Book Description
2nd Lt. Peter Bonano (Pete) is awestruck by what lay before him. It was Thursday afternoon, May 24, 1945- sixteen days after Germany surrendered. A fortune in gold and silver (bullion and coins), along with a huge stockpile of currencies from several nations (including US currencies) was arranged on the polished floors of a heavily guarded large gymnasium inside an isolated log building in the vicinity of Bad Tolz, Germany. He had been transported to this place from Erlangen, Germany by two 3rd Army OSS (Office of Strategic Services) officers from General Patton's headquarters in Regensburg. On the 23rd (one day earlier) the two OSS officers had with them a TDY (Temporary Duty) order for Lt. Bonano. The Special Order, dated May 23, 1945, was signed by the Commander of the the Third US Army, Gen. George Patton, Jr. Major Haensel, the OSS officer in charge of the cache, told Pete that he was to make a cursory inventory of the contents of cache, after which he would be in charge of a special convoy to deliver this to safe quarters. He was also told that Pete would be confined to this building until the inventory was completed. The strangeness of this assignment continued to grow with each new day. However, the most startling aspect of this mission was that, after making a cursory inventory of the captured Nazi loot, he was placed in charge of a secret convoy to deliver this treasure to a new location. To Pete's surprise/amazement, the new location turned out to be an isolated castle on the Nekar River which was occupied and guarded by OSS operatives. The author, with whom Pete confided, concluded, after intensive investigation that this was an OSS Sting operation which was clandestinely facilitated by General Patton. This documentary follows America's greatest General, George Patton, Jr., from 1940 to Dec 1945. Patton's triumphs and ordeals from North Africa and Sicily- including infamous slapping incidents which (the author contends) drastically changed world history. It is also a heart warming story about a Los Angeles draftee who rose in rank from Private to 2nd Lieutenant, and who, in the waning days of his five years in the Army, became embroiled in an intriguing OSS Nazi Gold adventure. The story follows Patton from Normandy to the eastern borders of Nazi Germany- covering major events such as: Charles de Gaulle rescuing Paris and France from communism, and a chattel in Roosevelt's New World Order; Montgomery's ill-fated Market Garden; the Battle of Bastogne; Crossing the Rhine; the Hammelburg incident; and the discovery of the Nazi loot hidden in the saltmines at Merkers on the same day that FDR dies at Warm Springs, Georgia. Eighteen days later Hitler commits suicide with the war petering out over the following eight days. However, life remained volatile for Patton as he facilitated a rogue OSS Nazi-gold operation-- an operation which, as intended, would have been a nonevent if Peter Bonano (who was involved at the insistence of Patton, and who maintained a meticulous set of records) had not been included in the operation. The story concludes with the stage being set by Patton's new enemies (the progressive left led by Secretary of Treasury, Henry Morgenthau) which ultimately ended with the firing of Patton as the commander of the Third Army, and shortly thereafter, his death in Heidelberg.

Book Description
The conclusion to this riveting dark Mafia series. Zafira Guzun The Guzun Matriarch, or Comare, as everyone in the Bratva world called me. A name I earned as the wife of one of the most respected Bratva leaders ever. After his death, I stepped back, preferring to leave the hard decisions to my children… or so everyone thought. Betrayal is a hard pill to swallow. This time, it turned sideways in my throat. Now, I’m being suffocated by those I loved and trusted unconditionally. No more… It is time they suffered the consequences. Bogdan Rusu The ubiytsa smerti or the death slayer, as everyone in the Bratva called me. A moniker I earned as the advisor to the Pakhan of the Guzun Bratva. I’m respected because I’m a nice guy… but I’m feared more because I have no mercy. Keeping Zafira Guzun safe has been my priority since her husband passed away. It hasn’t been easy, especially since she meant more to me than being my boss. She was my heart… except she didn’t trust me, and that hurt… deeply. In the end, only one thing mattered… Who needs to forgive, and who needs to make amends… or will pride and hard-headedness be their undoing? Note: Although the blurb is in 1st POV, the book is written in 3rd POV. This series must be read in order because if you thought you knew how it’s going to end... you’re wrong.

Book Description
Book 2 in the Club Decadent Skies series is the journey of Jax Crowthorne and Ciska Farlow. My name is Ciska Farlow, and I have just about had enough of the apeshit life I’ve been given. It’s time I take charge and guide my destiny in the direction it is supposed to go. First, I’m not your everyday IT geek. Been there, done that… yeah, I even did the time… behind bars, but that’s neither here nor there. I’m clean now, even working a respectable job. Second, I detest city slickers, men who believe their perfect jawlines cause women’s legs to flop open. Not this girl, hell no, and definitely not for the likes of one alpha-hole, Jax Crowthorne. The damn man believes he’s a gift to all women. Well, I’ve got news for him… I’m Jax Crowthorne, billionaire and property developer extraordinaire. I live large. I love women… in a magnitude of variety. Why not? They love me, too. Besides, I can afford it, right? Except, I’m bored… out of my skull. It’s time some kind of shift happened in what is becoming a mundane life. I need more… maybe a woman. My own woman, one I can weave in my own personal web at Club Decadent Skies aboard the GoldenEye II Airbus. And I know just which one to target. Caught in the cusp of a power struggle with a mafia group gearing up to use my company as cover to register all their shell companies, I am forced to reconsider the fragile relationship I’m threading with a very resistant and snippy blonde— especially when the ghosts from her past threatened her life and me into losing everything. Note: Although the blurb is in 1st POV, the book is written in 3rd POV. All books in this series are standalone novels. If you’re ready for the flight of a lifetime with a suspenseful back storyline that tests each couple’s trust and resilience, then this is the series for you. An exclusive BDSM club with a difference… in the skies, inside a luxurious Airbus jet. A mile-high club that will make you wish they sold air miles online! If you have a dark side that needs an outlet, Club Decadent Skies is where you go. If you’re a fan of my other Club Cove and Castle Sin series, then this is for you.
