STAR books Press is proud to announce the release of "Michael's Secrets"
by Milton Stern
The
Girls from ON TUESDAYS, THEY PLAYED MAH JONGG are back in MICHAEL'S SECRETS
by MILTON STERN.
Just
when things are looking up for Hollywood television and screen writer, Michael
Bern, his TV show is cancelled, his best friend dies face first into her birthday
cake, and his dog decides to take an eternal nap in her favorite chair. To escape
the unending drama of Tinsel Town, he accepts an offer to move to Washington,
DC, and co-write a screenplay with his friend, Sharon. But, anyone who knows
Michael knows that drama just follows him everywhere, and it is usually of his
own making.
He
meets and falls in love with Steve, a narcissistic "leather queen in a
sash," as his friend Mark calls him. The sex is hot, but it is followed
by the emotional game of push-pull. Just when Michael extricates himself from
this relationship, he finds out the darkest secret from his childhood, and emotionally
raw, he allows himself to be pulled back into Steve's world only to fall harder
than ever. But, there is someone else - Sam, a nice Jewish actor, who would
be perfect for Michael, yet it's the oldest story in the book. He liked a man
he never loved and loved a man he never liked.
At least Rona and
Doreen, the surviving girls from his mother's Tuesday night Mah Jongg game,
are there to add much needed humor to Michael's oh-so-dramatic life in DC. Now
living together, Rona and Doreen reveal secrets from Michael's past that explain
his attraction to men who use him then discard him.
If it all sounds
dreary and depressing, it isn't because MILTON STERN's wit and style entertain
us once more as he finds humor in everything, and in MICHAEL'S SECRETS, he does
not fail to deliver.
This book is intended
for adult audiences.
