LANA TURNER
The Sweater Girl. Hollywoods OTHER Most Notorious Blonde
LANA TURNER! Celluloid Venus and Sex Nymph to the G.I.s who won World War II.
Her Full Story Has Never Been Told. UNTIL NOW!
Lana Turner was the most scandalous, most copied, and most gossiped-about actress in Hollywood. When her abusive Mafia lover was murdered in her house, every newspaper in the Free World described the murky dramas with something approaching hysteria.
Blood Moons salacious but empathetic new biography exposes the public and private dramas of the girl who changed the American definition of what it REALLY means to be a blonde. Heres how CALIFORNIA BOOKWATCH and THE MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW described the mega-celebrity whose adventures, passions, and anguish have never before been comprehensively reviewed in a full-length biography. UNTIL NOW!
Lana Turner: Hearts and Diamonds Take All belongs on the shelves of any collection strong in movie star biographies in general and Hollywood evolution in particular, and represents no lightweight production, appearing on the 20th anniversary of Lana Turners death to provide a weighty survey packed with new information about her life.
One would think that just about everything to be known about The Sweater Girl would have already appeared in print, but it should be noted that Lana Turner: Hearts and Diamonds Take All offers many new revelations not just about Turner, but about the movie industry in the aftermath of World War II.
From Lanas introduction of a new brand of covert sexuality in womens movies to her scandalous romances among the stars, her extreme promiscuity, her search for love, and her notorious flings - even her involvement in murder - are all probed in a revealing account of glamour and movie industry relationships that bring Turner and her times to life.
Some of the greatest scandals in Hollywood history are intricately detailed on these pages, making this much more than another survey of her life and times, and a must have pick for any collection strong in Hollywood history in general, gossip and scandals and the real stories behind them, and Lana Turners tumultuous career, in particular.

DONALD TRUMP IS THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING
This is the most famous book about our President youve probably never heard of.
Winner of three respected literary awards, this is an entertainingly packaged, artfully salacious bombshell of a book, a world-class first, a post-recession overview of America during its 2016 election cycle, a portrait unlike anything ever published on Americas President-Elect and the climate in which he thrived.
Its release during the heat and venom of the Presidential campaign has already been heralded by the Midwestern Book Review, California Book Watch, the Seattle Gay News, the staunchly right-wing WILS-AMradio, and also by the editors at the most popular Seniors magazine in Florida, BOOMER TIMES, which designated it as their September choice for BOOK OF THE MONTH.
TRUMPOCALYPSE: Donald Trump: The Man Who Would Be King is recommended reading for all sides, no matter what political stance is being adopted: Republican, Democrat, or other.
One of its driving forces is its ability to synthesize an unbelievable amount of information into a format and presentation which blends lively irony with outrageous observations, entertaining even as it presents eye-opening information in a format accessible to all.
Politics dovetail with American obsessions and fascinations with trends, figureheads, drama, and sizzling news stories, but blend well with the observations of sociologists, psychologists, politicians, and others in a wide range of fields who lend their expertise and insights to create a much broader review of the Trump phenomena than a more casual book could provide.
The result is a must read for any American interested in issues of race, freedom, equality, and justiceand for any non-American who wonders just what is going on behind the scenes in this countrys latest election debacle.

HOW MUCH DO ANY OF YOU REALLY KNOW ABOUT THE REAGANS?
THIS BOOKS TELLS EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SHOW-BIZ SCANDALS THEY DESPERATELY WANTED TO FORGET.
LOVE TRIANGLE
RONALD REAGAN, JANE WYMAN, & NANCY DAVIS
Unique in the history of publishing, this scandalous triple biography focuses on the Hollywood indiscretions of former U.S. president Ronald Reagan and his two wives. A proud and Presidential addition to Blood Moons Babylon series, it digs deep into what these three young and attractive movie stars were doing decades before two of them took over the Free World.
As reviewed by Diane Donovan, Senior Reviewer at the California Bookwatch section of the Midwest Book Review: Love Triangle: Ronald Reagan, Jane Wyman & Nancy Davis may find its way onto many a Republican Reagan fans reading shelf; but those who expect another Reagan celebration will be surprised: this is lurid Hollywood expos writing at its best, and outlines the truths surrounding one of the most provocative industry scandals in the world.
There are already so many biographies of the Reagans on the market that one might expect similar mile-markers from this: be prepared for shock and awe; because Love Triangle doesnt take your ordinary approach to biography and describes a love triangle that eventually bumped a major Hollywood movie star from the possibility of being First Lady and replaced her with a lesser-known Grade B actress (Nancy Davis).
From politics and betrayal to romance, infidelity, and sordid affairs, Love Triangle is a steamy, eye-opening story that blows the lid off of the Reagan illusion to raise eyebrows on both sides of the big screen.
Black and white photos liberally pepper an account of the careers of all three and the lasting shock of their stormy relationships in a delightful pursuit especially recommended for any who relish Hollywood gossip.
In 2015, LOVE TRIANGLE, Blood Moon Productions overview of the early dramas associated with Ronald Reagans scandal-soaked career in Hollywood, was designated by the Awards Committee of the HOLLYWOOD BOOK FESTIVAL as Runner-Up to Best Biography of the Year.
