City of Red: Part 1
The Machetti Legacy: Book 1
I am extremely proud and honored to share my latest page turner with you. My close friends and family know how much work was put into getting this book ready for release and publication. I’m so excited to finally share City of Red: Part 1 with a wider audience and hope you enjoy it.
​
In 1940, Olivia Desantis gave birth to a child through infidelity. Wishing to remain with his wife, Michael forced Olivia to give her son away. Three decades later, that child, Alfonso Machetti, grows up to become a captain in the Scarlatti crime family. In one night, the Scarlatti family is murdered and Alfonso is exiled to a lawless prison. While incarcerated, Alfonso loses himself in the depths of his own madness, but when all seems lost, Alfonso's birth mother reaches out. She is dying, and wishes to see the son she abandoned one last time before it's too late. Follow Alfonso as he fights to regain all that he lost. How far would you go for family?
City of Red: Part 2
The Machetti Legacy: Book 2
Coming in 2020
It took me ten years to write and publish City of Red: Part 1. In contrast, it has taken nearly a year to write City of Red: Part 2. It will be published in May or June of 2020. That goes to show how much I’ve learned about publishing, writing, and myself in the last decade. In this book you will find Alfonso Machetti far better off than when you first met him. That’s short lived, however. A war with a ruthless gang called the Black Emperors threatens to end the Italian mob in New York. When Salvatore Urullio arrives on his doorstep Alfonso ends up betraying his current family for old loyalties and in doing so will destroy him and his entire life.
My Cleanse : A Poem Collection
I’ve been working on this latest release for quite some time now, and can’t wait for you to read it. This book first started out as a side project, but soon turned into a fascinating undertaking which I couldn’t stop thinking about or writing.
​
L. Love has crafted an anthology of poems that spans decades, hardships, nightmares, and love. Shattered but whole, she remains free as a bird. Turn the page and follow L. Love as she reveals herself through poetry and themes that only she cold create. Feel her pain. Feel her sacrifice. Feel her triumph. This is her cleanse.
Lovely Lucy Goes to School
Late 2020, early 2021
The first collaborative project for Chris and Lila is wonderful children’s picture book. Based on their daughter, Lucy, it will tell a beautiful story about how Lovely Lucy is scared to go to school on her first day ever. With illustrations by Bethany Evelyn Lovely Lucy Goes to School will be a hit with the kids and parents alike.
Several Years ago, Lila had the idea to write a series of books with each one based on her children. The first of four, Lovely Lucy Goes to School, was created. With help from her husband Chris, the story was completed. Told in rhyme, the humor flows and heartwarming moments are highlighted.
