Book Description
The rules are simple: unattached companionship, toe-curling sex and a clean break whenever it ends. Darby's groundbreaking medical research will launch her into career stardom. Michael's status as an architectural wunderkind will send him to a far-flung locale. Either one can say the single word that will break it off: Snapdragon.But soul-deep sex is just the beginning. Michael becomes a fierce ally against her misogynist boss, a light to chase away the shadow of her notorious father, and the antidote to her crushing loneliness. And Darby must fight hard not to fall in love. After all, choosing love over ambition is the one thing she said she'd never do. And their wayward feelings may not change Michael's endgame. So she'll walk the tightrope of their relationship, even though she fears the fall may kill her. For people like them, love doesn't always conquer all.GET READY TO FALL IN LOVE WITH SNAPDRAGONDeeply meaningful, desperately sexual, and inevitably bittersweet, Snapdragon deals with the quandary of choosing love over career, the weight of adulthood and the complexity of modern work-life. It rewrites the book on what a 21st century relationship should look like and keeps the reader wondering how it will end.

Book Description
Prior to Phil Stern's death on December 13, 2014, his original, unfinished, tattered wartime memoir was discovered, stashed away in an old folio box in his cluttered Hollywood bungalow. Best remembered for his iconic images of James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, and JFK's inauguration, his remarkable service during World War II as a combat photographer with Darby's Rangers has remained largely unknown. Until now. Stern's catchy 1940s lingo, honest and intimate observations, and humor, paired with his striking combat photography, transport the reader 70 years back in time to meet the hardscrabble Rangers and experience some of the key battles of the Mediterranean Theater. Snapdragon is an artifact of that time, told not by a man reminiscing in his twilight years, but by a young soldier fresh from the battlefields.
