Ashes & Lipstick Paperback – Large Print, March 18, 2026

Tasha Williams knows how to hide. Behind the smudged makeup, the tight outfits, the loud parties, she’s perfected the art of pretending—because the truth? It’s heavy. Broken homes, unspoken pain, and a heart that feels unseen have left her searching for freedom in all the wrong places.But even in the chaos of smoke-filled rooms and late-night escapades, a quiet voice refuses to be silenced. A worn Bible, a grandmother’s whispered prayers, and the glimmer of hope she thought was gone begin to tug at her heart.Ashes & Lipstick is a raw, honest journey of a young Black girl learning that worth isn’t found in validation or rebellion, but in the One who knows her fully—and loves her anyway. It’s about courage, faith, and discovering that even in brokenness, redemption is possible.For anyone who’s ever felt lost, unseen, or afraid of who they are, Tasha’s story is a reminder: God sees you. Your messiness doesn’t disqualify you from His love. Healing starts here. Read more
