SERENADE

Arabesque

June 1994


Alexandra Morrow has struggled long and hard to make it as a singer in the world of jazz. But she has never forgotten Parker Harrison, the legendary musician who stole her innocence and her heart as a young girl. Now, 10 years later, she's on the verge of stardom when Parker returns. Alexandra must battle rekindled feelings, heartache, and a secret that threatens her career.

Family Affairs/Signet Books 1998:

One of my ideas in writing this story was to create a lead (David) who is an ex convict, and show how it’s possible to turn your life around in heroic ways.  Gayla, who’s known David most of her life, isn’t convinced he’s capable.  A second idea I wanted to explore was the connection between two families; one black (Gayla’s mother works for...) the other, white.  The ways in which they are different, but the many ways in which they are the same and entwined.
