Ellie Homans, artist and wife of a prominent surgeon, lives in sumptuous luxury in a Boston suburb. Senator Alexander Lindsay, of Bostonian aristocracy, is vital, handsome, and politically powerful. But privilege has shielded neither from loveless marriages. Together they find a passionate commitment that submerges their mutual devotion to fidelity and personal integrity. The discovery of their affair leads Ellie¿s husband to devise a life-threatening method to imprison his wife in her unwanted marriage. He unwittingly passes his vendetta to his daughter, whose fury brings mother and daughter to the brink of disaster. Ellie¿s escape from innocence to costly awareness leads her to the realization that love, no matter how mature, can have a dreadful price. A woman finally discovers what she wants¿and what it costs. Ellie Homans keeps a running tally of "shoulds" in her mind, a list of her failures as the wife of an eminent surgeon from one of Boston's first families and mother to a son following in his father's footsteps and a daughter who hates her. The list is a catalog of battles she's lost over the years, from the decoration of the house to where her daughter Annie should go to college. Curtis (Song for a Lifetime, 1999) unfolds this romantic drama set among the New England aristocracy with an assured hand. Rich, engaging characters demonstrate that love often comes at a high price. -Kirkus Discoveries

She pens Broadway songs, but will the curtain ever close on her feelings for her ex-fiancé? Love gets a redo in this show-stopping romance.

When Zach blows back into town, he has the potential to destroy Ashley's career. Zach is still overwhelmed by his feelings for Ashley, but will his desperate ploy to stop loving her get in the way of helping her further her career? As Ashley and Zach discover, it's hard to rewrite the lyrics to their passionate and complicated love song.

Song for a Lifetime

By: Mary Haskell Curtis

A success on stage. A failure at love. There’s only one song worth singing for this star, but it may tear her heart in two. Using her stunning looks and hypnotically beautiful voice, Marcy Hanson achieved success beyond what she had imagined. But Dirk's charm pervaded her thoughts, leaving her paralyzed by love. Dirk, back to reclaim his love, bursts back into Marcy's life as disruptively as he left, but he brings more than flowers and the promise of romance. He brings a choice: his love for her or her love for music. Now Marcy must choose what part of her heart to follow. Which will she give up?
