CITY GIRL - THE EARLY YEARS is a collection of human interest columns written for the Rains County Leader in Emory, Texas. The author writes about her struggles to adjust to living in the country after spending most of her life in more metropolitan surroundings. Her columns cover a variety of topics from gardening to faith and everything in between, and they vary in tone from serious to ridiculous. One reader commented that "she can write about nothing and make it interesting." Her musings will make you laugh, cry, and sometimes scratch your head, but you will never be bored.
Tatia's family is recovering from Joy's dramatic rescue when their quiet Sunday afternoon is interrupted by the doorbell. Madison collapses into Joy's arms, bruised and trembling with symptoms of withdrawal. Who is this mysterious young woman whose phone call saved Joy from kidnappers and traffickers? And why is a Chicago crime boss looking for her?
As a successful D.C. lawyer, Tatia’s mission in life was to destroy the sex trafficking trade in small-town America. She knew where to find it. She’d been there. With only apathetic foster parents to protect her, she fell prey to the local pimp. Trapped in the sordid underbelly of a small Texas town, she survived by sheer will.

Would Mrs. G, a mama bear of an attorney, still think she had strength and potential? Would Jesse, the young Christian tattoo artist and biker, still look at her with a twinkle in his eyes? Or would they both see only the mark of shame Eric had etched onto her forearm?
Tatia and Jesse have a perfect life in Chicago. Her testimony put Eric in prison in Texas twenty years ago. How could anything go wrong?A mysterious envelope invades their home with news of a trafficker’s parole, and a handwritten note asks the ominous question about their daughter: Is Joy as brave as her mother?An old black van. A missing child. Tatia and Jesse race through the city streets with a band of bikers while Johnny and Jade dig through the dark web and Detectives Nelson and Martin pound on doors.Will it be enough? Or will Joy become another statistic?
