Description

No one remembered whose idea it was to turn the old bordello into a nightclub. Not Tex Whitmore, who ran away from the john killing his mother and ended up in Hill House. Not Leslie Saunders, whose father had squandered the family fortune and who, the other two knew, preferred his own gender. Not even Benjamin Alice. His trust fund bankrolled it. At any rate, The Gardens was all they wanted it to be. The finest club in Kansas City. Fine food, dancing, a floor show, and a chance to go up to the gaming room.

It was Kansas City Mo in the 30s. Jazz Town with gambling, dirty politics, wealth, and abject poverty. There was a depression, but you wouldn't know it inside The Gardens with all the fancy clothes and jewels. And don't forget the gossip columnists. They had a ball with Tex and Helen Gwendal, the blond model he'd met in the expensive little dress shop. But that was nothing compared to what happened when her little sister came on the scene. Ben had been looking up girl's skirts since he was five, but he called this one Angel. Her name was Asia, and she'd been playing the piano since she was four.

It's passion, secrets, intrigue, and hope. A father who's an uncle. Helen's nightmares about something she can't remember. Angel's destined for the concert stage, but in love with a the man who wants her every moment. Is it really Angel's choice to make?

Description

In 1941, nothing could stop the onset of World War II. David McKaid, attorney and heir apparent to the Diamond MiK ranch, is just realizing professional success when he is called up to fight. Forced to propose to his fiancée, Betty Lou, when he was just nine, David has never known true love. Lucinda Rollins has never been afraid of much of anything. A fiercely independent spirit, she thinks she has worn her engagement ring long enough—her fiancé disappeared the night he proposed. But when the war ends five years later, a celebration in the streets brings David and Lucinda together in a passionate kiss that will change their lives forever. Just days later, David and Lucy elope. After she endures the wrath of David's former fiancée, city girl Lucy tries to adjust to country life with a cowboy who quietly aspires to be a politician. But Lucy soon discovers that her troubles are just beginning when she is stalked by a crazy woman who wants nothing more than deadly revenge. A Lick of Sense weaves an entertaining tale of post-war Texas as Lucy trades her innocence for a new life full of adventure, danger, and most of all, love.
