Book Description
Have you ever felt lost? Tugging on your heartstrings with nostalgia, Rough Edges takes readers back to the days of AOL Instant Messenger, MySpace, and the sometimes messy separation between our online personas and the real world. Months away from high school graduation, Casey desperately craves a place to fit in, a person to see her, and a way out of her small New Jersey town. When she finds this escape in a person behind a glowing computer screen, one who fills her void with constant attention, charm, and what she believes to be true love, Casey struggles with the choice of coming back to reality. . . . That is until she transitions to college in Philadelphia and meets someone else. Someone in the real world. Someone who slowly begins to put those same lost pieces of her back into place. Casey continually attempts to force the two halves of herself into separate boxes, but what happens when both worlds unexpectedly collide? She'll have to make a choice, if there's even one left for her to make.

Second chances aren't easy. Sometimes, it takes some Rough Love. Bruce Tannen is known as Brutal from his days as a monster on the football field. But now, he's a farmhand on what used to be his family's land, and change is all around him. New family. New expectations. New friends. It's all fine by him until he runs into the one woman to ever hold his heart. Allyson left him a lifetime ago, but she's the only thing that's ever felt right. In his arms, in his heart, and in his life. Something's different, though. She's a shadow of her former self, and he wonders what could've dulled her shine. He can help fight her demons and bring back her sunny smile, but should he? Allyson Meyers had her life all figured out, but a wrong turn took her on a journey she never imagined.

Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Compelling from cover to cover, this is the story of one of the most recorded and beloved jazz trumpeters of all time. With unsparing honesty and a superb eye for detail, Clark Terry, born in 1920, takes us from his impoverished childhood in St. Louis, Missouri, where jazz could be heard everywhere, to the smoke-filled small clubs and carnivals across the Jim Crow South where he got his start, and on to worldwide acclaim. Terry takes us behind the scenes of jazz history as he introduces scores of legendary greats—Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson, Dizzy Gillespie, Dinah Washington, Doc Severinsen, Ray Charles, Thelonious Monk, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, Coleman Hawkins, Zoot Sims, and Dianne Reeves, among many others. Terry also reveals much about his own personal life, his experiences with racism, how he helped break the color barrier in 1960 when he joined the Tonight Show band on NBC, and why—at ninety years old—his students from around the world still call and visit him for lessons.
