The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey to Winter Garden (Revised Edition 2020)

At the age of nine, Lily is forcefully torn from her mother's arms and sold at a Negro auction by her master, a man that Lily learns that day is her very own father. Seeking solace from such devastation, Lily secretly begins teaching herself to play her new master's piano: an instrument that she is forbidden from touching. Lily becomes an extraordinary pianist and gets away with secretly playing for fourteen years until the master's son, James, discovers her deceit. The “punishment” that James gives Lily starts her on an unprecedented journey that dramatically alters her life and influences the lives of thousands, including a man with great power. Lily's groundbreaking journey also unveils the secret altruistic love of a particular man who has been forbidden from expressing his love to her for years. But the question remains whether or not the strength of his love will be powerful enough to free Lily from the shackles of slavery and protect her dreams and her life while on her turbulent Journey to Winter Garden.WARNING!!!! Please be advised that this entire series features the following material that some readers may find disturbing, inappropriate, or triggering: Extreme profanity, racial slurs, extremely graphic violence, sexual misconduct, master/slave intimate relationships, explicit sexual content, violent mistreatment of slaves. Reader discretion is advised!!!NOTE: This book is recommended for those who are seeking a very raw, real, deeply emotional, and cerebral story. It is a very long continuous turbulent saga and is, therefore, not recommended for those who are seeking a storyline with instant gratification. It is also not recommended for those seeking escapism that only consists of joyous moments.AMAZON REVIEW 5.0 out of 5 stars: A must readReviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020This is not a frivolous story of a slave falling in love with her master, it's definitely not a case of Stockholm syndrome. It is the story of a love that began as innocently as children where color barriers and slavery haven't distorted their world yet.
