Brittany loved living in Florida, going to the beach, and playing with her friends. When her dad had to transfer to a new job in North Carolina, she was heartbroken. She didn't want to move or leave her Grandma Rose. There were many surprises in North Carolina for Brittany. She and Sparky, her little dog, loved her princess tower room. She found new friends at the new school. Brittany learned some kids at her new school were afraid to walk past her neighbor's house and she was very curious to find out why. From her princess tower room, Brittany and Sparky could look right into the neighbor's reading room. When the stranger caught them looking into her window, her beady eyes glared as she shook a piece of firewood at them. "Could she really be that mean?" Brittany was determined to find out why. It was Christmas when a determined Brittany discovered what to do.

In the new opera Amelia, a first time mother-to-be, whose psyche has been scarred by the loss of her pilot father in Vietnam, must break free from anxiety to embrace healing and renewal for the sake of her husband and child. Set against a thirty-year period from the 1960s to the 1990s, the story interweaves one woman's emotional journey, the American experience in Vietnam, and elements of myth and history to explore our fascination with flight and the dilemmas that arise when vehicles of flight are used for exploration, adventure, and war. This is an intensely personal libretto by American poet Gardner McFall, whose father was a Navy pilot who served in Vietnam and was lost in the Pacific. It moves from loss to recuperation, paralysis to flight, as the protagonist, Amelia, ultimately embraces her life and the creative force of love and family.Watch the book trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnoHzNLLQBU

I reported Amelia missing at 4:15pm.I know she needs to get away from that toxic family of hers, and they need to stay away.I'm her protector. She will be safe with me.From No One.
A WILD, DANGEROUS LOVE Amelia Howard cherishes her desert country. The dazzling colors, white heat, and rough sensuality of west Texas stir her very soul. But there's a serpent in her paradise: King Culhane. A towering sunburned cowboy with silver eyes that miss nothing, he's a man she's come to despise--no matter how much she had worshiped him when she was fourteen. As her father pushes her to secure a marriage proposal from King's mild-mannered brother in order to marry into the Culhane dynasty, Amelia assumes the mask of a demure young lady, always correct and obedient. It's a posture that King holds in contempt. Yet when she reveals the true force of her feelings, she unleashes a smoldering passion that cannot be denied. And everything--propriety, filial duty, even love--will be scorched in the wake of such all-consuming desire.
