Jane and Dexter Flynn were an ordinary couple
living on the fringes of Hollywood. Jane longed to be more. She
convinced her hapless husband to take her out on the town so she could
rub elbows with the rich and famous. She certainly got more than she
bargained for. It was during their dinner at Hollywood’s fashionable
Brown Derby she fell under the spell of Sergio and Electra Nike, one of
the wealthiest and most powerful couples on earth. From there, Jane
meets Alexander Nike, the power couples teen age son, and the story
escalates causing a total transformation from plain Jane to the ultimate
milf. It was lust, love, and adventure as the couple travels the world
seeking new thrills and adventures. There journey hits a snag in Rome
just when things were heating up and Jane finds herself alone and
desperate. Will the Nike family rescue her? Will her young lover abandon
her? This is both a love story and cautionary tale. Remember,
everything that glitters is not gold.
I was born in Texas, but moved around a lot because
my father was in the oil business. My teen years were spent in California,
where I was the poster boy for bad boys.
I played drums in a band called, ‘Brand X’.
I surfed. I smoked, drank, and chased women. I was pretty good at it.
The chasing women part anyway.
I did my time at Cerritos College where they handed me my first
college degree. I now have a couple more. One from UNLV in marketing and
another from NYU in journalism.
Next, I spent a few years in law enforcement, before flipping
to the dark side where I worked in a casino , (Caesars’ Palace) thanks to my
father’s connections to the owner, the late Jay Sarno. It was there I found my
niche.
A few years ago, I decided I wanted to be a writer. More
specifically, a writer of erotica. I figured I might as well put my dirty mind
to work. I’ve sold stories to Hustler, Penthouse, and Bitch magazines thru the
years and their dough was good. The perks weren’t bad, either. I’ll let you
think about that.
My inspiration comes from anything; a sight, a sound, a smell,
a neatly turned phrase I hear on TV or radio, kids playing in a park, or simply
draw something from my real life and suddenly, I have a story!
You can also find me under my pen name, Garrett Carkos on
Amazon.

I was born in Arkansas, played in Louisiana, and lived in Texas. Mostly in a small border town called Texarkana. It’s just about a mile from here to there. And you still aren’t anywhere. It’s the kind of town in which you can stand on the steps of a Baptist church and lob a rock across State Line Road to hit the front door of the liquor store. No matter how many roads you take to get out of there, it’s the kind of town that just hangs in your soul, coloring everything you do or think or say. Kind of like the small Texas town you’ll read about in A Home for Wayward Husbands. A Home for Wayward Husbands is about people surviving with the odds all against them. There’s some romance, some sex and a bit of mystery. The folks in this book are trying to keep secrets from each other and everyone knows you can’t keep a good secret in a small town. Not in any I’ve ever lived in anyway. I live with a dog and my imagination.
