A Musing’s Blue By: Tom Lynch Jr A Musing’s Blue is the story of a man who finds himself over the rainbow, and all the magical people, places, and things he discovers. But, most of all, it is about how a childish perspective is an ever-kept treasure of innocence.

Tony, the main character, is introduced as a teenager and reaches the age of forty-five at the conclusion of the book. He is an Italian male with brown hair and brown eyes. He is a clean-cut college graduate who is employed by a mob boss. Tonys invitation to play in a baseball game has a huge impact on his future. The game concludes when his team is attacked by a bloodthirsty gang. Tony escapes the gang of thugs by hiding in the backseat of a car that belongs to a mob boss, Mr. Guidice. He takes a liking to Tony and provides him with a menial but well-paying job. A mob hit that goes wrong results in a conversation between the two that opens the door to a bizarre arrangement. Tony is employed by Mr. Guidice to provide plans for murders that look like accidents. He needs a cover to hide his involvement in the scheme, so he poses as a consultant in a small out-of-the-way town. Along the way, he meets an intelligent, beautiful college girl named Kate, with whom he falls deeply in love. He manages to keep the criminal part of his life well hidden from others, especially from the love of his life. His relationship with Kate has its ups and downs and eventually falls apart. That doesnt stop him from revisiting his past years after he flees from his mob boss and his job as consultant.

This is a lighthearted tale about one mans adventure of moving from secure work in the Western Australian construction industry to a remote area of Sulawesi (Indonesia). He could not speak a word of Indonesian, and the local people spoke just a handful of English words.

“If you like your romance current, sexy and smart . . . read Wendy Chen! You can thank me later” (Donna Kauffman, USA Today–bestselling author). Kate is enjoying being engaged—even if it’s actually a hoax. To succeed in her finance job at her ultra-conservative company, she needs to reform her flighty party-girl reputation, and a good old-fashioned marriage of convenience should help her get closer to the promotion of her dreams. But when Adam, Kate’s best friend from high school, arrives for a visit, her perfect arrangement suddenly isn’t so perfect anymore. The nerdy boy she remembers from her teen years has grown into a gorgeous and successful man, and he’s vying for her affection and touching her guarded heart in ways she never expected. Her eminently practical marriage of convenience is starting to feel very inconvenient . . .
