He found unlikely solace: Collins began confiding in his daughter about the war before she turned five. Drawing on her recollections and a suitcase of her father’s old letters and photographs, Julia Collins pieces together his experience during the war, his return home, and his subsequent descent — offering a new perspective on the men of “the greatest generation.” Photographs are included in this candid recollection.

Tempest
Now that Morgan and her boys are dealing with their stalker again, life gets interesting. Being stuck with each other while not being able to do anything, is doing a number on them. And they all deal with it in their own way. New problems arrive, and they’re not all fun and games. Will everyone make it out with both their minds and their bodies intact? ***** Tempest is the second book of three in The Charlington Chronicles. This is a full length reverse harem, meaning the main character will end up with at least three of her love interests. This book contains graphic sexual scenes, strong language, problems with mental health and the mention of the darker side of society. But most of all, it’s got a lot of unnecessary jokes. Don’t say I haven’t warned you.
