Barbara Welcomes back the very talented and gifted Cynthia Jordan.  On top of being an amazing song writer and singer Cynthia now adds the title of Author to her many gifts.  Her last  book, Pearl, was warmly recieved by great numbers and her latest book, Diamond, continues her journey through the early decades of this country and the adventures of those ladies who were membersof Miss Pearls Parlor.

The year is 1924. 

Corsets are out.

Freedom is in.

Movies are silent 

and Hollywood is shaping American culture.

From coast to coast young girls like Heather Smith dream of becoming a movie star. One day two men shooting a western film near San Angelo, Texas, come to Miss Pearl's Parlor for some fun.

Is this Heather's big chance??

           Wyatt Earp, Mae West, Charlie Chaplin...

Their stories will astound you. Diamond reminds us that when we remove the glitzy glamour, smoke and mirrors it is our human nature that makes us all the same. 

These books are so much more than light hearted fiction, they are a reality that many women faced in those early decades of the twentyth century and how they prospered in spite of the limitations they faced.
