Book Description
A woman’s mysterious past leads her from Texas to Europe in this “spellbinding, deliciously sensuous read” from the award-winning author (Rendezvous). Orphaned as a child, Pandora Sherwood grows to be wild, fierce, and independent—the scandal of Galveston society. Her rebellious spirit, however, appeals to one man: Ward Gabriel, a self-made adventurer who vows to have her as his own. But the visions that haunt Pandora’s dreams compel her to seek out the answers to the questions of her restless soul. She flees to Europe and gains fame through her art, but along her journey of self-discovery her heart remains in Galveston with Ward. Yearning to return to the man she loves, Pandora must unveil the mystery of her dreams and the secret that tore her from her home—and from Ward’s embrace. “One of the finest and most gifted writers. A master storyteller!” —Romantic Times

Book Description
June 1928. Houston, Texas is poised to host the National Democratic Convention when a lynching occurs six days prior to the political conclave’s opening. Fort Worth Star Telegram reporter Phillis Flanagan is on the scene and witnesses Houston’s attempts to rid itself of the shame as 25,000 visitors arrive for their four-day visit. Will Rogers, H. L. Mencken, Damon Runyan, Louella Parsons, and Will Durant are among the 500 journalists who have plenty to say about national politics and Houston residents, as well as the city’s intolerable weather. During the Convention, Phillis gets an inside look at women’s struggle to enter politics and Houston’s cover up of the shameful crime, as she painfully learns that some news stories can never be written.
