White Picket Fences
Behind Closed Words Collection #1
by Kyle Ann Robertson
Genre: Women’s Fiction
White Picket Fences is a heartfelt family drama fueled by an honest story of motherhood,
written for those of us caught up in our own self-searching journeys. The one
thing Julie Cahill knows because of her transitory upbringing as a military
brat is that she never had a hometown. So she has made sure her kids would grow
up in one forever home, in a forever neighborhood, with lots of forever
friends. Yet her dream of a permanent hometown has her feeling fenced in.
Set in the Delaware Bay area, Julie has achieved her dreams but struggles with having to
accept invisibility, underappreciation, and being taken for granted by her
family in trade for her unconditional love. Her guilt over not being available
for her family on that one fateful day has her challenging karma by tightening
her grip on her daughters and husband, ultimately pushing them away.
Not So Little Things

Tina Edwards loved her childhood and creating fairy houses, a passion shared with her
father, a world-renowned architect. But at nine years old, she found him dead
at his desk and is haunted by this memory. Tina’s mother abruptly moved away
leaving Tina with feelings of abandonment and suspicion. Raised by her loving,
wheelchair-bound Aunt Liddy, her father’s sister, 33 year old Tina has
become a miniature room artist and cherishes the control she has over her
life in Northeast Georgia as she works hard to please her beloved dead father’s
wishes of following in his footsteps in art and history.
At the same
time Mr. Jake Martin, all six-foot three of him, with a heavy southern
drawl and winsome dimple, hires Tina to build replicas of the original rooms of
his own family’s Victorian mansion purchased to turn into a
B&B, Tina’s estranged, dying mother re-enters her life with family
secrets that must be told. Amid their research for Jake, Tina and her
assistant find out that stories from his past were unfounded and prove that
miscommunications and misperceptions passed down through families create unwarranted,
painful separations, echoing Tina’s life story.
