A Dozen Dead Roses


Book Description

Poetry is not the kind of expression that one just decides they want to pursue. You are born with madness inside that just eats away at you both mentally and emotionally. For a poet, it can be beautiful and imaginatively introspective, and it can at times be destructive through its melancholy and divisive when your emotions are spun out of control only to feed your inner monologue in ways that beg the question of who is really writing this. Jeremy's poetry is constantly scratching at both ends of the spectrum in his work. There isn't necessarily a clear path, but one that is constantly gauging the forks by their virtue. The few pieces that do stick to one end of an emotional divide do so with a beat and very sticky wordplay.




A DOZEN DEADLY ROSES


Book Description

A man obsessed with revenge. An innocent boy in his crosshairs. The child’s LAPD mom is his only hope. Someone wants her dead… Police officer Jade Donovan thought life was going well: a sweet four-year-old son, a good job, and a promotion in her future. But things have taken a dangerous turn. She’s being stalked. Hunted. Her predator delivers dead roses to Jade, each time the threats more descriptive, more terrifying. Her one hope is to figure out who wants to kill her before the intimidations become a reality. And the onlyman she can trust to help is the one man she’s avoided. A man who can destroy her world. He had nothing to live for… Former cop Mac Stryker lost everything years ago: his wife, his daughter, and his career, which he drowned with whiskey. Now nearly five years sober, Mac is slowly rebuilding his life. He’s got his badge back and a newfound purpose: to help his partner find the man stalking and threatening her. It’s his job, yes—but there’s more. An attraction to Jade and her sweet son making Mac feel alive again. But will a secret rock Mac’s tenuous hold on sobriety? When the stalker makes his final deadly strike, can Mac forget the past and save Jade and her son? Or will history repeat itself?

American Rhapsody


Book Description

If the Watergate scandal was a previous generation's National Nightmare, then maybe the Clinton scandal was our National Wet Dream, and who better to narrate it than the screenwriter Joe Eszterhas? In American Rhapsody, Eszterhas, whose credits include Basic Instinct and Showgirls, and Charlie Simpson's Apocalypse, for which he was nominated for a National Book Award, takes us through the events that threatened to topple a president and left most of the nation's citizens with, at the very least, a bad taste in their mouths. Taking full advantage of his considerable journalistic and storytelling talents, Eszterhas gives us every fact, rumor, or innuendo surrounding the president's foibles in the context of late century American politics and entertainment. Here Washington and Hollywood do more than just flirt with each other; they share the same bed. From scandalmongers Matt Drudge (who began as a Hollywood gossip) and Ken Starr, to would-be president paramours Sharon Stone and Barbra Streisand, to his final, unimpeachable witness, Willard—none other than President Clinton's talking penis—Eszterhas gives us the goods on the story that nobody could stop talking about and, thanks to American Rhapsody, will be impossible to think about the same way again.
