An untraditional life and love story, "White Houses" is inspired by the life of Lorena Hickok, and on her love affair and enduring friendship with First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. Told from Lorena Hickoks perspective, this novel is inspired by her life and by her relationship and long-term friendship with beloved Eleanor Roosevelt, the First Lady of the World. Hickok was the AP reporter who became First Friend and the love of Eleanors life. "White Houses" takes us behind the scenes in the Roosevelt White House, where Lorea lived, and follows Hickoks life from childhood, and then in tandem with Eleanors, the ups and downs of being First Friend, through the death of FDR, and finally of Eleanor.
