Land Sister Sky
When Merritt Hamilton, the daughter of a rigid and sickly, small-town southern gentlewoman, meets mystical Ames Davis, the daughter of their new, sage-like housekeeper, the two set off on a lifelong journey of self-discovery, tragedy, loss, spiritual stirring and shared purpose.
Â
From the loamy Mississippi Delta to the astounding beauty of the San Gabriel Mountains of California -- Merritt and Ames, each holding a key to the other’s fullness, are bound together, their hearts intertwining like the roots of neighboring trees. But they will have to break conventions, understand forgiveness, and ultimately, connect to their deepest humanness as well as their eternal spirits in order to survive the tests of the heroine’s journey. Must they yield to the mission that has chosen them? Can the heart soar once it’s broken?Â
Â
Land, Sister, Sky chronicles the long and complicated friendship between Merritt and Ames as they struggle to discover who they truly are and why they’ve been indelibly connected.

Review
"Dear human is your new best friend and answered prayer. Full to the brim with wisdom. It is exquisitely written, making reading this book such a beautiful experience. Kay's open, honest and boundless heart shines through every page. Her personal memoirs are filled with insight, understanding and relief. This book touches upon all of the things that truly matter, including how to drench your life with compassion, overcome fears and listen to your heart. This book has a little something sweet for everyone."Â --S. Holehouse

Divorce: a love story
Kay Eck’s moving and melodic memoir brings us along on her map-less journey to consciously uncouple from her husband of nearly 30 years. Her sometimes harrowing, sometimes humorous path is a rich and bumpy ride through self-discovery, unplanned healing and luminous growth. Â
Â
Beautifully written and honestly portrayed, Divorce: a love story cracks marriage wide open revealing the hidden light radiating from within every partnership, especially the one we have with our Self. Â

Review
"I just finished this beautiful book...or poem...there's not really a name that I know of for what it is. More than a story about conscious uncoupling, it is a window into the heart of a mystic that also happens to illumine a "(r)evolutionary antidote to the mass hypnosis that would have us sleep-walking through the unconscious habit of trying to "ex" love out of our hearts. I loved it."  -- T.
