journey, her soul learns to connect to the spiritual side, giving her hope and guidance for survival.

Whispers from the Dark Side, "a devilish tale of seduction and grace," captures chilling glimpses of unseen beings tempting a young man and woman to embrace evil plans. Like C. S. Lewis's Screwtape, with lively dialogue it reveals subtle and powerful dynamics driving our turbulent culture.

In the shadowed alleyways of London, where the bustling city streets echo with the symphony of life, we encounter the resilient spirit of Oliver Hartley. With tousled chestnut hair and eyes that mirrored the depths of his soul, Oliver was a twelve-year-old boy who bore the weight of abandonment on his slender shoulders. Left to fend for himself by parents whose reasons remained a mystery, he wandered through the labyrinthine streets, a lost soul seeking refuge in a world that had turned its back on him. As the harsh winds of loneliness swept through the urban canyons, Oliver's gaze settled on the flickering lights of a weathered church nestled amid the city's chaos. It was here, in the heart of London, that his journey would take an unforeseen turn—a journey marked by the ebb and flow of faith, trust, and the pursuit of something greater than himself.
