Forbidden Woman
WARNING: This book is set in South Texas, 1920s-1950s. The author has gone to great lengths to present this story in a historically accurate fashion, right down to the going rate for a woman’s time in any given year. Another result of historical accuracy, however, is that certain uncivilized words are used in this book. Perhaps we aren’t so civilized after all.
January 26, 1926, Houston, Texas. Lucille Wilkes’ husband has disappeared, leaving the sixteen-year-old woman to bring their child into this hell alone. Though penniless, Lucille cannot turn to her parents for help, and without access to a man’s pocketbook, a pious society dictates she spends her life honorably subsisting.
Virtue, however, is overrated.
Money equals freedom, but the cost of a gold coin may be more than Lucille thinks, at least when it comes to her daughter, Rosemary. On the other hand, Lucille didn’t want the child in the first place. Or did she dare think such a thing?
As it turns out, right just might be wrong. $2.99 on Kindle.

A Cobra’s Bite Doesn’t Hurt
Then Like The Blind Man: ORBIE’S STORY
While fiction about the 1950s Civil Rights era is far from rare, few capture the period and struggles from the perspective of a white child.
Then Like The Blind Man: ORBIE’S STORY is an electrifying porthole to the South of the ‘50s, where, though inane prejudice may have dominated, kindness and justice also had a place. Orbie’s sharecropping grandparents, by defying convention with unnerving grace, become founts of colloquial wisdom whose appeal is impossible to resist, and the Orbie they nurture—the best version of a boy who may otherwise have been lost—is someone the reader comes to love.

The Paths They Walked
Graduating from High School two friends, one male and one female, face life in the late 1960s. While Susan rushes forward moving to New York City, embracing the world eagerly, Dan, indecisive and unsure of himself, stays in their hometown where he sullenly muddles his way forward with no plan. The paths they head down outwardly appear completely divergent, but in reality, there is a strangely vague parallel to them. The difference is within themselves and how they react to the events in their lives. The two separately make their ways through that socially turbulent time, never noticing how each decision they make affects the courses that their lives take in an era of Vietnam, “sex, drugs, rock and roll”’ and “tune in, turn on, drop out”. Neither one seems to be able to recognize the opportunities to change their direction when they see them as they head towards the climactic moments of their lives. $0.99 on Kindle.
