Insufferable - Standifer

Ellis advised his attorney, Brian Keith Rivers, to let Judge Marcus Cummings know he wanted a bench trial. He had willingly admitted he had tried to kill Annie out of a jealous rage, but she had survived his vicious attack. Ellis didn't want Annie or her family members to be subjected to further hurt and humiliation by having to hear and give testimony in open court. He didn't want Annie to relive that insufferable night he left her tiny limp body for dead in a pool of her own blood on the cold, dirty wet kitchen floor. Insufferable author, Rai Standifer, tells the story of three beautiful teenage girls: Alva, Bea, and Annie. Growing up in Detroit in 1939, their lives intertwine with the handsome debonair and married Creole florist, twenty-five-year-old Marlowe Dulaine. Marlowe cultivates their hearts with his err-resistible charm, silver tongue, skillful love-making and secrets. He passionately pursued them, mind, body, and soul, without either knowing about the other. First cousins Bea and Annie don't have a clue. With sweet surrender, Marlowe steals their innocence. For them, life becomes Insufferable. Although fiction, Insufferable' life-line, is based on real life stories Annie told about her teen years raised by her father, Reverend Oden, his sister, her beloved Mother Sims, with her two older brothers. Insufferable, written as a tribute to Annie, is for the renaissance woman and man, the young and hopeful millennials, and all who enjoy love and romance. To those remarkable women and men who have somehow found the strength by the love and grace of God to overcome the pain and suffering of a damaged, abusive love, stolen innocence, stolen life, Insufferable celebrates you!
