Why Does Breaking Up Have To Be So Painful?
Announcing the release of Leander Jackie Grogan's long-awaited, gut-wrenching comedy, Baby, Put That Gun Down.
Online, April 3, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Why does breaking up have to be so painful? In Leander Jackie Grogan's hilarious new novel, Baby, Put That Gun Down, Attorney Bobby Felton Frazier poses this profound and somewhat convoluted question. After being shot, cut and scaled with hot grits, he has the right to know.
Baby, Put That Gun Down is a wacky, quick-humored roller coaster ride over the Georgia Pines, through the Louisiana Cajun-infested swamps, and into the awaiting arms of the double-dealing, gun-running, pot-peddling, throat-slashing Honey Ho motorcycle gang. They might keep things simple and mow him down with an AK-47; or even worse, choke him to death with a yard of tongue. After all, women have the right to change their minds.
"In all my books, I try to make sure there are multiple sub-plots undergirding the precarious, unpredictable characters in the storyline," says Grogan. "When readers (especially Baby Boomers) meet Shaft's white step-daddy, the one-eyed monkey, and the 300-pound Joe Millionaire bride, they'll realize this book passes the litmus test with flying colors."
In the end, the story is about the awkward quest for companionship in a contemporary world of disappointing relationships, and the ultimate reward of finding love in the eye of the storm. Every reader that has loved and lost and even won in the eHarmony, Match.com crapshoot called dating will see the flickering light of hope beckoning them to open their heart and climb aboard the old romance bus one more time.
