"Be Still My Heart: A Code for Love" by Chuck Trunks is getting great reviews on Amazon!

Columbia, South Carolina  - March 26, 2025 - An excerpt from Chapter 6:

"As crazy as this sounds, I did a photo shoot for a BDSM group in the Box Canyon Nature Preserve about 15 miles past Hagerman. It's an offshoot of the Snake River and has a few nice waterfalls. Have you ever hiked there before? I pried, fully knowing I had just pulled the pin from an invisible grenade. Would it explode? Or would it provide me with a chance to tell her a terrific, PG-rated story about some of the nicest people I've ever photographed?"

Be Still My Heart: A Code for Love is on Amazon now.

Back Cover:

How many times do we have to hear, "You're not trying hard enough," "You're going about it the wrong way," or "You need to step outside your comfort zone?" At first, I bristled at such tiresome platitudes, yet there I was, rolling up my sleeves, putting myself out there, and believing that life gives you exactly what you put into it.

But does it? Has life really given you exactly what you deserve? When so many of us can't find romantic love, meaningful work, a true friend, a permanent home, or enough money to live on, I can't help but think that something other than our own poor choices and self-defeating behaviors is working behind the scenes to keep us from acquiring happiness, success, and fulfillment. To me, it just doesn't add up.

Be Still My Heart: A Code for Love will not only reveal what's hidden behind the curtain, but you'll come to understand that your lot in life isn't all your fault. 💖💖💖

Columbia, South Carolina - March 10, 2025 - "There is a kind of sadness that comes from knowing too much, from seeing the world as it truly is. It is the sadness of understanding that life is not a grand adventure but a series of small, insignificant moments, that love is not a fairy tale but a fragile, fleeting emotion, and that happiness is not a permanent state but a rare, fleeting glimpse of something we can never hold onto. And in that understanding, there is a profound loneliness, a sense of being cut off from the world, from other people, from oneself."

-Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse, 1927
