Pianist in a Bordello
Pianist in a Bordello What would happen if a politician decided to tell the truth—the whole truth? Richard Youngblood, aspiring Congressman, is about to find out. He’s running on a platform of honesty and transparency—and against the advice of his friends and advisers he’s decided to start with himself. His autobiography will lay his entire life bare before voters just days before the election. And what a life he’s had. Born in a commune and named Richard Milhous Nixon Youngblood as an angry shot at his absent father, Richard grows up in the spotlight, the son of an enigmatic fugitive and the grandson of a Republican senator. He’s kidnapped and rescued, kicked out of college for a prank involving turkeys, arrested in Hawaii while trying to deliver secrets to the CIA…Dick Nixon Youngblood’s ready to tell all. He’ll even tell his readers about the Amandas—three women who share a name but not much else, and who each have helped shape and define the man he’s become. Are voters really ready for the whole truth? Are you? Pianist in a Bordello is a hilarious political romp through the last four decades of American history, from a narrator who is full of surprises.

I PASS AS WHITE
I was wondering if you could promote a book that I have just had published. Our dad wrote the book in the fifties and it was found after he passed away. Due to the unrest times, I feel this would be a great book to promote.
The name of the book is “I PASS AS WHITE” by William “Tex” Pointer. My dad was African American. Back then, he was what was known as a “white skinned Negro”. The book portrays his life, segregation and many statistics from the times. Through his life, at one point, he decided that he just wanted the opportunities that others had. He decided to pass as white. But, he vowed to strike a match for the Negro at every opportunity that he could. He never gave up on his race. He met my mom on leave from the Navy in Boston, married, moved to the suburbs, had children and went on to pass as white throughout his life. Below is the back cover for a quick overview.
This book was written in the 1950’s by our dad. The manuscript was found after he passed away. This is his story of what hate, ignorance, poverty and racism can do to a nation. What if you could change the direction of your life? Would you have the strength to make the sacrifices to get there? Bill Pointer had that strength. In these pages, you will see the price he paid for security and happiness. His life started out like most people. There was mom, dad, friends, school, several jobs, and the ambition to get ahead. But that is where the similarity ends. Bill’s journey through life was full of pain and mis

Everyone has a war story to tell.
A jaded cop struggling to come to terms with her past falls for an idealistic former Marine-turned-cat rescuer on the crime-infested streets of West Baltimore.
Hope Kennedy is a cynical Baltimore cop. Her beat is the Mondawmin area of West Baltimore—the most dangerous neighborhood in America’s most dangerous city. And she’s struggling—unsuccessfully—to overcome a terrible event that has come to shape her life. Hope’s become angry and bitter. She’s spiraling out of control. Hope has lost hope.
Luke Matthews is a decorated Marine Corps combat veteran. He received the Purple Heart for a wound inflicted in Afghanistan. Now, he works as a carpenter for a nonprofit that builds homes for disabled vets. In his spare time, he volunteers with a local cat rescue. But Luke’s battling his own demons. He’s haunted by the war. Specifically, by a fog of war experience—a tragic accident—that has left him racked with guilt.
When Hope and Luke meet in a dingy alley, it’s anything but love at first sight. But a near-fatal accident a week later forges a bond. Eventually, in the middle of a cold Baltimore winter, a romance heats up. Little-by-little, Hope and Luke help one another feel alive again.
But Hope doesn’t know how to process her past, a past that is now jeopardizing her future. And as she and Luke get closer, she questions whether she’s worthy of love.

All wrapped in the love of two perfectly imperfect human beings.
