Book Description
Crew’s Ship Affairs is the third book in the stand-alone Blue-Collar Romance novels series, written by Bob Ojala. The previous two books, A Tugboater’s Life and The Tugboater Family revolved around the drama and romances of the Great Lakes sailors working in the tough and dangerous Marine Construction business.. This third novel continues with many of the same endearing characters, with a new character, Bob Evers, continuing to tell the tugboater crews about his unusual experiences while working aboard numerous passenger cruise ships. Most cruise ship passengers are not privy to what happens beneath the passenger decks, but Bob Evers experienced and understands the relationships that can occur, both good and bad, when 600-1000 men and women live together for four to eight months at a time.. The Crew’s Ship Affairs reader will be shocked and fascinated, even at times envious, of how these various cultures learn to treat one another with respect. Romance takes on many different meanings under such circumstances.. Mr. Ojala is a Naval Architect and Marine Surveyor, very familiar with the Great Lakes. He has traveled the world to inspect ships, including over 165 Passenger Ship Cruises as an environmental auditor.. Most of the characters and experiences in the Blue-Collar Romances series come from Mr. Ojala’s personal observations, changing the names where needed. His respect for the sailors and their families is obvious in these stories.. Maritime industry readers will love the true-life drama, and readers appreciating good romance will love the character’s personal interactions.

Book Description
When Ellie's fiance cheats on her with a younger, slimmer, blonde from the office, she boots him out of her life and finds solace in a fabulous photography job aboard a Caribbean cruise ship. Twenty-four hours on board and she's already shagged her sexy Texan colleague, who happens to love her muffin-top. Unfortunately, he's leaving in a week, and his ex-girlfriend, a hot-headed Brazilian with stripper moves right out of the 90s and a talent for stealing boyfriends, is still on board and out for revenge. Ellie must work out how to deal with the loco ex, sort the lying scumbags from the good guys, and figure out how many crew members in a cabin it takes before officially becoming group sex. Who the hell knows? (It's five, actually.) It's a world completely unlike the one she left behind, but as she tries to find her place on board, Ellie discovers laughter and tears in equal measure. And in the midst of the craziness, she realises the greatest thing this lifestyle change has given her is the chance to rediscover herself."

Book Description
A collection of Facebook posts and comments from March through June of 2020, chronicling the events and effects of the Coronavirus lockdown of the seaside villages of Los Osos and Baywood Park and the environs of San Luis Obispo County, on California's Central Coast. Through a mixture of newsy reports and storytelling, the triumph of normal people overcoming shortages and restrictions, confusion, and consternation, emerge from the shadows. Humor brightens the way, social change is appraised, and applauded, and memories of past adventures add spice to days of isolation. Local heroes and sheroes risk health and welfare in providing essential services to friends and neighbors as together, this group of magnificent misfits through no desire of their own, write a living history.

Book Description
In 1905 President Teddy Roosevelt dispatched Secretary of War William Howard Taft on the largest U.S. diplomatic mission in history to Hawaii, Japan, the Philippines, China, and Korea. Roosevelt's glamorous twenty-one year old daughter Alice served as mistress of the cruise, which included senators and congressmen. On this trip, Taft concluded secret agreements in Roosevelt's name. In 2005, a century later, James Bradley traveled in the wake of Roosevelt's mission and discovered what had transpired in Honolulu, Tokyo, Manila, Beijing and Seoul. In 1905, Roosevelt was bully-confident and made secret agreements that he though would secure America's westward push into the Pacific. Instead, he lit the long fuse on the Asian firecrackers that would singe America's hands for a century.
