Kenny spent 30 years in the Army Reserve, deployed to Iraq twice, and came home to atone for his sins. After writing Scoundrels in Iraq: An Engineer’s Adventures, he surprised himself by writing a romance, Pin Up Dolls and Classic Cars: A COVID Love Story.
But not the kind you’re used to. This romance is written by someone who’s experienced real trauma, hardship and humanity at its breaking point.
Set in the world Kenny knows – The Pacific Northwest pin up and classic car scene – this book describes the emotional needs of blue collar folks trying to get by, finding and keeping love.
Bonus: Kenny narrates his own audiobooks and occasionally croons classic songs. Because it’s fun.
