life another dimension that I truly enjoy!”

Anna Christoff Alstrom is the daughter of a prominent Atlanta surgeon, the step-daughter of a

respected Atlanta art mentor, and a student at Emory University when she meets and is captivated

by the most sought after pianist in the artistic world: Andriano Parenti. Anna quits school and moves in with the brilliant and eccentric virtuoso.

  The two have a honeymoon existence for two years before a life-altering argument. Anna is pregnant, and Andriano does not want the child. He leaves in anger, and Anna moves back to her parent’s home where her daughter, Midge is born. They live there until Anna decides she and Midge will move from Atlanta to the northern coast of Florida where she hopes Andriano cannot find them.

  In their new location, Anna becomes involved in the lives of new friends, meets a love interest, and makes changes in her own life that she could never have imagined.

Maggie Murphy is an expert cook who uses unusual herbs and flowers in the creation of dishes

That she shares in her original cookbooks. She accepts the fact that she is hearing impaired but

refuses to let the fact dampen her enthusiasm for life. Doctor George Collier Thomlinson IV, a

writer of mystery novels is a paraplegic that sustained the injuries as a teenager. The two meet

at the local library in Collier, Wisconsin where they clash over the use of a book on lavender and

end up becoming involved in a dark crime. Their reclusive lives devoted to writing are changed by

the events surrounding the death of a fourteen-year-old boy. A questionable religious group

called the “Woods People” contributes to the layered mystery of abuse and secrets brought to

light by the couple.

  In the process of solving the crime, Cole and Maggie personally grow, as their involvement with

each other becomes more intimate. Cole, a stoic, demanding man who arduously pursues his

physical therapy and mystery writing to the neglect of all else. Maggie, a sensitive and kind

introvert, learns assertiveness. She also discovers that love doesn’t have to mean compliance, but

always means forgiveness.

 Cole puts the theme of the story into words when he quotes Robert McKenna author of THE

SAND PEBBLES. “Each of us is living our own personal work of art.” True beauty is within

each individual. Everyone can have dreams and achievements”.

Janelle Jamison rose to power in one of Texas’ great corporations. Her eyes, though, reflected the

sadness that comes from the loss of love and meaning in life. She searches for answers in this realistic

literary romance set squarely in the action-charged atmosphere of downtown Dallas of the eighties,

and amidst the serenity of gulf waves and peaceful skies at Padre Island.

 

This work is Marcia’s first Novel.
