Sometimes you have to lose it all to find everything...Divorced with one grown son, George has only his retirement to look forward to. Carefully scrimping, allowing himself very few pleasures, and saving for his future life of expected ease, he gets the shock of his life when he is let go from his job. With his entire retirement in serious jeopardy, George is thrown into a panicked tailspin. Facing a job market heavily skewed toward youth, he finds it almost impossible to locate a comparable job in his field. After many entirely useless excursions into the employment market (can you say humiliating job interviews?), George takes the only job that is offered to him: he becomes a telephone psychic.In the fight for his own financial survival, George is forced to dig deep and find out exactly what he is made of. And then he meets Mimi. It is in the act of being forced down a path that he did not choose that George finds not just himself but the woman who has been missing from his life all along. Had he stayed true to the imagined life that he was sure he always wanted, true love and true happiness would have passed him right by.Buy it now and let the love of George and Mimi fill your heart

Volume 1 of the La Cucaracha seriesIt's been a crazy day in La La land.Not only did Lacey, an unsuccessful wannabe Hollywood actress, not get the part, but (after surviving a 7.7 earthquake) she and her Latina best friend Marisol are terrified by a disturbing, dark, hooded figure on their way to a Halloween party. Still dealing with Tinsel Town aftershocks, soon cataclysmic world events are all over the news and the internet.Birds fall dead from the sky. Tons of dead fish wash ashore in LA and around the world. Post-earthquake fires rage, and mud slides and flooding follow torrential rains threaten Los Angeles. World citizens report shooting stars and meteors that stream across the sky, after which villages, towns, and cities are struck down with the black death as hooded messengers of mayhem, purported grim reapers, spray strange mists that cause people to grow sick and die.An unusual cockroach infestation, in downtown LA, follows the earthquake, torrential rains, mudslides, and other events, but the media and public officials insist that the reports are mass hallucinations and the events are unrelated. If you love any kind of bug war, you'll love La Cucaracha V1, an escape from LA adventure with Lacey and Marisol.
