HEATHCLIFF: THE LOST YEARS
Heathcliff: The Lost Years is the untold story of the famous literary character Heathcliff, who left his home in Wuthering Heights and was away for three mysterious years.
He left Wuthering Heights as a beaten-down, penniless orphan, with a broken heart. Three years later, he returned as a rich and ruthless gentleman.
Heathcliff never told anyone at Wuthering Heights about the experiences which so startled and transformed him.
Heathcliff: The Lost Years is the thundering, never-before-told epic buried in the heart of Wuthering Heights. It is a story of a man haunted by love. It's a romantic adventure that takes the reader to the rough and tumble seaport of Liverpool, on a slave ship to Africa, to harrowing adventures and a mutiny at sea, to the fleshpots and slave auctions of colonial Jamaica, and finally to London. It is here that he encounters the beautiful woman who makes him a proposition which forever changes his life.

INTRODUCING THE RICHEST FAMILY IN AMERICA
In the dry California hills above the fashionable village of Montecito, slipping in and out of their enormous mansions on Swizzle Stick Road, a family of wealthy eccentrics has managed to put itself under siege.
In Introducing the Richest Family in America, a crooked lawyer, a beautiful Chinese pro golfer, and a celebrity-mad plastic surgeon conspiring to convince the family patriarch to move his manufacturing plants from the U.S. to China.
As the conspiracy clicks into place, the beautiful pro golfer cynically romances the old billionaire across Europe. But their ditzy and manipulative continent-hopping romp from Paris to Shanghai catches the attention of the black sheep of the family, a gay man, and he vows to stop it.
What follows is a brutally funny comedy of grandiose intentions, half-baked revenge, and heroic upper crust foolishness seasoned with a bit of cross-cultural romance. As old money collides with new, Introducing the Richest Family in America runs a knee-slapping gauntlet of greed, betrayal and desire as America’s richest family teeters precariously on the edge of dissolution, and almost tumbles in.
"Totally REFRESHING! ...gave me some of the best laughs I had all winter!"
--Deb Fowler, Amazon Top 100 Reviewer
