Book Description
Luke believes in a quote he found in one of his favorite author’s book—that if you want something so bad, the universe will conspire to help you get it. Luke must have wanted to find love so much that Eureka, the girl of his dreams and the heroine of his favorite book, comes to life and falls in love with him. There is just one catch: Once Eureka reaches the end of her book’s storyline in the real world, then her story with Luke will end, too. Will the universe conspire to help the starcrossed lovers find true happiness with each other? One thing is for sure, Luke will do everything he can to keep Eureka forever.

Book Description
A hardboiled novel about life in the American underground, from the pool halls of Portland to the cells of San Quentin. Simply one of the finest books ever written about being down on your luck. Don Carpenter’s Hard Rain Falling is a tough-as-nails account of being down and out, but never down for good—a Dostoyevskian tale of crime, punishment, and the pursuit of an ever-elusive redemption. The novel follows the adventures of Jack Levitt, an orphaned teenager living off his wits in the fleabag hotels and seedy pool halls of Portland, Oregon. Jack befriends Billy Lancing, a young black runaway and pool hustler extraordinaire. A heist gone wrong gets Jack sent to reform school, from which he emerges embittered by abuse and solitary confinement. In the meantime Billy has joined the middle class—married, fathered a son, acquired a business and a mistress. But neither Jack nor Billy can escape their troubled pasts, and they will meet again in San Quentin before their strange double drama comes to a violent and revelatory end.
