Cherished One: Book One
A Tarnished novel
Born to a spiteful prostitute in Storyville, the red-light district in New Orleans, David comes into the world as Picayune, meaning "of little value, " or, as his mother reminds him, "nothing." In the early 20th century brothels and clubs, his love of music sustains young Pic until a life-changing meeting places him on the road to respectability, and Pic reinvents himself as David Reid.
As David realizes happiness for the first time, conscription forces his friend and first love, Spencer Webb, into the Great War. While he pursues a law degree, letters from Spence connect David to his hopes for the future. After staggering news at war's end, David must find a way to move forward. Under the tutelage of his benefactor, David's career prospers, but specters from Storyville threaten all he's worked so hard to achieve.
The past holds both pain and love. Will facing it head-on destroy David or give him everything he's ever dared dream?
