So she must take the job she least desires: become a maid. When a new tenant, American diplomat Stephen Koczak, moves into the apartment she tends to, Anna chooses to work for him, despite opposition from her family, friends, and society in general and despite her growing admiration for him. When a young, handsome, Hungarian secret police agent named Laszlo asks to date her, she knows she must agree, even though she knows it is an arranged relationship to be used to spy on her and her American boss. With a forbidden admiration for her boss and a fake courtship with a member of the secret police, Anna's life is left tense and puzzling for months on end. So when Koczak is forced to leave the country, Anna must decide her fate as well. Find out in A Single Yellow Rose if Anna attempts to stay in the only country she's ever known-unprotected-or follows her dreams and her heart to another place?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emma is a captivating young woman but struggles daily to overcome a childhood defined by horrific abuse. Her torturer was a deranged father who stood in front of his congregation weekly, portraying himself as a Godly man, filled with righteousness and morality. He haunts her days and nights, coming to her with threats and violence even after his death many years ago. As a child, her true savior was an extroverted illusion she named Skipper, due to his manner of movement. Unable to cope with sadistic punishments, immediately he was summoned, leading her into places of solace, free of pain and suffering. Skipper was the key to safeguarding sanity when her fragmented psyche needed to escape her father. Emma's protector's appearance was always preceded by the presentation of a single yellow rose. A tragic event, witnessing her husband's murder, thrust Emma over the edge, transporting the charismatic beauty into a past life where she joined strangers to exist in the 19th century. Without memory, she made her way through controversial lifestyles, learning to love again and teaching new friends the gift of acceptance. Through her adventures, we meet Dr. Jacob Armstrong, a handsome Southern aristocrat. He is a man of integrity, clashing with neighbors and family due to his refusal to obey the law of the land and his hatred of slavery, approved by his ancestors. Effie and William, his friends and partners, learn to love Emma, tolerating her quirks and weird ideas. They wait patiently for the day they might reunite with their only child. Emma is pleasured throughout her journey with the addition of friends. Naomi, with her spaced teeth and slang language, is a rescued slave waiting for her final journey. She befriends the frisky redhead, each teaching the other valuable life lessons. Episodes of romantic foreplay with Jacob, teasing and frolicking with William, witnessing agonizing recreations of 19th century traditions and battling enemies to protect loved ones, all come together to finalize Emma's attempt to live as a whole. Gage, Jacob's half-brother, born from a slave and their shared father, is invaluable in the plantation's efforts to transport their rescues to freedom. Through scheming and luck, Emma joins the committed troop in their wildest venture to successfully rid the community of its most vindictive citizen, and deliver to her close allies their long lost daughter. Through action, suspense and violence, Emma's split psyche leads her to the one reason Skipper delivered her to this particular location. Her husband's murderer resided in Sweet Water County during his past life. Did she plot to kill him realizing all his future devilish deeds would be avoided? Does she have the fortitude to destroy the image of her own father? Existing in a two dimension world is complicated. In the end, does Emma's psychosis choose to remain the sanctity of the past, releasing her torment or return to her husband, Peyton, with a renewed hope for happiness. With her goals accomplished, as she sat and waited for her subconscious and Skipper to guide her into a final conclusion, Peyton stands by her side. She breathes in the sweet seductions of a single yellow rose. Keywords: Adventure, Romance, Historical, Witty, Tragic, Complex, Emotional, Compelling, Drama, Fantasy, Childhood, Abuse, Psychosis

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, the true story of "The Yellow Rose of Texas" is told in full, revealing a host of new insights and perspectives on one of America's most popular stories. For generations, the Yellow Rose of Texas has been one of America's most popular western myths, growing larger over time and little resembling the truth of what happened on April 21, 1836, at the battle of San Jacinto, where a new Texas Republic won its independence. The woman who has been popularly connected to the story was an ordinary but also quite remarkable free black woman from the North, Emily D. West. This work reconstructs her experience, places it in full context and explores the evolution of a most fanciful myth.
