My BBQ Brethren, Ladies and Gentlemen,
My first novel, Entangled Passions, published this week in Kindle and print formats at Amazon. It took four years to gestate, but is finally ready to find a home in reader's imaginations. Here is the back cover description:
Overworked software executive Jennifer Rolendti searches for her life’s purpose after a tragic childhood near-death experience. The event revealed the details and timing of her purpose, but she forgot the specifics once revived. Her life becomes a focused and uninhibited search for the critical knowledge she was told to remember.
Her husband, Dominic, a retired restaurant owner with a hidden past, supports Jenn’s search. Their boundless, unconditional love opens every door to find answers, even allowing men and woman into Jenn’s bed when necessary. He shares Jenn’s challenges as her search reveals layers of secrets in her life, launching her into a sinister corporate conspiracy that could end the lives of everyone she knows.
Entangled Passions is an emotionally intimate thriller with a heart of love and soul of sensual freedom. Mystery, science, and romance weave together to keep the reader guessing from the first sentence to the last.
The novel was a work of love for my wife, an avid reader who enjoys unpredictable novels. She's also a wonderful representative of my target market. Although one man, a beta reader, enjoyed an earlier version of the novel, the women who beta read earlier manuscripts loved the characters, the organic plot, and the transparent foreshadowing. One editor wrote, "What a ride it has been. I enjoyed it as much on the second read, which is saying a lot." A later beta reader's husband had to hide the middle section from his wife so they could get work done around the house.
The first chapter is available to read on Amazon if considering it as a purchase or gift. Take a look. Have your wife or girlfriend take a look. It isn't for everyone, but it is finally alive in the world, one day old as I type.
Thank you for your attention,
Ray
