Liam's Lady
A riotously funny postmodern novel.
Liam O’Connor doesn’t know what hit him. It’s 1992, and his life’s sideways. Six years since his debut novel became a bestseller, five since he bailed New York for small town Wisconsin, he has yet to produce a follow-up. At forty-three, alone and befuddled, he hides his neuroses and insecurities behind a blustery façade that fools no one. Commitment-averse, he’s dated and left every divorcée in town. Then he meets Sylvia—a beer-loving, tattooed railroad worker, and she seems the perfect antidote.
So why not take a flyer on her? He met her at a nice dinner party. What could possibly go wrong?

A BOOK WITH EMOTIONAL DEPTH AND HUMOR
"The book is a masterpiece in telling the story of a successful author who is suffering from anxiety about his unsatisfactory love life. With many twists and turns, he reaches a fork in the road that will define the likely outcome to this dilemma. The book is rich with humor mixed with the drama that the protagonist faces in determining what his outcome will be. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough."
CRINGEWORTHY FUN!
"This is an enjoyable romp through life with a 40ish male, who albeit a successful writer, has still yet to come to terms with “growing up”. He leads with his instincts, often with cringeworthy results. Whether it’s mindless actions or the dreaded foot-in-mouth disease, the author has captured them here with great hilarity. Enjoy."
