Produktbeschreibung
Mystery-romance novel, 292 pages, softcover. Millennial Carlos Almarón struggles past the devastating and unexpected loss of his recent lover, who dumped him the night he was to propose marriage to her. Unable to bring him back to battery, most of his Manhattan jet-set friends abandon him. Three women aim to help his recovery for different reasons: One is rebounding from the recent death of her husband after a long illness, another senses a predestined, romantic liaison, and Carmela Ariana, his childhood tomboy friend, walks among the wounded-in-love after abuses nearly shattered her hope of finding everlasting love. (Ariana alone knows why Almarón's lover rejected him and what happened to her. She fears that telling her longtime friend would push him away forever.) Almarón's road to recovery brings a series of haphazard events, but only after he traverses a tightrope of daydreams and nightmares that take him as far back as the 11th century and to sexual escapades with himself and would-be lovers in his pubescent and early collegiate years. The process helps him learn what he cherishes most about men and women and his closest friend, Ariana. After Carlos and Carmela come to understand that true love requires a spiritual connection, Cupid takes them beyond their wildest dreams. Love's arrows strike them when and where they least expect it! If finding everlasting love means facing intimate truths about ourselves no matter how hard or strange, Almarón's and Ariana's story teaches us how to trust peace and love. We all seek the kind of romance these two hapless lovers crave. Everyone faces the same challenge in the war of the sexes: how to rise above the fray and win love against all odds (or fail in the attempt). The winding road that takes Almarón and Ariana by surprise time after time makes Ruined by Murder Addicted to Love a surprisingly wonderful, emotional roller-coaster, five-star read!
Autorenporträt
In his words, 'Internationally published author, biographer, novelist, and ghostwriter sounds fancy, but I'm simply a professional author with skills and a mission to write entertaining, uplifting stories for my readers' enjoyment. People tell me, 'You paint emotional pictures with your words.' Well, I write what I see in front of me, adding imagination where it improves the story. Growing up in a cramped household, competing for personal space among seven brothers and sisters, two parents, (most times) at least one good hunting dog, and a score of kids living on our block, I learned how to hold my ground, at times from a perch 30 feet up in my favorite tree in the woods behind our house. Born in Bogota, Colombia, of Polish-immigrant coal miner and blue-blooded Colombian-Chilean parentage, Kule came to appreciate ethnic values and cultural differences by observing the disparate social classes and living conditions of Colombia, Peru, Chile, Panama, the 48 contiguous American states and Hawaii, Canada, Sweden, Denmark, England, Holland, Germany, France, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy, Japan, Russia, mainland China, Barbados, St. Lucia, and St. Vincent directly. His heritage paint-brushed wanderlust onto his life canvas: he has performed speaking engagements in 17 countries. He laughs often and can experience a panorama of emotions just for fun, but he prefers making other people smile, laugh, and generally feel happier after having met him or read his books. If you curl up with one of Kule's books and find yourself breathless, provoked, inspired, changed, and feeling like you just undertook an important journey that left you more than satisfied, he will consider his work as the author a success. The author's home is in Clearwater, Florida, but his passport yearns for more national stamps, and his bags can be packed at a moment's notice! Because the author also enjoyed a successful sales, sales management, and sales-training career spanning 39 years, he wrote up his successful actions and a uniquely different approach to selling in his acclaimed sales book series, LISTEN MORE SELL MORE.
