About the Book

Phoenix Jean-Baptiste is a thirty-three-year-old Haitian-American psychologist. In spite of her ability to assist others with their life struggles, she is unable to help herself through crippling low self-esteem and depression. Phoenix's misery stems from the belief that she is too ugly to ever be loved. She is, after all, sixty pounds overweight, suffering from adult acne, and a poor dresser. As far as she is concerned, her misshapen body, damaged dark skin, and awkwardness are the reason her life is a mess. Why else would her fiancé cheat on her two months before their wedding, telling her that he only proposed because she financially supported him for two years? After nearly committing suicide, Phoenix desperately cries out to God. God hears Phoenix's cry and sends her the help she requests in the form of Paulo Elias. Paulo is a kind, handsome, Brazilian man, who talks about God like He's an old friend. Paulo lives for Christ, is an anointed prayer warrior, who serves on his church's Intercessory Prayer Ministry. God lays it on Paulo's heart to begin praying for Phoenix long before they officially meet. After meeting Phoenix, Paulo ministers to Phoenix about salvation through Jesus Christ, while offering kindness. He also offers to use his skills as a certified personal trainer to help Phoenix lose weight. All Phoenix has ever wanted was to become beautiful so she could find love. While Phoenix undergoes a makeover of the body, Paulo tries to minister to her about receiving a makeover of the soul. Paulo, in the course of being used by God to help Phoenix, falls in love with her. Problem is, as Phoenix becomes more beautiful on the outside, she becomes bitter, arrogant, and self-absorbed on the inside. She wants revenge against her ex-fiancé, Cedric. It's all Phoenix can think about. Not only does Phoenix risk losing her blessings due to her bitter schemes, but she doesn't understand that there is a spiritual battle going on between for her very soul. Can Phoenix let go of the past in order to move ahead with Paulo? Can Paulo help Phoenix receive the true makeover God has for her through Jesus Christ? Will God win this spiritual battle and bring forth His will in the lives of Paulo and Phoenix?

About the Author :
Vacirca V. Vaughn is a Clinical Social Worker who has worked in the mental health/substance abuse field for over ten years, providing counseling and therapy services to those in crisis. It was the way she paid the bills as she pursued her dream of being a fiction writer, poet, and spoken word artist. Currently, she has four Christian Fiction works published on Amazon.com entitled, AYITI, AYITI: CONTINUED, JUDE, & THE MAKEOVER. Years ago, she published two collections of poetry entitled IF MY SOUL COULD TALK and ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN (look them up on Amazon!). Of course these were published years ago, before she was a Christian. Her next works JUDE: CONTINUED are expected to have a release in June, 2015. Now, Vacirca aspires to work in full time writing ministry through various Christian-based genres, including fiction, poetry, drama, and film. She is developing an arts and media ministry called Esther 31 Ministries, through which the Gospel of Jesus Christ can be ministered through the entertainment and media industries. Some of her works are a bit "out there," while others are more conservative. Vacirca's prayer is that each work will touch someone as God intends. She also serves on her church's intercessory prayer ministry.
