The Great Basin Desert is almost two hundred thousand square miles of "nobody will ever find you." You want to make a statement? We've been known to hang bodies from the Reno Arch.

"Everything I know about love," she writes, "I learned from dogs."

Standing at the top of the DeAngelis empire isn’t as glamorous as it sounds.

I was the one stupid enough to hope for a happily ever after. It was my fault she was gone. It was my fault for being dumb, and being hopeful, and being in love.
