About the Author
Born in Buena Vista, Mexico, in 1942, Joe Mark Villareal moved to McAllen, Texas, in 1947 and later settled in California. After graduating from Coachella Valley Union High School in 1961, he joined the U.S. Army in 1964, serving as a tank driver during the Vietnam era. His service exposed him to Agent Orange and other harmful chemicals, which took a toll on his health, leading to vision loss in 2013. A proud veteran and resilient spirit, Joe earned his Film Director Certification from Riverside City College in 2017 and now dreams of bringing his story to the screen. Inspired by his life experiences and guided by advice from his therapist, he shares his powerful journey through writing—with hopes to one day see Jerzy Joe on the big screen.

About the Book
Strap in, civilian. This ain’t your grandma’s war story. This is the absurd, oil-stained, bullet-dodging, pasta-fueled tale of Joe, a soldier-turned-mechanic who, somehow, ended up neck-deep in the mafia with none other than Bob Sessa, a man whose idea of subtlety involves pinstripes and a crowbar.
From fixing tanks in the desert to fixing “problems” in the back alleys of Jersey, Joe takes you on a ride through military mayhem, motor oil mishaps, and mobster madness. You’ll laugh, you’ll gasp, you’ll wonder how no one lost a limb (spoiler: someone might’ve).
Jersey Joe thrills readers with grit, humor, and unforgettable twists.
Award-worthy storytelling packed with action, laughs, and heart-pounding moments.
Veterans and experts praise Jersey Joe’s raw, authentic, thrilling ride.
Jersey Joe captivates readers globally with chaos, courage, and charm.

Bob Wahl’s novel “Love Never Ends” is about faith and unwavering love. Bob has served in the ministry and is the author of multiple books.
I read “Love Never Ends” and braced myself for heartbreak. This book tells the story of Bob’s wife of nearly 59 years, Bev, battle with dementia and how Bob got through such a trying period in his life. Despite its devastating nature, the novel was brimming with love. All I could feel while reading the book was Bob’s intense love for his wife. Bob showed resolve and an awareness that something was off. Even though he was told repeatedly that everything was normal with Bev’s results, he continued to take his wife to appointments, knowing something was wrong. Bob overcame this difficult period in his life by relying on his faith. It was a gritty book that provided readers with an honest synopsis of Bev’s dementia fight through excerpts from Bob’s journal. The passages of this book that I found most difficult to read were the ones where Bob was upset with himself for something he felt he should have done. Bob was a great husband and friend to his wife, loving her unconditionally.
The beginning of the book by author Bob Wahl was my favorite aspect of it. It discussed the depth of their shared life, including their family, love, travels, adventures, and faith. It established the framework for the book and emphasized how incredible their nearly 59 years together were.
I really like every aspect of the book and have found nothing I can critique.
I gave it a five out of five. Many of us have experienced dementia in a friend, loved one, or other close relative. This book provides insights into Bob’s faith, his interactions with the medical system, his humility, and his methods for keeping the family informed of developments and changes. It was expertly edited, with very few errors.
