Standing in the midst of the people she considered to be friends, Raquelle began to hyperventilate. She has no idea who to trust. She removed the glasses from her face and returned to the darkness. The price of sight was heftier than she was willing to pay, but she knew a decision had to be made and time was running out. Raquelle closed her eyes tightly and tried to imagine things as they were, back to where she lived in ignorance - blind to reality and to the world she had inadvertently become a part of. But, she knew too much had happened for her to ever go back to what was. Still, she could not help but to think if it had not been for these glasses, she would not have been in this predicament. Blind psychologist Raquelle Eckles faces epic turmoil and dilemmas when she is left a magical pair of glasses by her therapist, who turns up missing, that allow her to see. On a quest to find her therapist, Raquelle discovers her newly found gift gives her the ability to see into people's souls, traveling with them to either heaven or hell. With each travel she inadvertently shifts the balance between good and evil, leaving her to be a target for both sides wanting to harbor her gifts and use them to their advantage. In a battle to fight for her life and freedom from the glasses, she enlists the help of an archangel and a fallen angel but she soon discovers that not all gifts can be returned.

JayBee has been a dedicated reader ever since she could formulate a sentence. At the age of seven, JayBee was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes which brought JayBee to a place of insecurity, leaving her to feel lonely and misunderstood. She later found comfort in writing to herself. After discovering and reading Stephen King's, Carrie around age eight, JayBee became inspired to create her own short stories and works of poetry which earned her the highest praises from teachers and peers and awards at school. At age 11, when the first Harry Potter book was released, JayBee became engulfed with creativity, inspiring her to delve into her creativity. She was led down an impelling path to the genre of Fantasy where JayBee found her home. Writing came as naturally to JayBee as breathing and was as engaging as any human interaction. It sometimes seemed as if her best conversations seemed to be between her, her pen and her paper. Together, they created a noise distinguishable in the midst of any sound. JayBee has been honing her writing craft in the Fantasy genre creating several original story concepts including her debut, The Rose Colored Glasses. As a person of color and person living with ailments, JayBee uses her every day struggles not only as a coping mechanism, but as a voice of vindication, not only for herself, but for others who have felt their lives levied by imposing power. She uses elements such as race, gender (identity), sexual orientation & identity and disease as tools to showcase the true power we hold when faced with life's disadvantages and by embracing our true selves only then will we see the magic within us. JayBee is currently in school obtaining her degree in Communications as well as her RN while working full-time for a large healthcare and health insurance company in New Jersey. JayBee is a life-long New Jersey resident, and currently resides in Mercer County with her family.
