MARIETTA, GA - Author's Tranquility Press announces the release of Breaking the Cycles of Pain: Soul Secrets by Dr. Queen Shamala Bessie Davis Fayemi Smith, a memoir that reads like a long-held breath finally released. This is the story of what happens when silence breaks, and a woman reclaims the narrative of her own life.
Meet Doris Love, known as "Rabbit," growing up in the segregated South where the rules were clear: drink from colored fountains, enter through colored doors, and never, ever speak about what happens behind closed doors. Especially when those doors belong to Reverend Abraham Love—her father, a community pillar, and the source of her deepest trauma.
The memoir's pivotal moment comes on a rainy summer night when young Doris climbs through a kitchen window past curfew, only to be met with her father's furious command: "Go back where you come from!" That moment becomes both an expulsion and an emancipation, setting her on a path away from the "shotgun house of secrets" and toward her own salvation.
Dr. Smith writes with unflinching honesty about witnessing her sister's trauma, about the Lysol-scented memories of hidden births and burned secrets, and about the complicated love for a mother trapped in her own silence. Yet this is ultimately a story about finding language for the unspeakable. Through education, counseling, and writing, Doris learns to re-right her life, transforming from victim to survivor to healer.
Breaking the Cycles of Pain: Soul Secrets is more than a memoir—it's a lifeline. It's for anyone who has ever been told to be quiet, for anyone who has carried shame that wasn't theirs to bear, and for anyone who believes in the revolutionary act of telling the truth.
Breaking the Cycles of Pain: Soul Secrets is now available on Amazon and across major book retail platforms, brought to readers worldwide by Author’s Tranquility Press
