In 1981, Teenie Outler’s trailer park world is over-flowing with young love, sex, drugs and rock-n-roll. Music means everything and your friends mean even more. Your family is not always there for you but searching for happiness and finding it is what it is all about. PARKED begins on a freezing night in December 1975, in a trailer park on the outskirts of the small, southern town of Randolph, where the life of six-year-old Teenie Outler is forever changed by her father in a rage-fueled moment. Left alone with Jubalee, her cold, resentful grandmother, Teenie searches for love in this touching, funny and true-to-life novel. Set in the South in the 1970's and 1980's, Teenie soon learns to do whatever it takes to get what she needs. Searching for love and family, Teenie replaces the people who abandon her, taking what comfort she can from others while freely giving back what little she has to offer. Along the way, Teenie discovers the past can only define you if you let it. Teenie Outler has a strong, original voice and the characters who populate her small world are vibrant and realistically flawed. Universal themes of family, friendship, betrayal and forgiveness make certain PARKED will be a relevant and timeless favorite for years to come.PARKED is a #1 Best Selling novel on Amazon with over 18,000 copies sold.
