Girl of Mine

All stories, good or bad, begin at the right time and place.

The night Rosalie Wood's boyfriend of one year proposed to her during an Elvis Presley concert in 1956, she went from thinking she knew everything, to knowing nothing. Faced with Wendell's infidelity, she soon finds herself consumed by the anxious, unknown road ahead.

But a path is paved as Elvis joins her journey at the height of his infamous criticism. Beneath the dazzling spotlight, he battles the pressure of public scrutiny, unflattering nicknames, rules to follow or break, and the growing disconnection between the man and the image.

As Rosalie becomes a steady presence in Elvis' life, helping him navigate his struggles and love life, she's forced to confront her own. Their growing bond, rooted in trust and friendship, lets them discover solace where they thought there was none.

This is the start of a book series about personal growth, staying true to yourself, and the many challenges we stumble upon throughout human life, no matter who we are.
