Paradise Jones dreams of the Hollywood glamour days. Clothes, hair, vintage car--you name it, she's got it. She's classic retro, a 21st-century image of her favorite Golden Era stars--Doris, Audrey, Esther, Marilyn. The entertainment rags call Paradise eccentric. The studios rarely call at all. When an altercation with her leering stepfather forces her to flee Los Angeles, Paradise leaves behind everything she loves and longs for. A few hundred miles east, Doc Morales' years of hard work in the minors of Major League Baseball have produced exactly one at bat in the Big Show. A collision at first, a blown knee, and adios dreams. Nothing left to live for but pick-up games and his collection of old movies. Nothing, that is, until beautiful, damaged Paradise Jones crashes into his small, Arizona town. So begins an epic road trip that will change everything. Throw in a couple of oddball bounty hunters, a forgotten movie-star boat captain, a cowboy priest, and a dashboard Jesus that is more than meets the eye, and Paradise and Doc have all the ingredients they need to cook up a fun and quirky slice of Americana pie."--Amazon.com. 541 $d 20221215. 650 $a Miracles $v Fiction. 650 $a Actors $v Fiction. 650 $a Baseball players $v Fiction. 651 $a Arizona $v Fiction. 653 $a Los Angeles (Calif.) -- Fiction. 655 $a Humorous fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l CXPC586 $d 20230929010144.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=85692C4A5E8D11EE943BD51C20ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
