Book excerpt: "Tom Wolfe rewrites American Gigolo." - Kirkus Reviews Author Coerte V.W. Felske's Scandalocity comes on the heels of his highly-acclaimed "dolce vita fiction" trilogy: The Shallow Man, Word, and The Millennium Girl. Zeitgeist for the Information Age, the novel is set against the backdrop of the starry lights and glamorous nights of New York City. Defined as "The speed at which scandal, measured in velocity, can turn you into a star," Scandalocity is a sexy, ADHD psychological thriller, and the master of guilty pleasure prose takes on our technology-driven, media-consumed, and celebrity-obsessed culture in a taut, explosive narrative. Protagonist Harry Starslinger is a neurologically disordered online gossip columnist who becomes embroiled in the police investigation of his girlfriend's murder. Like Dostoevsky's Notes From Underground, the book takes off in roaring first-person as we ride Harry's spontaneous, insightful thoughts. One of the most connected men in the City, where his high-profile position as a purveyor of celebrity gossip offers him access anywhere, anytime, "Slinger" finds it difficult to founder life-sustaining connections in a rocket-paced world of IMs, iPods and e-mails, social networking sites, and hand-held techie toys. The story unfolds in parallel between the ongoing murder investigation and the burgeoning romance with the victim in the past. There's more murder, a manhunt, and Harry becomes the hunted one. A pulsating page-turner, the novel combines the scalding thematic tones of Odets and Lehman's The Sweet Smell of Success with the suspense and dramatic twists of Kasden's erotic cinema thriller Body Heat. Felske's fourth installment in his "dolce vita fiction" series, Scandalocity crackles with razor sharp vernacular and a lexicon's worth of bleeding edge phraseologies, hallmarks of the author's inimitable life-in-the-fast-lane literature. (The Dolce Vita Press, 2010) Front and back covers by Peter Beard featuring supermodel Irina Shayk on double-exposed Giant Polaroids, 2009 --------------------------------------------- ACCLAIM FOR THE WORKS OF COERTE V.W. FELSKE "The Shallow Man novel is crass, entertaining, slangy, and reeking of sun bronze and the fresh turnover of fleshy delights makes the narrator's decision to become an aging roue instead of a responsible adult seem like an honest, admirable choice. Felske writes like a gigolo and treats seduction as a dirty sport." -- James Wolcott, Vanity Fair "Model Citizen: the story of a man who never met a beautiful woman he didn't like." -- David Kelley, The New York Times Book Review "Favorite Novel: The Shallow Man by Coerte Felske which begins with the line 'I never met a model I didn't like.'" -- Candace Bushnell, Vogue "Coerte V.W. Felske's novel The Shallow Man turned the fashion world on its head-and introduced the term 'modelizer' into the collective consciousness." -- Detour "A Model Wordsmith." -- New York Magazine "In his first novel, The Shallow Man, Coerte V.W. Felske spins a clever tale of the narcissistic world of fashion modeling. Nick reminds us, "Never judge a book by its contents." Certainly not this book. It's fun, flash, and filigree--a sexy, witty spoof of the Nineties." -- Digby Diehl, Playboy "Shallow waters run deep. This stunning unreflective man knows more than you think. Reading the quick-witted prose one begins to think Nick Laws is like Hamlet without the mental baggage, tumbling Ophelia by Act II. Felske's The Shallow Man makes a case for the unexamined life." -- Esquire "Spiked with original Nickspeak and hilarious dialogue, Felske's depiction of the physically elite is so clever in its anthropological detail that we can forgive his protagonist for just about anything." -- People "PLAYBOY CENTERFOLD DATA SHEET, 'Favorite Book: "The Shallow Man" by Coerte Felske. It's about a very shallow man and his involvements with models.'" --Priscilla Lee Taylor, Miss March

Felske's novel The Shallow Man turned the fashion world on its head-and introduced the term 'modelizer' into the collective consciousness." -- Detour "A Model Wordsmith." -- New York Magazine "In his first novel, The Shallow Man, Coerte V.W. Felske spins a clever tale of the narcissistic world of fashion modeling. In this comic send-up, Nick Laws is the shallow man whose every thought and word reflect his sole interest in life: boffing models. From the late-night clubs of Manhattan to the art deco bars of Miami, Nick searches for beautiful women to take to bed. He's so perfect, he's hilarious. Is there a man with a soul so noble that he has not entertained this fantasy? In real life, no one could stand around all day in his motorcycle jacket and sunglasses, purring platitudes to curvaceous dimwits. But Nick's relentless, self-conscious pursuit is very funny. Nick reminds us, "Never judge a book by its