Whoever said singles were missing out by not finding true love and getting married before the age of thirty had never experienced the sheer pleasure of nightly romantic comedy viewings in their underwear while eating one of Licked's famous Crazy Cat Lady sundaes. Because life just doesn't get better than that. At least, it doesn't for Shayne Callahan. It didn't take more than a handful of broken hearts after college to solidify that she was better at pairing up those around her than herself. As a matchmaker at the elite HLS-Hook, Line, & Sinker Matchmaking Company-in the City of Angels, she has a knack for finding the other halves of even the most eccentric clients: Sugar daddy with a foot fetish? Gross, but no problem.A severe case of nudophobia? Match made before lunch. But even the most happily independent of women can find their best-laid plans screeching to a halt when they meet that guy. For Shayne, that guy comes in the form of boyishly handsome, suspender-lovin', dimple-poppin' Nate Ryan on a pantsless (we'll get to that later) Metro ride. Of course, relationships can never be easy. Before the destined lovers can ride off into the sunset, they must overcome a power-hungry and sexual-punning boss, a celebrity scandal and cover-up, and let's not forget Shayne's dreadful foot-in-mouth disease-with which there can never be a happily ever after. Will fate throw Shayne a freakin' bone? Or will she be destined to live out her life as sexy(ish), single(ish), and L.A.'s finest Hooker (upper)? Hooker is Book Two in the L.A. Liaisons series, but all books can be read as standalone novels.

Dreams Fulfilled: The conclusion of the chronicles of the Beauchamp family.

"Dreams Fulfilled" concludes the trilogy of the Beauchamp family. High on the snow covered Sierra Nevada ridge, the woman lay back on her horsehair bed in the wagon. A blizzard was raging outside and she knew that she and her family and friends were in danger of losing their lives, stranded in the mountains in winter. She also knew that the men were planning a final attempt to break through the pass. They carried such a strong determination to make a new life in California. She braced herself and allowed the other women to begin to help deliver her baby under near impossible conditions. A little while later, the men heard the cry and they paused in their work. A new child had joined the party and had added to both the stress of the situation and to the determination to make it through. Captain Charles Beauchamp lay in the muck of a Vietnamese swamp alongside the crashed Huey helicopter. Fuel was spilling out and the fumes were becoming stronger. He had to get away in spite of the shattered kneecap and the broken arm. He had to drag himself through the swamp. He had to move on. Charles was fighting not only a formidable enemy in the jungle, but also his family back home and a growing American opposition to the war. He had to complete his mission.Joseph watched as Major Dade rode past him on his horse, leading his men through the cabbage palms and palmetto of central Florida. Dade turned in his saddle and looked back across the two lines of men marching behind him. They were anxious to reach their destination, knowing that an ambush was highly probable. Joseph lay flat in the grass. He put his fingers into his ears and he held his breath as the shots rang out. He just wanted to be out of this turmoil. He just wanted to be free from all that held him back from beginning a new life.Just what is that characteristic in the human spirit that drives us on against near impossible odds? Following the previous two novels, "Dreams Fulfilled" takes another broad sweep across the Beauchamp family's involvement in American history; from the Seminole Wars of 1835 and the 1844 wagon trek into California, through the Vietnam War and many other personal struggles. Following the first two novels - "Crimes of a Guilty Land" and "Dreams of a Promised Land" - "Dreams Fulfilled" concludes the Beauchamp story that began in 1746 when John Beauchamp decided to leave his home in Bristol, England to start a new life in Virginia. Over the span of more than two hundred and sixty years, his family has fought against not only numerous military enemies, but also against social and racial discrimination and against sexual and religious bigotry. Dreams of a better life, and a strong will to achieve that life, has infused the family with optimism, love and determination. Humor has had its place alongside hardship."Dreams Fulfilled" takes the family up to the year 2016, and it describes their most ambitious dream and hope yet. The question as to whether it can possibly be achieved provides the basis for the novel.

My Confessions from Vietnam

My Confessions from Vietnam

Brooke Miller Hall; Mark S. Miller

Mark Miller was fresh out of college when he was drafted for active duty in Vietnam. The thought of fleeing to Canada crossed his mind, but instead he wound up undergoing "shake 'n' bake" training-the quick and mostly inefficient method of preparing new infantry sergeants for leadership. Shake 'n' bakers had a reputation for getting themselves-and sometimes their men-killed quickly, so the men of the Garbage Squad were understandably leery of their new sergeant. Fortunately, Miller and his squad saw eye to eye on a very important detail-they all wanted to get out of Nam alive, preferably without killing anyone in the process. My Confessions from Vietnam tells a story not of heroic war, but of a small group of young men just trying to keep their minds and bodies intact under terrifying conditions. Sometimes that meant defying orders by military "lifers" more interested in promotions than safeguarding their troops. Sometimes that meant killing pigs and claiming them as part of the body count. Intimate, raw, and at times funny and heartwarming, Mark Miller's wartime confessions remind us of a side of Vietnam often forgotten in Hollywood's romanticized glamorization of war and those who fight it.
