Beschreibung

A kind heart is a dangerous thing to possess in the raw, power hungry, bubbling cauldron known as Silicon Valley. Beautiful Camille Baptiste has a heart of gold, but she's no push-over. She is a seductive mixture of strength and vulnerability. She believes a successful life means having the love and support of her two best friends. Tiara Blake… Vain, ambitious, and possesses an alluring charm that men can't resist. Eris Simeon… Born into a life of wealth, but underneath it all, she has a matcher's heart. Delmar Devereaux… Arrogant, and ruthless. He believes he's irresistible to women. His arrogant mask hides a deeper passion. Eris' ambitious matchmaking plans go astray when the matchmaking legend herself, Glenda D'Goodwrench-Jackson, gets into the picture and trips up everyone's plans. What could be worse than best friends fighting over who loves you best? And who has your best interest at heart when spell bounding immortal matchmaker's machinations are drawn into the picture? Brazenly, the Mistress of Desire unleashes a torrent scandal of treachery and deceit that shatters the illusions of happiness for everyone. Discover, as four lives are intertwined into an ambitious game forged by betrayal and deceit where sex, love, and hate are only the means to an end. Better know your friends or you might get burned.

Autor

Researching and writing From Mail to Mountain was a labor of love for the author. Utilizing skills he developed through simultaneous public careers in the military, municipal firefighting, and as a university adjunct instructor, Mr. Jackson creatively relates the story of his father's service in the 10th Mountain Division during World War II in Italy. John's ability to draw readers in and hold their attention while relating the events during the division's Apennine Mountains and Po Valley campaigns establishes him as a highly skilled author.John's military career spanned twenty-eight years, including four years in the United States Air Force, followed by twenty-four years in the Army Reserve. Following his retirement in 2009 as a Master Sergeant (E-8), John worked for the Army Staff at the Pentagon for five years. During his military service and while working for Army Operations, John wrote and contributed to a range of documents including Army policies, intelligence reports, and NATO standards. As a decorated reservist, John supported the Army's European Command, including a one-year mobilization tour following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and later served a second tour at the Defense Intelligence Agency. John's love of history, respect for his father and others who have served, and close family ties inspired him to write From Mail to Mountain.While rising through the ranks as a municipal fire fighter, John became a state certified fire service trainer, later engaging in curriculum development and training for hazardous materials, terrorism, and emergency management for the State of Michigan. He served as a captain and interim chief before retiring from the fire service in 2008 as a Deputy Chief. John also pursued his Master's Degree in Human Resource Development (Leadership) and went on to teach business and leadership courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Eventually, utilizing his many years of experience, he became the Program Manager for an undergraduate public services degree program and transitioned the program to an online offering.Additional information about John and his book can be found at www.mailtomountain.com.
