    eBook (, Dec. 15, 2010)
    With drop dead gorgeous Jasmine from Laguna Beach you never know what will happen next and every date is truly an adventure. Colin finds himself madly in love with Jasmine, believes he has met "the one" and experiences agony and ecstasy. An absorbing teen romance that is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. What readers are saying:"Colin falls for the incredibly beautiful, but flawed Jasmine, and can hardly believe his luck when his feelings are reciprocated. As in life though, things don't necessarily go smoothly, but throughout the tale my attention was held and I was bound in, by the well drawn characters I cared for deeply...I was with Colin every step of his journey, feeling all of the highs and lows with him. It is a story told from the male perspective, but I suspect this romantic drama will appeal to both sexes. College life is described so well, so that the reader gets an authentic feel for student life." "I love the author's natural, conversational writing style. The story is very well written and the pace is excellent, it held my rapt attention right to the very end. I like the way the story made me feel as if I were actually an observer, watching events unfold as they happened, rather than merely reading about them after the fact. The story-line and characters are so utterly realistic and believable that I kept forgetting this book is a work of fiction." "From the first page, I was drawn into Colin Preston's world and completely immersed in it. I needed to know what happened to Colin and his friends. They are real people instead of characters in a book. I have known them. The story takes place in a college setting, but the conflict is ageless. Most of us have been in this situation or a similar one. We are fascinated by love and its power to fill us with ecstasy or to make us miserable. I enjoy movies because I am in the scene, seeing the actors and listening to their words all at once. Somehow, Bert Murray is able to convey the same feeling. With perfect clarity, the best choice of words, and a little pixie dust, he created a world so real to me that I was surprised when I realized I'd just been reading my Kindle in my favorite chair. I highly recommend this book to everyone, especially if you're older and sometimes wish to be young again."

    Paperback (Independently published, Dec. 20, 2017)
    With drop dead gorgeous Jasmine from Laguna Beach you never know what will happen next and every date is truly an adventure. Funny as hell with characters that feel completely real and you won't read a better coming of age story about teenage angst and first love than this one. What readers are saying: "Great Story...I really enjoyed this book. It pulled you in from the first and kept you interested through out. It was well written and made you feel like you were there. The story and the characters were great too. I recommend this author and this book to all." "Stayed up until 3 am reading this...I SO wanted to finish the book last night but only made it until 3 am. It's hard to believe that this is the author's first novel, it's that good. I thought the character development, in part using their taste in music, was enjoyably clever. Reading about Colin's struggles brought back a lot of memories of college. First loves, betrayals, loneliness, friendship, happiness and growing through adversity are such big parts of the those years of our lives...Great book!"
