But it’s not going to be easy. His once-brilliant plan to pass himself off as Rabbi David Cohen is unraveling. Enemies on both sides of the law are hot on his trail. His wife and son are unreachable in witness protection and are probably in danger. In order to find his family, get out of the desert alive, and salvage his long-sought-after happy ending, Sal is going to have to confront some very bad people from his past. Native American kingpin Peaches Pocotillo has wrested control of Chicago’s mob family while expanding his criminal empire in the west, and now seeks to settle an old score with Sal. These two antiheroes have a history that stretches back decades, and the blood feud between Peaches and Sal will lead them to a violent showdown deep in the heart of the low desert. As complications cast old revelations in a new light, including one that stretches back to the long-ago death of Sal’s infamous gangster father Dark Billy Cupertine, Sal must team up with some unlikely allies—and confront the reality of who he has become—in this stunning conclusion to the popular and critically acclaimed Gangsterland trilogy.

So what if he’s still grieving his father’s death and mourning the spectacular failure of his writing career? His life is perfectly fine, thank you very much. He’s not looking for love or a relationship, no matter what his nosy family thinks. Especially not with a writer from out of town. Which is fine, because bestselling author Hazel Woodward isn’t looking for love either. She’s just looking for an escape, which is how she winds up in Gossamer Falls, a town where magic feels more than just make believe. With her deadline looming, Hazel has only a few weeks to submit the first hundred pages of her manuscript or forfeit her hefty advance—which might be a problem, because she’s been living off of it for the past two years. While getting divorced, losing her best friend to a heartbreaking betrayal, and dealing with the worst case of writers block ever known to man. Now, in the picturesque town of Gossamer Falls, while staying at the Shephard Inn, she's hoping she can put the past behind her and focus on her career. There’s a reason Adam doesn’t get involved with his guests, even ones with the most amazing brown eyes he’s ever seen. Even ones as gorgeous, smart, and talented as Hazel. Because in the end, they all leave. But there’s magic in the air, and he can’t watch Hazel struggle. Especially when he just might have the solution to her writer’s block. Too bad it might cost him his heart.

Book excerpt: Jack Shephard doesn’t believe in happy endings. He tried the whole happily ever after thing, and it ended in divorce. As a single dad and the Chief of Police in a small town, he doesn’t have time to date, which is just fine with him. He’s not looking for love. Especially not with a woman from the city who’s just as jaded about love and relationships as he is. Rosalie Crawford isn’t looking for love, either. Ever since her father walked out on her and her mother, leaving deep scars, she’s known that living happily ever after is nothing but a fairytale. She only does short-term and casual when it comes to men. When she gets stuck in Gossamer Falls for the night after scouting the location for a music video shoot, she doesn’t think twice about spending the night with gorgeous and sweet Jack Shephard. After one night with Rosalie, however, Jack can’t help but wonder if there might be more there. When Rosalie’s boss, pop music superstar Carrie Clark, decides to shoot her latest music video in Gossamer Falls, Jack and Rosalie will have a chance to reconnect. But there’s something he’s failed to mention, something that might throw a wrench into his plans with Rosalie—he’s a single dad to an eleven-year-old daughter. As much as Rosalie likes Jack, finding out about his daughter puts things in a different light. Relationships are risky enough, and with a kid involved…it’s all so much more complicated. But one night under the famous—and possibly magical—Gossamer Falls just might change everything, for both of them. Because in Gossamer Falls, magic lurks around every corner, just waiting to be discovered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guidebook for anyone looking to comprehend and prosper in the new world order In the age of autonomy, two parallel revolutions are unfolding. The first is a technological uprising, in which machines and algorithms achieve an unprecedented level of independence. Automation and AI will transform industries, altering the fabric of our economy and society. But this technological tide is more than a force of disruption; it’s a harbinger of a new way of thinking and living. The parallel revolution is deeply human and even more profound. As traditional structures crumble, a new sense of human autonomy emerges, allowing us to find meaning and direction in unexpected ways. Perspective Agents delves into this complex dance between machine and man, challenging us to adapt to and thrive in this new era. Drawing from extensive research, interviews, and personal experience, communications consultant Chris Perry explores: • The problem with using conventional wisdom to make sense of new realities • How the predominant technologies of an era shape new values, norms, and behaviors • The pioneering mindsets, models, resources, and strategies vital to future success Through an unflinching examination of both technological and human evolution, this book encourages readers to harness the potential of the Autonomous Age, see the world anew through new sources, and forge a path for professional and personal growth.
