My latest fiction title Smoking on Mount Rushmore: 16 New and Selected Stories has an Uncle Sam-themed title resonating with July 4th if you're doing some reading before the festivities and fireworks kick off. The title story is about Cerise and Derek, a young married couple who decide to have a last trip/fling before he ships out with us military unit to serve overseas. Derek picks Mount Rushmore as their destination, and off they go on a lark. He wants it to be a memorable trip and suggests Cerise perform a patriotic striptease for him on Mount Rushmore. She reluctantly agrees.
Of course, they run into a few problems along the way, threatening to keep Derek from having his fun before he has to leave the U.S. Readers at Goodreads and Amazon have enjoyed [book:Smoking on Mount Rushmore: 16 Selected & New Short Stories|17228169] for the diversity and freshness of its short fiction offerings.
