Book Description
New Yorker Gillian Chang starts her second term at posh Spencer Academy boarding school in San Francisco prepared to focus on her studies, her faith, and her friends. She plays a dozen musical instruments and can recite the periodic table of the elements backward. She's totally prepared for everything--except love! She's falling hard for Lucas Hayes, who isn't even a senior yet and is already aiming at a Ph.D. in physics from Stanford. The problem is, she never seems to be able to measure up and be the girlfriend he wants. He's under a lot of pressure from his parents to achieve--maybe that's why he's short-tempered sometimes. But even a thick-skinned girl like Gillian can only take so much. With her heart on the line, Gillian conceals more and more from her friends. So when she's accused of selling exam answer sheets, even her girlfriends, Lissa Mansfield and Carly Aragon, wonder if it can be true. Gillian will need the power of honesty--with herself and with Lucas--to show what she's really made of.

Book Description
The girl who has everything is dating the handsome prince. What’s wrong with this picture? Shani Hanna has always felt like the poor little rich girl—she has everything she wants and almost nothing that she needs, like the attention of her globetrotting parents. But all that changes during senior year at Glory Prep. After an amazing summer in Santa Barbara, where she meets Danyel Johnstone, who might be the hottest guy on the planet, she returns to school happy and determined to keep a relationship alive, to say nothing of acing her grades and snagging a place at Harvard. But on her first day back, she meets a handsome prince—no, really! Prince Rashid of Amir is spending an exchange term at Glory Prep, and he only has eyes for Shani. Talk about an embarrassment of riches—Shani would give anything to see Danyel, but circumstances always seem to force her together with Rashid. What she doesn’t know is that her family and the prince’s go back a long way. In each generation, they’ve expanded their business interests through a tradition as ancient as it is inescapable ... and despite all her plans, Shani is the next in line. “What a fun read! Every little girl dreams of being a princess, but there’s a lot more to it than one might think.” —recording artist and Grammy nominee Jaci Velasquez

Dorothy Jensen tells the story of her humble beginnings as Dorothy Zimmerman in Wichita Falls, Texas, where she grew up with her mother Pearl, her sister Lavona, and her brother Leo. After high school, she worked at Perkins-Timberlake Department store in the credit department. One year, she and a co-worker took a trip together to Pike's Peak.

They married and she became the mother of three sons who filled her days while they traveled during Ib's military career, living in Guantanamo Bay and Okinawa, and several places in the United States. Dorothy and Ib continued to travel for pleasure to Denmark, Germany, Spain, and places far from those humble beginnings in Wichita Falls.

She began the project by writing fifty-three pages and then incorporated that with several travel journals she kept over the years. Dorothy also has hundreds of slides to go along with these memories.
