Montana reunion [large print] / by Fyffe, Caroline,author.(CARDINAL)501638;
"Scottsdale, Arizona, May 1888: A year and a half after Chaim McCutcheon was essentially left at the altar--for reasons he's yet to discover--one steadfast aim remains firm in his mind and heart. Never again. He left his home and family, and all he held dear, in Rio Wells, Texas, with the intention not to return until every nuance of Emmeline Jordan had been burned from his soul by the blazing Arizona sun. He's adjusted to his solitary life on his rustic desert ranch, so different from the sprawling Rim Rock in Texas. Forgetting Emmeline may take some doing, but time is one thing Chaim has in spades. Can an invite to Y Knot for a surprise family gathering for his Uncle Flood entice Chaim to change his decision and reunite with his family, who are also journeying to Montana? His pride and his walled-off heart say no chance of that. Perhaps the unexpected appearance of Tessa Webb, a determined young woman on a quest of love, might do the trick."--

Dorothy Dandridge : the life and legacy of one of Hollywood's first successful black actresses / by Charles Rivers Editors (firm);
The bright summer sun shined blissfully on a secluded valley tucked into the romantic Costa del Sol in southern Spain. Water bubbled friskily over a rocky streambed as trees swayed in the gentle tropical breeze and dappled the banks in playful shadows. A closer look reveals a man and a woman entwined on the rocky shore in an intimate embrace. The man trembles with longing as he bends over the woman, his parted lips just inches from hers. She eagerly folds her arms around him, her fingertips passionately digging into the skin on his back as she draws him closer.Suddenly, a director's voice rings out, ٢Cut!٣ The man was white. The woman was black, and in Hollywood in 1959, that was still taboo. The steamy scene was being shot for the film Malaga, and the actress in the scene, Dorothy Dandridge, had just shared Hollywood's controversial first interracial kiss on screen a year earlier. Despite this distinction and other more notable accomplishments, many people today are not familiar with the groundbreaking actress, even as she was among the most charismatic and beautiful actresses of the era. Her alluring nightclub acts set pulses pounding across the globe, and she was Hollywood's first black leading actress.Sadly, all of it came at a high price. Dorothy bore the scars of a tormented childhood, endured the fallout from multiple failed relationships, suffered professional and financial setbacks, and battled ongoing alcohol and prescription drug abuse. Throughout all that, racism was the most tenacious demon she had to fight, because Dorothy came of age in an era when society and the entertainment world largely held to demeaning racial stereotypes. Though she appeared in 15 movies, her career was overshadowed by the work of contemporary white screen legends such as Grace Kelly, Judy Garland, and Marilyn Monroe. Dorothy understandably believed she could have become so much more if she had been born white. As she poignantly put it, ٢What was I? That outdated 'tragic mulatto' of earlier fiction? Oddly enough, there remains some validity in this concept, in a society not yet integrated. I wasn't fully accepted in either world, black or white. I was too light to satisfy Negroes, not light enough to secure the screen work, the roles, the marriage status available to a white woman.٣ Nevertheless, Dorothy made great strides for the black community and blazed trails for minority entertainers. She confronted racial stereotypes, overcame prevailing cinematic conventions, and set attendance records throughout her entire career. She attained genuine stardom as the lead in the 1954 film Carmen Jones, and her portrayal earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress, the first such Oscar nod for a black woman.
