Here’s the set-up:

Alejandro Mohammed Cuchulain, called Cooch or Alex, became a Marine at sixteen and a CIA special-operations trainee at 17. His father is a wheel-chair bound former Marine and Medal of Honor winner who gives Alex advice as to how to survive in a violent world. His mother is the daughter of a Bedouin sheikh who sends a young Alex off, during his summer breaks, to experience the Bedouin life. The combination of a very young start in learning the art and craft of violence, combined with a thirst for knowledge combine to help him to become both a noted designer and user of explosives and an expert in Islamic affairs. Violent, yet thoughtful, Cooch represents the best in fast-moving, popular thrillers.

5 Star Amazon Review

I enjoy a fast paced action thriller and Cooch delivers. Cooch is a very educated, physically strong, highly trained special-ops hero. Bob Cook provides details and nuances that give Cooch and the supporting characters credibility. This is the kind of read that makes you wonder who will play Cooch in the movie. If Vin Diesel got a PHD or Matt Damon plumbed iron for 6-months, they could qualify.

Sweet Thing

by Renee Carlino

Here’s the set-up:

Mia Kelly is a twenty-five-year-old walking Gap ad who thinks she has life figured out when her father’s sudden death uproots her from slow-paced Ann Arbor to New York City’s bustling East Village. There she discovers her father’s spirit for life and the legacy he left behind with the help of an old café, a few eccentric friends, and one charming musician.

Will Ryan is good-looking, poetic, spontaneous, and on the brink of fame when he meets Mia, his new landlord, muse, and personal heartbreaker.

A story of self-discovery and friendship, Sweet Thing shines light on the power of loving and letting go.

5-star acclaim from Amazon readers:

 

Brilliant! 5+ stars
“What a wonderful find! It is rare and hard to explain when you find a story that speaks to you intimately the way this one did to me. …It has that “something special that you can’t quite put your finger on” about it …

Divine
“Absolutely wonderful! What an unbelievable first book…. The storyline is perfect, the characters are so well developed that you feel like they are part of you. The way the author combined many forms if art, from music, to poetry, to visual arts all added to the depth of the story. I didn’t want it to end.”

Charmed, and then some!
“A rare one indeed! You had me at Prologue!… what a beautifully written story! … the dialogue (impeccable writing), character development ( flaws and all), and most importantly, strong story line ( believable)…this book has it all. Love, heartbreak, love, and heartbreak, and ahh,love again – Love of all kinds – Romance, friendship, parental, animal. Bravo!”

Amazingly unexpected!
“Let me start by saying this book was nothing like I was expecting. It was sweet perfection. …it made me laugh, cry, smile and made my heart FEEL for these characters…”

About The Author
Renee’s first friends were the imaginary kind and even though her characters haven’t gone away, thankfully the delusions have. She admits she’s a wildly hopeless romantic and she blames 80’s movies starring Molly Ringwald
for that.She lives in Southern California with her husband, two sons, and their sweet dog June. When she’s not at the beach with her boys or working on the next book, she likes to spend her time reading, going to concerts, and eating dark chocolate. This is her first novel.For more about Renee Carlino and her work, please visit her website.

An Alejandro “Cooch” Cuchulain Novel
The second in the Cooch series of national security techno-thrillers

Blend a dollop of Enlightenment history and philosophy for the lawyers and history buffs, a skosh of cool technology for the geekish, and a smidgen of business for the Wall Street crowd. Add to a boiling cauldron of passion and violence. Sprinkle with strong dialog and wit. Stir vigorously. Shazaam! Tomorrow’s headlines today, in Patriot and Assassin.

Patriot and Assassin places the protagonist, Alejandro ‘Cooch’ Cuchulain, at the heart of a plot to release nerve gas in one of our nation’s busiest stadiums, then later into the sadistic hands of the terrorist who planned that attack.

Cooch leads a Rhodes Scholar former Seal, a stunning MacArthur winning physicist, a former USMC Master Sniper and the former director of the CIA’s special operations unit, now working in the White House. Together, they engage a large contingent of Al-Qaeda, among others, while working to improve the life of Muslims.

Inspired by Arab Spring evidence that Middle Eastern culture will be transformed positively when Muslims are convinced that transformation is in their self-interest, Patriot and Assassin uses the proven lessons of the Enlightenment to expedite that transformation. More than simply sex and violence advance the story. Patriot and Assassin incorporates strong character development and powerful, thoughtful dialogue to drive this politico-thriller at a breakneck pace.

The team neither disdains violence on this journey to improve, nor avoids using the latest technology to make both the journey and the violence easier. Action flows seamlessly from Texas to Washington to Morocco to Yemen and back.
Former CIA warrior Cuchulain is a strong male protagonist working with a dynamic female protagonist in Dr. Caitlin O’Connor. This thriller brings a fresh dynamic to the genre. Patriot and Assassin positions itself as the thriller for thoughtful readers interested in observing strong, complex characters meeting complex world-wide challenges.

5-Star Amazon Reviews

“I highly recommend this book, not just as a thriller (and a good one at that), but also as a window into the near future.”

“If you like to get lost in another world this is a book for you, the characters and settings are described so vividly it’s easy to imagine being there. Couldn’t put it down.”

Violent, yet thoughtful, Cooch represents the best in fast-moving, popular thrillers.

What the Reviewers Say
“The author’s business and military background, combined with his extensive travel, makes him an insider when it comes to international security issues… The details, events, and world situations are right from the front page of today’s newspapers. I have a short attention span, so the accelerated pace of this plot kept me glued.”
–Stephen M.

“I found the title character, Cooch to be an interesting blend of Mitch Rapp (Vince Flynn) and Lucas Davenport (John Sandford’s Prey series). He gets difficult assignments protecting the US against terrorism, but he also has a broad educational background and approaches problems thoughtfully… This is a very fast paced adventure with well-developed characters with whom I was able to identify. It was hard to put this book down.”
–Bob Bressler
