Book 1 in the Jackson Falls Series

From the USA Today bestselling author of FINAL EXIT comes a breathtaking novel about love, friendship, and the fine line between the two.

One man became her husband.

Danny Fiore is a handsome, charismatic singer with huge ambitions and a voice that can peel the paper off the walls. Casey Bradley is just eighteen years old, but the songs she writes send an icy finger down the center of Danny’s cynical spine. Danny knows exactly where he’s going, and he’s not planning to take any woman along. A woman like Casey would want things he’s not prepared to give. A home. Stability. Children. He’s married to his music, and that’s the way he likes it. Besides, the woman isn’t even free; she’s engaged to her childhood sweetheart, her wedding just a month away. Neither of them plans on falling in love. But sometimes the heart has a mind of its own.

The other man became her best friend.

Guitar wizard Rob MacKenzie doesn’t have Danny’s looks, or his charisma, or his sense of style. Tall and gaunt and bony, Rob isn’t a god, just an ordinary mortal, an easygoing guy who wants nothing more than to write his songs, play his guitar, and find the right woman. But life is never quite as simple as he’d like, and his search for Ms. Right keeps leading him down all the wrong roads.

When Rob MacKenzie and Casey Fiore begin writing songs together, the result is an unstoppable hit-making machine that catapults Danny Fiore to stardom. But the road to success is littered with land mines, and life with Danny isn’t all that Casey expected. Rivers of darkness run through her troubled marriage, and every time Danny breaks her heart, it’s Rob who picks her up, dusts her off, and glues the pieces back together.

When her world fell apart, she had to find herself.

It isn’t until she suffers an unimaginable loss that Casey begins to question who she is and what she really wants from life. As she searches for herself amid the wreckage, she discovers the bittersweet truth that the choices a woman makes at thirty can differ vastly from those she made at eighteen.

Chemistry
Robert Hodgson
5.0 Stars (8 Reviews)
Genre: Contemporary Fiction | Humor

FREE for a limited time

Francis is clever, successful and really rather nice, but he has a problem.

He has no idea how women think. He doesn’t know when they love him or why they sometimes hate him. So he turns to science for the answer and develops his own theory of how men and women react with each other.

His theory guides him through tortured adolescence and into perplexing manhood but fails to predict the outcome of his intense, passionate but mostly hapless relationships.

His quest to find the ultimate “oxygen” woman combines small triumphs with an unending litany of catastrophes until he is finally faced with the awful truth.

It’s a story about how men try to make sense of women, and mostly fail.

Francis’s story brings together the belief systems of all the people in his life and compels him to choose between them. It forces him to confront the question of whether his own theory is based on scientific rigor or is no better than the superstitions that he so despises.

It offers an alternative view of the concept of manhood in the 21st century and examines the conflicting patterns of life’s seeming predictability and spontaneity in a funny, thoughtful and at times, cringingly embarrassing story.

Oh…and it’s a comedy.

Welcome to the world of collapsing Communism. It is the eve of the fall of the Berlin Wall when people are still willing to risk all to cross the Iron Curtain to the West.
