&#8220nomal family,&#8221and how do you go about making
one? Chrysta Bilton&#8217magnetic, larger-than-life mother,
Debra, yearned to have a child, but as a single gay woman in
1980s California, she had few options. Until one day, while
getting her hair done in a Beverly Hills salon, she met a man
and instantly knew he was the one she&#8217dbeen looking
for. Beautiful, athletic, artistic, and from a well-to-do family,
Jeffrey Harrison appeared to be Debra&#8217ideal sperm
donor. A verbal agreement, a couple of thousand in cash, and
a few squirts of a turkey baster later, and Chrysta was

conceived. Over the years, Jeffrey would make regular
appearances at the family home, which grew to include
Chrysta&#8217baby sister. But how much did Debra really
know about the man she&#8217dchosen to father her
daughters? And as a single mother torn between ferocious
independence and abject dependence&#8212onother women,
alcohol, drugs, and the adrenaline of get-rich-quick
schemes&#8212wht secrets of her own was she keeping? It

discovered just how much her parents had hidden from their
daughters&#8212an each other&#8212inluding a shocking
revelation with far-reaching consequences not only for Debra,
Chrysta, and her sister, but for dozens and possibly hundreds
of unsuspecting families across the country. After a lifetime of
longing for a &#8220nomal family,&#8221can Chrysta face the
reality of her own, in all its complexity? Bringing us into the fold
of a deeply dysfunctional yet fiercely loving clan that is
anything but &#8220nomal,&#8221this emotional roller coaster
of a memoir will make you cry, laugh, and rethink the meaning
of family.
