COCAINE COWBOYS tells the story of Ireland's love affair with cocaine since it first washed ashore on Cork's rugged coast to the billion-euro trade it has become. From Ireland's first cocaine lord and his attempts to establish a direct route from Miami to Dublin to the modern-day violence that led to the brutal dismemberment of teenager Keane Mulready Woods, the book will follow the stories and the increasing chaos that has engulfed those desperate for a slice of this modern day gold rush. Along the way it details how cocaine has woven bonds between high society and the underworld, tracing the deal that killed the model Katy French and detailing how the Kinahan Cartel and Ireland's one time richest and most influential family joined forces to wash dirty money. COCAINE COWBOYS is the definitive tale of the rise of Colombia's most famous export to become the drug of a nation.

She just found out her dad’s relocating his wedding to Starlight so he can spend more time with his “little girl” before the big day. Except, Jilly isn’t a little girl, or the successful photographer she’s been bragging to him about. And she definitely doesn’t have the serious boyfriend her dad’s been dying to meet. Brantley West has been in love with Jilly since they were teenagers. Even his time away in the Army didn’t change the way he feels, but timing has never been on his side. Something has always gotten in the way, and he’s come to accept they’ll only ever be friends. So when she asks him to be not only her plus one to her dad’s wedding, but her fake boyfriend of two years as well, he’s conflicted. Pretending to be her doting boyfriend for a week is the easy part.
