Author's Tranquility Press Presents: A Thrilling Adventure

Meet Gore Lyle: The Ex-Green Beret Turned Reluctant Hero in a High-Stakes World
Jim Hawk's latest novel, "And I Wanted To Be A Boat Bum [https://www.amazon.com/Wanted-Be-Boat-Bum/dp/1964810019/ref=monarch_sidesheet_image]," published by Author's Tranquility Press, introduces readers to the riveting world of Gore Lyle. This captivating story combines action, intrigue, and a touch of humor, painting a vivid picture of a man caught between his past and his faith.

Gore Lyle is not your average hero. Standing at six-foot-two and weighing in at two hundred pounds of mostly muscle, this ex-Green Beret and ex-cop has seen the darkest sides of life. As an undercover agent for the Special Police Undercover Terrorism Force (SPUTF), Lyle's life is far from ordinary. His wealth, courtesy of a mob chief, adds another layer of complexity to his existence. Yet, this wealth comes with its own dangers, including a mob that probably wants him dead. The nature of his interactions with them-usually involving a gun and minimal conversation-keeps the suspense high.

The narrative delves deep into Lyle's psyche, revealing the haunting memories of Green Beret missions gone wrong, marked by intense violence and regret. These experiences have left him a changed man, struggling to reconcile his brutal past with his newfound faith in God. The old, ruthless Gore is always lurking in the background, emerging in moments of extreme danger, but constantly kept in check by his Christian beliefs and his unique sense of humor.

In " And I Wanted To Be A Boat Bum ," life is never simple. Lyle's dangerous occupation forces him to constantly balance his violent tendencies with his desire for a peaceful, faith-driven life. The tension between his past and present creates a compelling narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. The novel's blend of action, spiritual struggle, and humor provides a multi-dimensional view of a man trying to navigate a life filled with danger and moral dilemmas.

Jim Hawk masterfully weaves a story that is both thrilling and introspective. " And I Wanted To Be A Boat Bum " is not just about action; it's about a man's journey towards redemption and the constant battle between his violent instincts and his desire to be a better person. Hawk's writing brings Lyle's world to life, making readers feel every punch, gunshot, and heartfelt prayer.
