Book Description
Stephen Pisani teams up with his sister, Lisa Brandi, to memorialize the extraordinary relationship he shared with Lolly Vegas, the lead singer and co-founder of a band that became rock royalty: Redbone. Stephen, a musician himself, comes from a show biz family whose own stories would also make one hell of a book... but this one is For the Love of Lolly. It's a collection of memories that are fond, funny and frickin' crazy! Lolly Vegas was Steve's next door neighbor and best friend. He was a Native American rock star who set the music world on fire with his blockbuster hit song "Come and Get Your Love." This musical trailblazer lived every day like it was his last, right up until the day that was his last. Stephen was blessed to be invited to go along for the ride, and what a ride it was. For the Love of Lolly is a recounting of remembrances centered around a friendship that changed Steve's perspective, his heart, and his life. In Stephen's own words... "Lolly's wisdom and unconditional brotherhood taught me to tame my demons, and once I had them under control, I could do anything I set my mind to--even write a book. He was weird and wild and wonderful. I believe these stories will touch your heart and tickle your funny bone, and I dare you to make it to the last page without reaching out to your best friend. So... for the love of God, get your copy of For the Love of Lolly today!"

Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Good Grief comes a “winsome story with charm to burn about second acts and second chances” (Jennifer Weiner, New York Times bestselling author) that asks: How soon is too soon to fall in love again? The last thing Rudy expected was to wake up one Saturday morning, a widower at fifty-four-years-old. Now, ten months after the untimely death of his beloved wife, he’s still not sure how to move on from the tragedy—but his new job is helping. After being downsized, Rudy turned to his first love: the piano. Some people might be embarrassed to work as the piano player at Nordstrom, but for Rudy, there’s joy in bringing a little music into the world. And it doesn’t hurt that Sasha, the Hungarian watch clerk who is finally divorcing her no-good husband, finds time to join him at the bench every now and then. Just when Rudy and Sasha’s relationship begins to deepen, the police come to the store with a shocking update about Rudy’s wife’s premature death, and now they believe his actions are suspicious enough to warrant a second look. With Sasha’s husband suddenly reappearing, and Rudy’s daughter confronting her own marital problems, life suddenly becomes more complicated than Rudy or Sasha could have ever imagined. Perfect for fans of Jennifer Weiner and Fredrik Backman, Me for You is an “exquisitely wrought window into an oft-ignored subject, mid-life love, and a reminder that grief and joy can live side by side.” (Michelle Richmond, New York Times bestselling author). Exploring the tender humor of two people being newly single again, Lolly Winston’s latest is a funny, wry, and heartfelt examination of finding love when it’s least expected.

Book Description
"That is what most people don't understand. They think success happens overnight - well I am here to say it doesn't. It truly takes dedication, perseverance, and a love for what you do to make your dreams come true. There were moments of blood, sweat, tears, and feelings of defeat that made these moments all worth it. The struggle led them to find their voice, a league of their own and make history...When you think about lives lived to their fullest, for the Vegas Brothers and Redbone, that would be an understatement. From performing on the #1 rated music show in the 60's titled "Shindig," sold out shows, #1 Singles/Albums, getting their song "We Were All Wounded At Wounded Knee" banned from airplay in the US due to its brutal truth about the 7th Cavalry, to traveling all across the world, and performing at Royal Albert Hall for the Queen herself (and my dad accidentally calling her "Babe"). It wouldn't even begin to describe the untold memories and laughter shared through the years. It is only but a mere taste of what was on their plates from the second they decided their destiny." (From the Foreword by Frankie Vegas)
