Basic Brown
To The Washington Post, he's "The Last Political Showman of the 20th Century." Bill Clinton has called him "the real Slick Willie." Ronald Reagan's secretary of state George Shultz called this famously liberal politician "a man of his word" and endorsed his successful candidacy for mayor of San Francisco. Indeed Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton both called upon him for advice and help. He is Willie L. Brown, Jr., and he knows how to get things done in politics, how to work both sides of the aisle to get results. Compared to him, Machiavelli looks meek. And drab. In Basic Brown, this product of rural, segregated Texas and the urban black neighborhoods of San Francisco tells how he rose through ...
Ladies' Man

Recently divorced, it’s her summer of crazy indulgences—and when she meets Sam Schaefer, a New York police detective who’s much too handsome, much too smooth, and much, much too young, she doesn’t say no, thinking their steamy encounter in the back of a limo is one-and-done. But Sam knows what he likes and he wants more. And when he keeps calling, Ellen’s "Oh, yes" becomes a heartfelt "No way"—he’s funny, and smart, and pretty damn perfect, and she knows it won’t take much for her to fall for him, hard. (He’s too handsome, too smooth, and ridiculously young.) But when Ellen’s uncle starts getting threatening letters from a clearly unhinged and dangerous stalker, the NYPD is called in and of course Sam’s assigned the case. Ellen tries to avoid him, but he’s around day and night, and sparks start to fly... Set in 1997, Ladies’ Man is a full length novel of 54K words or 215 pages, originally published in 1997 by Bantam Loveswept.
