Bio:
Tim Baker was born and raised in Warwick, Rhode Island.
After attending college in Boston, Mass. he spent 20 years working in the Architectural industry. He has also worked for a large public utility as well as owning and operating his own home improvement company.
Aside from writing he is also a sports enthusiast and a devout fan of The Boston Red Sox. Music has also been a lifelong passion, starting when his older brothers introduced him to The Beatles at the age of 5.
He has raised and socialized puppies for Guiding Eyes for the Blind, studied and taught Martial Arts and loves to ride his motorcycle.
Tim made his first attempt at writing in 1988 with a story he called "Full Circle", a story that examined concepts like Karma, cause and effect and chaos theory as they affect the lives of everyday people. Unfortunately without the use of a computer or even a typewriter he shelved the project because of the difficulties of trying to construct a novel completely by hand. The idea for that first novel has never left him though, and even though "Living the Dream" and "Water Hazard" will be his first published novels; he plans on taking a second crack at "Full Circle" after he has completed his current projects "Unfinished Business" and "The Last Resort".
Currently, Tim resides in Palm Coast, Florida.
Featuring Tim Baker’s Book: Living The Dream
Kurt’s life has been one dead end after another since he was convicted of attempted rape thirty years ago.
Inspired by a dream, he thinks he’s finally found the way to Easy St. and it starts with kidnapping Vicky, the woman who had him arrested all those years ago.
Surely Vicky’s husband, wealthy investment consultant Jimmy, would pay handsomely for the safe return of his wife. But Kurt soon learns that even Easy Street has its share of pot holes.
After the road trip from Hell, Kurt arrives in Florida to learn that Jimmy is planning to leave Vicky and may not be interested in saving her. On top of that Jimmy’s mysterious mistress wants her own piece of the action.
To make matters worse, Kurt gets on the wrong side of a biker, a bookie and an ex-Navy SEAL who seem determined to make the rest of his life as painful as possible.
Meanwhile, Danny Putnam is enjoying life in Florida. He owns a successful dive shop and has a very comfortable lifestyle until he starts having bizarre dreams about his murdered wife and a beautiful woman he has never met. Suddenly his comfortable life becomes very complicated.
In the first novel by Tim Baker the lives of four people will meet at a crossroads where love, hate, betrayal and honesty converge for some very surprising results.
