About The Author

Long before she began writing about the deeper, often darker side of love and loss, Anjuelle Floyd was a wife and a mother of three. She was also a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, which immediately explains Floyd’s unique ability to elucidate the inner workings of one’s psyche in an almost poetic manner.

Seasons in Purdah

Sahel Ohin may be blind, but that doesn’t stop her innate ability to see into the souls of those around her. A 35 year-old psychologist, Sahel finds herself caught in the middle of a heated feud between two life-long friends—Carl Pierson, Sahel’s neurosurgeon, and Titus Denning, a cardiac surgeon and Sahel’s husband.

Sahel is contemplating a surgical procedure that could potentially restore her sight, but also carries the risk of death. It is this risk that drives Titus to plead with Sahel to forgo the procedure and allow him to care for her instead. Carl, however, doesn’t trust Titus’s motivation and fears that Sahel’s blindness is allowing her to remain captive to Titus’s need for control.

Torn between her longing to see and a fear of the unknown, Sahel finds herself faced with a game-changing question when an intriguing strangers asks, “Do you believe…in life after death?”

It’s the actions and events that follow that lead Sahel to realize it’s not in the purpose of our actions, but in the integrity of our intent that we find grace that leads us to redemption.

Keeper of Secrets:

Translations of an Incident

When an attempted murder transforms an enclave of wealthy African-Americans in the Bay Area, all eight members share their perspectives.

In this series of eight short stories, the characters reveal not only the underlying feelings that are preventing them from overcoming this violent event, but how they each are somehow connected to each other in an intricately woven manner.

The House

After 30 years of marriage and four children, Anna finds herself in a lengthy divorce with her globe-trotting, perpetually unfaithful husband. 

But before the process comes to an end, Anna learns that her husband has been diagnosed with cancer and has less than a year to live. 

With that news, Anna shocks even herself when she brings him back into their home to live out the rest of his days. 

In that process, Anna is not only forced to deal with the brokenness of her marriage, but the damaging effects her unfortunate union has had on her now-grown children.

“The elegant, super-rich, super-accomplished African-Americans in Keeper of Secrets are as susceptible as anyone to conflicting passions, ones that may not be reconcilable in this world…Floyd pulls the reader into their lives without mercy.”

Clive Matson Author of Let the Crazy Child Write! and First Ten Songs

“Anjuelle Floyd has a unique voice. At times, she confronts adversity, at others, embraces it. Her character studies astutely, but lovingly, reveal the inner workings of the human heart. Exposing them, she invites us to accept them for what they are.”

Amazon.com

“The stories in Keeper of Secrets…Translations of an Incident, are about what goes unspoken in relationships as much as they are about communication. The author, Anjuelle Floyd, plays with delightful phrasing, spinning the reader into an enigmatic world of guarded implication, daring the reader to discover the deeper meaning veiled in the words.”

Goodreads.com

“Floyd has woven together an intricate novel of the complexities of life in an average family and the healing process that is brought on by love and forgiveness. I would recommend The House to all readers and think this would be an intriguing book discussion pick.”
