A Stand-up comedian and his fall-down-drunk artist identical twin need and want to switch places secretly. The comedian is in jail and needs out to prove his innocence. His brother needs in to detox with the hope of saving his engagement. Now out, the comedian has to enlist the help of a Mafia Don to clear his name, but suspects he may end up cat food. The comedian must also live with his brother's Fiancée-a demanding psychologist-without touching her. The comedian's attorney, a beautiful Chinese American is surprised when whom she thinks is the comedian starts flirting with her and nearly steals her heart. The twin flirts to set up the attorney, he just knows is perfect for his brother. Meanwhile, the comedian is having difficulty holding off his brother's fiancée. They must switch back, and it won't be the last time.
Through a deal with the Don, he's out of jail, but a renegade mobster still pursues him. Now the four best friends-entwined like spaghetti-must survive the chase while weighing the bonds of identical twins against the meaning and respect for an engagement and their own feelings. They'll decide-who should marry whom-if they live that long or even if there is a double or single wedding. This novel is inspired by William Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors.

Had gotten the writing bug when, long ago, NBC contracted a screenplay I wrote. Busy being an engineer and breadwinner, I had no time to refine it. I love family life and love my family, two daughters, two grandsons, one wife.
I enjoy great movies such as Sleepless in Seattle or You've Got Mail and great books like Susan Elizabeth Phillips' Natural Born Charmer. I prefer Romantic comedies in books like Mary Leo's Stick Shift. I also like Janet Evanovich and Jeffery Deaver to name a couple. They're not dating as far as I know.

Thank you so much for taking an interest in my work. I write to lift you up. I write to the beat of a drummer not usually heard, i.e. my stories are unusual but believable. Two of them actually happened in real life, Neanderthals and the Garden of Eden and Autumn Breeze. In one I took poetic or prose license to protect the innocent. In the other I told the story of those who created the vision of a better life for all of us 100,000 years ago.
