His office is located in the East Wing boy's bathroom, fourth stall from the high window. And business is booming. Or at least it was, until this particular Monday. Because this Monday is when Mac and Vince find out that the trouble with solving everyone else's problems is there's no one left to solve yours.

Download or read book GROUSIN BUDDIES written by Bob Feller; Bob Nelson and published by Author House. This book was released on 2005-12-07 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As our good friend, Retz, often says, “Life just keeps comin’ at ya.” This book is all about life with its fickle little twists and turns. We (the authors) met playing volleyball and grew to be best friends, business associates, and hunting partners. In our 30+ years of friendship we have played, laughed, loved, cried, and grieved together. Set against the backdrop of Northern Wisconsin, the stories in this book were not written specifically to go into a book. This book “just kind of happened” because of our love not only of writing but of the people, places, and events that shaped our lives; it happened because of our passion for the outdoors, its lessons, beauty, and bounty. Light a fire, grab a libation, put your feet up and share a bit of life with us.

Download or read book The Committee written by Sterling Watson and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Transmutes Lavender Scare investigators’ ruthless assaults on suspected homosexuals in 1950s Gainesville into heart-racing fiction.” —New York Journal of Books In the late 1950s, Gainesville, Florida, seems to be a sleepy university town. Its residents live, by outward appearances, ordinary lives. And yet the town is far from ordinary. The most private acts of professors, students, townspeople rich and poor, and politicians are under the close scrutiny of a shadowy group of men—the Committee—who use the powers of government and the police to investigate, threaten, and control this increasingly fearful community. The Committee pits friends against friends and threatens careers and lives in a struggle for the soul of a town, a university, and an ideal. Based on actual historical events and set against the backdrop of political, cultural, and class turmoil, this is a story of love—both licit and hidden—war, friendship, betrayal, compromise, and finally the necessity to stand firm against the encroachments upon freedom by men who believe they are doing God’s and the government’s righteous work. “The Committee takes place on campus, but deserves to be included with those ‘academic’ novels like Mary McCarthy’s The Groves of Academe, Randall Jarrell’s Pictures from an Institution, Kingsley Amis’s Lucky Jim, and Jane Smiley’s Moo, all books that burst out of their scholarly settings to light up the characters and societies they live in . . . This book will hold you to the very end, and after.” —Peter Meinke, Creative Loafing Tampa Bay “At once an historical, political, and academic novel, and it is one that succeeds on all these fronts.” —Reviewing the Evidence

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A full length romantic comedy set in the world of Crown Creek! Since I started hooking up with with Wesley Maxwell, I have learned the following: He is good at making people comfortable. He is good at home repairs. He is really, really good with his tongue. And after seven years… that’s all I know. Except for one more thing.... What a bad idea it would be to fall for him. Things between us are easy. Uncomplicated. I come home to Crown Creek once a month. I have brunch with my hot-mess mother and finicky grandmother. I nod and smile as they fret over why a competent, capable woman like me is still single. And then I go over to Wesley’s house and let him rock my world. He’s honest with me and I’m honest with him. He doesn’t want a relationship. And all I want is good sex. Things are fine just the way they are. The girls in my book club think I'm in love with him, but I’m not. He’s not the right guy for me. I need a grown up, and he has a pinball machine instead of a door, for heaven’s sake. I can’t be with someone like that. Not even when he rescues the world’s tiniest dog. Not even when he saves me from a total work disaster. Not even when he shows up at my door in the middle of the night… naked. We are not a couple. We are something else. And that something rhymes with duck-muddies. And damn his blue eyes, it's going to stay that way. ... Cluck Buddies is a silly, sexy spin-off set in the small town of CROWN CREEK. Expect a raunchy book club meeting interrupted by a confused rooster, lots of pun-based dirty talk, a sexy hero who only has eyes for the heroine (if she'd just look up and notice. Make that way up... he's really tall), and a tiny dog with a massive attitude. You can also expect cameos from some of your favorite Crown Creek characters as no one in this small town knows how to mind their own business... especially where love is concerned
