Love Hurts is the first installment of the Love Rescue Me Trilogy. The three books are a Love story for our turbulent times. The stories are partially set in a downtown LA mission and various locales across Europe, Hawaii and the East and West coasts. These three book have homeless and crazy people, drug dealers, movie and rock stars, 9/11 survivors and Playboy Playmates in it. Lots of drugs, sex and Rock 'n Roll, addiction and redemption. In other words it's a typical John Stover book. The narrative tells the tale of two star-crossed lovers and their doomed attempts and eventual success in finding one another after almost forty years. This one is a real tear-jerkier.