contents." Certainly not this book. The Shallow Man is fun, flash, and filigree--a sexy, witty spoof of the Nineties." -- Digby Diehl, Playboy "Shallow waters run deep. This stunning but unreflective man knows more than you think. Behind those big blank eyes and that deep tan is...well, something that women find hopelessly tempting: a healthy disdain for thinking too much. Since he can't be bothered connecting the dots, he maps out the politics of the jejune with an easy straight line. Reading the quick-witted prose, one begins to think less about things and more about Thing, the Shallow Man's tag for the women he dates: gorgeous, seemingly unattainable models. Nick Laws is like Hamlet without the mental baggage, tumbling Ophelia by Act II. Felske's The Shallow Man makes a case for the unexamined life." -- Esquire "I may not have been the king of Generation Face," proclaims hipster Nick Laws, in author Felske's first novel, "but I was definitely one of its princes." Nick can't get enough of "Thing" his catchphrase for impossibly stunning women; his every moment is devoted to bedding them-as long as they're not Civilians (regular-looking women). Spiked with original Nickspeak and hilarious dialogue, Felske's depiction of the physically elite is so clever in its anthropological detail that we can forgive his protagonist for just about anything. Besides, The Shallow Man harbors a few glimmers of Nick's humanity. You just have to dig to find them." -- People "PLAYBOY CENTERFOLD DATA SHEET, 'Favorite Book: "The Shallow Man" by Coerte Felske. It's about a very shallow man and his involvements with models.'" --Priscilla Lee Taylor, Miss March, 1996, Playboy ----------------------- "Fear not the Shallow Man, For all that is lost is one night." Such is the credo of Nick Laws, the suave party promoter who lives on the other side of the velvet ropes. Nick's world is an exclusive arena of fast-food romances, sex, and mind-boggling glamour. It's Nick Laws's obsession, and he is not in denial about it. "The Shallow Man" is his confession. Welcome to Generation Face...

Book excerpt: Shock jock extraordinaire Wendy Williams lets loose with the first in a series of novels based on her alter ego, the divalicious radio DJ Ritz Harper. Ritz puts the s in shock and the g in gossip, and Drama is her middle name. Ritz is a suburban girl on the outside, but inside she’s a hustler’s hustler who’s masterfully maneuvered her way into the spotlight after ruining the career of a well-respected newswoman (and former college friend). Ritz’s “exclusive” rockets her to the top of the ratings, and she’s rewarded with her very own show. Like a talking Venus flytrap, she verbally seduces her on-air guests, only to have them for lunch as she spews gossip about their lives. Ritz becomes the darling of the station’s afternoon slot. But when Ritz goes from drive-time diva to drive-by victim, all she can think as she struggles to maintain consciousness is “Who did this to me?" Has Ritz bad-mouthed the wrong person? Has her signature cat-and-mouse “bomb drop” been dropped on her instead? Readers will salivate as they try to figure out where the fictional Ritz ends and the real-life Wendy begins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Herman Hesse's spiritual journey of self-discovery in Siddharta and Santiago's "Personal Legend" in Paolo Coelho's The Alchemist, Coerte V.W. Felske's Three Sleeps to Double Happiness sets the imagination afire in an exhilarating allegorical tale of love, loss, vindication, and triumph. Written in hauntingly spare prose TSDH is the story of an unlikely hero, Gonzalo, an alternatively-abled albeit functional Spanish boy who travels to India to seek out a legendary tiger in order to achieve what he has uniquely interpreted to be "Double Happiness" from his childhood teachings. The tale is told primarily in flashback as "the young teen of indeterminate age" perches in a Dhok tree in India's Sariska jungle and awaits the appearance of the Great One for "three sleeps," his term for days, at the territorial beast's waterhole. As the boy waits and unwittingly fends off aggressive lemurs and the menacing leopard, his pin-wheeling, Kaleidoscope mind conjures disjointed reminiscences of a devastating childhood in Spain. Abused mercilessly for perceived disabilities, the boy and his sister, the beautiful and exceptional Aravella, live north of Barcelona in the coastal town Llavaneres with their mercenary foster father. Not only has the greedy Tuko adopted the two for government subsidies, he sells hashish and procures women for the notorious drug lord Don Pepe whose sprawling finca overlooks the town. Still, the siblings form an unbreakable bond and the sacrificial Aravella, Gonzalo's Sister the Angel, teaches him Spanish, biology, religion, folklore, even the Chinese love fable Double