Women and Whiskey - a new novel by Eric Maus

Women and Whiskey - a new novel by Eric Maus

Ever been in love with two people at the same time? Danny Clark has. He's been in love with every woman he's ever met.

A bellboy scribbling verses on cocktail napkins, Danny Clark thinks he's the next Shakespeare. Really he is a drunk with a gift for bad decisions — and the married woman across the bar might be his worst one yet.

Women and Whiskey is a brutally honest journey into the psyche of an egotistical seducer and his downfall.

Most guys want to be a womanizer. This is what it’s like to be one. Danny Clark is the man you'll love to hate.

"Addictive writing and a story that feels unskippable..." - IndieReader
