BITTERSWEET SUMMER - Paula's Story


My newly published novel is now on Amazon for $14.30, as well as from me (autographed) for $18 by media mail, $20 priority mail (all major credit cards accpeted), 6 x 9 paperback, 396 pages. Kindle: $7.99 and on Smashwords $7.99, with a 26% discount sale until August 1, 2011. These are the quotes from the book jacket:

1967 was known as the Summer of Love. Artist Paula Marlow never dreamed Jamie Remington would show up at her door. They met at her husband’s family reunion five years earlier when Jamie was fourteen—and pure lightning bolts shot straight through them both—with Paula still married to his Uncle Dan. And what about the Texas rancher Paula's best friend, actress Dana Scofield, brings into the mix?  Sometimes a woman has to accept the bitter with the sweet—during the bittersweet Summer of Love!

"Unrequited lust gets a second chance in this novel that sizzles hotter than the summer sun.  Two people learn that age is not a barrier when desire demands satisfaction.  Add to the heat another man who could hold the keys to a secure future. This book will keep you turning the page from the first word to the last."   Maggie Linton,  Program Director, Sirius XM Book Radio

The companion novel, SUMMER OF LOVE - Dana's Story, should be available by September on Kindle and Smashwords, $6.99.  The cover is presently being designed by the photographer who took the picture for the cover of BITTERSWEET SUMMER, Xavier Kohan, and will have the Hollywood sign in the picture. You meet Dana in BITTERSWEET SUMMER as Paula's best friend. 

I had a pleasant surprise this month when my memoir, COSMIC CONSPIRACY - Psychic to the Rich and Famous, was placed on Publishers Weekly PW Select list for July.  My memoir is on Amazon and related online bookstores for $17.90, or autographed from me and shipped for $18 by media mail or $20 priority mail.

I'm currently writing a zany novel called SENIOR SEX AT HILLSDALE GARDEN ASSISTED LIVING that I turned into a screenplay and is currently being read by Hollywood producers.
