Gianni Nicolino or Johnny from Jersey, aka Gianni Nico, aka Lukas Froneski, also known as THE FACE, never needed anyone; he took care of himself all his life, from running with street gangs in Newark, New Jersey, to the runways of New York, Paris, and Milan then with a clandestine group of “fixers” run by the U.S. government in Europe. He took on whatever personality suited him. At age forty-seven, he doesn’t know who he really is or where he belongs. That is until he finds a true home, learns to surf, is adopted by a dog and a cat couple, and falls head over heels in love with an over-scheduled, single mom. Heather has too much on her many plates, and they’re all spinning. With Tween Twin girls, a full-time job, aging parents, PTA, philanthropic commitments, and, oh yeah, GET DAD’S MONEY. She doesn’t sleep enough; her roots are showing, and the girls don’t go to the right dance studio, to the chagrin of the local townies. Her family name has been dragged through the mud, and she will restore their standing in the high society of Laguna Beach if it’s the last thing she does. But going to an alleged gangster for help may not have been the right move. And she can’t seem to get a certain “tall-dark-and-handsome” neighbor out of her already jam-packed mind. “The Face” is the fourth book in the “Tennent Surf” World. An Over 40/GenX Romance with several open-door love scenes, Gen X pop culture references, and finding the romance in getting older. This book comes after “The Perpetual”, “The Dasher” and “The Hubble.”
