Momma Knew (PB) (2017)

Deeply rooted in an upbeat, urban setting, Momma Knew tells the story of Angela, a feisty and romantic young woman on her quest to find true love. Along the way, Angela takes care in her approach to dating, careful to never let on what she is truly feeling. After all, Momma said: "Never let a man know how you really feel." Will she find what she's looking for in the end?

Momma Knew was written in remembrance of the author's own mother, who would say those same words. Although the story is fictional, Hoosier admits that she, too, had a difficult time following Momma's advice, but after surviving her own experiences, she now finds she appreciates her mother's love and guidance even more and hopes her story inspires her readers to never give up when faced with similar situations.
