Basic Training
Major Hennessy has seen it all, from the conflict in Korea to challenges in raising children on random army bases. Now, he's reflecting on the three substantial victories in his life--Faith, Mark, and Kyle. Basic Training is the compilation of their tales. Previously available only in electronic format, these three steamy stories have now been combined into a paperback collection! Included are the tales...
Blue Making Noise
Faith Hennessy, a youth counselor, is experiencing a summer drought, which has nothing to do with the weather. Her would-be boyfriend/sometime musician Shontae has been making and breaking plans for months, her career demands the wardrobe of a kindergartner, and over-wrought with sexual frustration, she threatens to wear out her Vibralux. Musicians can't commit, and at long last, she's quitting them. When faced with the opportunity to live out an old fantasy with four high school friends and a backstage pass, however, Faith rediscovers the woman she used to be. Apple Pie
Mark Hennessy, minor league ballplayer, has troubles including an ailing father, a do-good sister on the verge of a nervous breakdown, and a ne'er-do-well younger brother who's in trouble with the law...and with an MP Captain's daughter. Mark ought to go home to Chicago, to help his family in their time of need. Doing so means forfeiting his baseball dreams. But when Catherine Ramsay-Hart appears in Clearwater, Florida, scouting out a replacement third baseman, however, it appears his dreams have been answered…in more ways than one. Frenchin'
Kyle Hennessy turned over a new leaf when he transferred to Lake Superior State College. Committed to his studies and determined to prove his worth to his family, he's sworn off partying and random girls. With the help of his conscience, a cartoon cow affectionately known as The Beef, Kyle hopes to stay on the straight and narrow. But it's hard to be good when a siren of a (married) professor taunts him from the blackboard...especially when befriending Madame Venet--who can teach him more than French--might save his sister Faith the heartbreak of the century.
