Book Description

Tara Sellers has an identity problem… Scratching out a living as a paparazzi photographer, she’s horrified to go from a serially abandoned ward of the state doing the best she can to the illegitimate daughter of one of the richest men in the nation. Suddenly, everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie and the two men who are now her brothers look at her as if she’s out to ruin their lives. All Tara wants is a moment to breathe, take in what’s happening and figure out how not to feel like a stranger in her own skin. Dr. Perry Chase has a proximity problem... The unofficially adopted son of the Remingtons, Chase has spent more than a decade trying to repair the wounds that have torn his family apart. Now he's been unwillingly roped into helping Tara figure out her new life. But when the private lessons start turning into private moments, he’s starting to lose sight of where his loyalties lie. With the family he’d give anything to put back together or the woman who is stealing pieces of his heart every moment he’s with her? All the while, a deadly stranger is watching. Waiting for the perfect opportunity to steal everything Tara holds dear. Her friends. Her family. Her love. Soon, it won’t be about Tara’s choice to accept her life. All that will matter is how hard she’ll fight to save it.




Pieces of Me


Book Description

This book is a biography and memoir of the Parker family originating in Prince Frederick, (Calvert County) Maryland depicting the life and the legacy of where it all began. Growing up, there was never a dull moment listening to her grandparents (Richard David Parker and Annie Olivia Gross Parker) tell stories of their childhood memories including having to walk several miles to a small one room school, most people in their time only had an eighth grade education, how blacks and whites weren't treated equally and had to attend separate schools and use separate public bathrooms and water foundations. The computer and telephone was non-existent in their day which seems to be absolutely hard to function without them in present day. Familiar occupations were laborers such as tobacco workers, farmers, fisherman and having 12-18 children was the "norm" in many families. There was no television and many people's favorite pastime was visiting close family.
