What do readers say about Award Winning Book Hazel Eyes?

on March 4, 2016
Format: Paperback
Reading Author Maritza Martinez Mejia’s Hazel Eyes is somewhat
of a mesmerizing memoir. It’s never very easy to write about one’s life,
but the author captures the essence of her life in a way that’s
unquestionably an outstanding and unbelievable journey.
You’ll discover the young life of the author, her struggles and
challenges living in Colombia, growing up and being subjected
to worldly influences whereby she began to rebel.
The author reveals how God touched her and she underwent
a transformation not only in life but her views and behavior.
The memoir will leave you in awe, fill you with hope,
encourage you to renew your faith, cherish life,
believe in the power of the Lord, and most of all bestow the acts of kindness
and love upon all mankind.