Happiness. Gonzalo's best friend is the Old Man, Santoro, a local spice farmer who offers the boy paternal guidance and recounts fantastic adventures traveling the world. Gonzalo marvels at Santoro's trip to India when he came face to face with Zephyrles a thirteen-foot Bengal tiger. The Old Man, stricken with cancer, laments he hadn't offered himself to the tiger to die an honorable death rather than to rot ignominiously in a field shack. After the Old Man passes, misfortune and tragedy beset the boy and he is left to fend for himself. In his sweetly configured, contemplative mind he decides on a plan to go to India to confront the Great One and discover the meaning of Double Happiness. Back in the jungle the boy entertains a rush of memories; he gets a job on a pleasure yacht and cruises the Spanish coast, then is offered work on a hashish farm in Morocco before taking the overland train to India. He recalls the physical abuse of classmates and his foster father, and all the dark memories of his past. But the boy who only sees the good in people finds his mind to be repairing itself. He gains the capacity to process the teachings taken in these years, allowing him to understand the world and identify and evaluate all the love and cruelty he has encountered. With this fresh clarity of thought, if not raised level of awareness, Gonzalo is emboldened to carry out his mission to offer himself for what he processes now to be that noble death of which Santoro spoke. After his third sleep, Zephyrles the Great One emerges and the boy must decide on his own fate. The tale is a scalding treatise recounted in a simplistic, meditative, almost poetic style, the prose so beautiful, it sings. Unintentionally the ultimate "green" novel and at once mystical and magical while no less brutal and unforgiving, TSDH excites the imagination long after the boy's final "Celebration" attended by a very special guest concludes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 30, 1593, London's most popular playwright was stabbed to death. The royal coroner ruled that Christopher Marlowe was killed in self-defense, but historians have long suspected otherwise, given his role as an "intelligencer" in the queen's secret service. In sixteenth-century London, Marlowe embarks on his final intelligence assignment, hoping to find his missing muse, as well as the culprits behind a high-stakes smuggling scheme. In present-day New York, grad student turned private eye Kate Morgan is called in on an urgent matter. One of her firm's top clients, a London-based financier, has chanced upon a mysterious manuscript that had been buried for centuries -- one that someone, somewhere is desperate to steal. What secret lurks in those yellowed, ciphered pages? And how, so many years later, could it drive someone to kill? As Kate sets off for England, she receives a second assignment. An enigmatic art dealer has made an eleven-million-dollar purchase from an Iranian intelligence officer. Is it a black-market antiquities deal, or something far more sinister? Like Marlowe, Kate moonlights as a spy -- her P.I. firm doubles as an off-the-books U.S. intelligence unit -- and she is soon caught like a pawn in a deadly international game. As The Intelligencer's interlocking narratives race toward a stunning collision, and Kate closes in on the truth behind Marlowe's sudden death, it becomes clear that she may have sealed a similar fate for herself. Propelling us from the shadows of the sixteenth-century underworld to the glitter of Queen Elizabeth's court, from the dark corridors of a clandestine American op-center to the cliffs of Capri, The Intelligencer is at once a murder mystery, a tale of poetic inspiration, and a richly detailed foray into parallel worlds of espionage and political intrigue separated by centuries.

Jersey Girl Jessie DeSalvo has her dream job at one of New York’s top publishing companies. After ten years of hard work the day of her big promotion has arrived. Unfortunately, her company has other ideas. Instead of a corner office, Jessie is handed her pink slip. Left with little more than her cell phone and an unusable contact list, Jessie retreats to less-than-fashionable Hoboken, New Jersey, to figure out her life—and deal with the attentions of her loving but inquisitive Italian-American family. Then she accidentally stumbles into a career as a professional best friend—by helping friends and strangers straighten out whatever is wrong with their lives. Her jobs include planning the New Jersey wedding of the year and saving a bankrupt rock club in town. Soon, things get complicated when she falls in love with the club manager—and promises an appearance by Bruce Springsteen. In the end, Jessie realizes that not even “The Boss” can make things right—and that she needs to become her own best friend to be truly happy.
