FASCINATING BOOK BY AUTHOR GLEN AARON

The Observer: The Colonel George Trofimoff Story is the second nonfiction book in The Prison Trilogy by author, Glen Aaron. The author gives us an intimate look into the fascinating and sometimes tragic life of Colonel Trofimoff.  Aaron is a consummate storyteller, and I was amazed at his thoroughness. His skill as an attorney is apparent as he builds and organizes an enormous amount of in-depth material for the reader to absorb. Colonel Trofimoff, was America’s highest-ranking military officer to be convicted of spying for the Russian KGB. He was a victim of a complicated two-year long sting operation which resulted in what can only be termed as a travesty of justice. The author profiles the Colonel from the time he was a young boy during WWII through his conviction and ultimate incarceration for life in the year, 2000. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in a fascinating look at our flawed American justice system. 

A TRUE TALENT!

THE SWEET SPOT by Laura Drake!

The Sweet Spot is so much more than an ordinary romance book. The reader first meets Char and Jimmy "JB" Denny after they have lost their son in a tragic accident and divorced. Char can't forgive or forget that Jimmy was with a young girl after they separated. She must learn that she must forgive herself for turning him away before she can forgive him.

There are many serious and challenging issues which are dealt with in the book - Alzheimers disease, forgiveness, death, addiction, and love. This story was both sad and happy. I learned about the typical life on a Texas bull ranch as well as in a small town, but the real story revolved around Char and Jimmy.

I loved it when Char made an unlikely friend in Bella, a New York transplant, and then paraded her before all of her gossiping friends.I also loved it as I watched Jimmy show Char how much she meant to him and ultimately, when Char accepted him back into her life.

I loved the quotes at the beginning of each chapter and how they were perfectly suited to them. This book is definitely not a typical romance novel, and it was better for it. Laura Drake is a truly talented writer, and I am looking forward to the sequels of this book!
