The time is 1989. The place is San Francisco, where painful stories of gentrification, eviction and relocation still echo within its limits. Clinging desperately to the Victorian home she inherited, she is confronted by a stranger that brings her a life filled with revenge, corruption, and murder. In an unparalleled twist of fate, she discovers that her predicament may have roots buried much closer to home.<\/p>\n<p>Blis\u2019 world starts to crumble as she fights the Bureau to save the home she adores; fights the temptation of an incorrigible former lover; and fights the peril threatening the tender passion of a new and budding romance. QUIVER OF THE PURE HEART will appeal to readers that appreciate a social setting that illuminates the universal themes of desire, forgiveness, revenge, and letting go.<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco is one of the loves of Blis\u2019 life, and like any love relationship, it is where her emotions will be tested, where romance will live and die, and where people are not always as they seem. Burnita Bluitt offers a spirited and passionate story of love and corruption in the city by the bay.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/21902388-quiver-of-the-pure-heart?ac=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Put Quiver of the Pure Heart on your TBR list <\/a> | Buy on <a href=\"http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/bookstpubli02-20\/detail\/1618639730\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kJeMNXcyUn8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><center><\/center><\/center><\/p>\n<h3>About the Author:<\/h3>\n<p><a style=\"clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.promotionalbooktours.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Burz1-237x300.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-6165\" src=\"http:\/\/www.promotionalbooktours.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Burz1-237x300.jpg\" alt=\"Burz1-237x300\" width=\"237\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>Born in Mississippi, but raised in San Francisco.
