Almost everyone who has been to a nightclub has seen him: the old
man in the club. He's the greying, balding loner looking totally
out of place. And everyone is wondering the same question, why is
he here?
There are some secrets that are better left that way... In this
gripping novel of twisted moral dilemmas, a man tries to save his
troubled marriage by taking a trip to Napa Valley after secretly
winning the lottery.
Paul Wall's marriage is in trouble. In addition to losing his job,
he loses all of his self-esteem, and soon his wife, Ginger, is as
unhappy as he is. However, when Paul wins millions of dollars in
the Georgia state lottery, he concocts a master plan to regain his
wife's love.
A passionate wine-drinker, Paul convinces Ginger to accompany him
on a trip to romantic Napa Valley, but Paul keeps his winnings a
secret; he wants to win her back on his own merits. Ginger insists
her mom, a recent widow, travels with them. Paul then insists his
mom, recently divorced, join them. This quartet of characters
travels together to California and, with the influx of wine
loosening their inhibitions, they end up revealing secrets better
left untold.
With controversial ethical dilemmas at its heart, "The Truth is in
the Wine" is a remarkable and riveting novel that will put you in
the characters' shoes, wondering what you'd do next if you had
millions of dollars to spend and a marriage and relationships to
save.
If you thought Las Vegas was where "what happens" stays, you have
not been to homecoming at a historically black college or
university, which means you have missed out. Until now, that is.
Curtis Bunn's novel, "Homecoming Weekend," provides readers a
provocative, engrossing and humorous journey to an HBCU campus for
those two days of reminiscing, partying, sex, romance, laughs and
even tears.
There is nothing quite like homecoming. It is a combination of a
massive family reunion and festival, a sentimental and reaffirming
annual experience that is laced with rekindled romances from years
gone by, weekend flings and surprising revelations. Bunn paints
high-definition images of the events as he takes you on the odyssey
of five sets of friends back at their alma mater seeking
satisfaction in different fashions. And while they arrive
anticipating one thing, they end up with realities that place them
in moral and ethical dilemmas--and the resolutions are as
satisfying as a warm embrace from a dear old friend.
Best of all, Bunn makes you feel like you are right there with the
characters-- or wish you were there.
