Dubbed "Phenomenally Moving" by fans, read the award-winning complete trilogy to learn the gripping story of a mysterious dog who has escaped from a sinister lab, a lonely homeless girl surviving on wits alone, and a grieving veterinarian still haunted by a past that he can't let go of.

Rob Ryder made that pledge to his wife, and he was determined to stick to it. As technical consultant on blockbuster sports films, he had seen up close how the film business works and what kind of chaos can, and usually does, ensue. And now he was ready to take it on! Hollywood Jock is the suspenseful, dramatic, outrageous, and honest true story of the year when Rob Ryder, screenwriter, laid it all on the line -- and kicked, scratched, wheeled, dealed, and fought like hell to hit the Tinseltown big time. It is a chronicle of schmoozing producers, shopping screenplays, corralling sports legends, and dodging irate actors -- a fascinating perspective on the highs, the very lows, and the behind-the-scenes madness that makes the world of Hollywood so endlessly compelling . . . and infamously brutal.

The author's first novel, experimental in structure, which explores the themes of sexuality and polygamy.

Then she blew through my front door, all trainwreck and temptation. A broken soul. ... An invitation to danger. Photographer by day, Ben and Jerry's enthusiast by night, Louise Sloane isn't known for her organizational skills or obsession to detail, but when someone from her past goes missing, she makes it her mission to solve the case-especially when the mystery becomes linked to the notorious serial killer, the String Strangler. During one of the worst snowstorms on record, Louise sets off to the small, southern town of Berry Springs, bulldozing her way into the investigation, and into the home of a reclusive former inmate with eyes as cold as ice. Ryder's one goal in life is to be left alone. A desire unacknowledged by the five-foot-two trainwreck that breaks into his house in the middle of the night. He wants nothing to do with her and all her curves-until she uncovers his secrets and unearths a link to the past that changed his life forever. As boundaries are shattered and relationships are questioned, a body is found on Ryder's land and it becomes apparent that the killer is closer than anyone realized. And with his freedom on the line, Ryder must risk going back to prison, or losing Louise forever. ★Awards and Recognition ★ CABIN 1 (STEELE SHADOWS SECURITY) 2020 National Readers' Choice Award Finalist, 2020 HOLT Medallion Finalist.
