author: Tang, C.C.
description: Poems of Parker Book 1 Once upon a time, I would strategize on the best method to get rid of a date at the end of the weekend. I would stoop as low as having Stanley call to discuss 'important top-secret work' to help me get out of their homes or hotel rooms. Now, I finally feel what it's like to be on the receiving end. I sound desperate to my own ears, wanting just one more hour with her. Poems of Parker is a contemporary romance novel where characters of multicultural backgrounds depict joy, anger, and forgiveness as they learn the true components of family and love. When the driven businessman, Andrew Dawson, has to find an alternate method to secure a lucrative deal, he seeks more than a good internet connection at a local shop after his fleeting encounter with the young Vera Parker. The prospect of a passionate weekend love affair proves to be one that leaves the womanizer with a change of heart. Vera's fear of being vulnerable, and Andrew's struggle to overpower his instincts are not the only thorns in the side of their budding romance. An abrasive father and a cunning shunned lover threaten the life neither Andrew or Vera expected to desire. ***Warning*** Scenes in this book may be a trigger for and/or disturbing to some readers.
