Sidney Villary is an ultra-conservative, three-term congressman from west Texas whose two main areas of attention are immigration and abortion. Concerning his particular views, he is both unyielding and unapologetic. He is up for re-election and, although concerned about his chances, he is not worried. BUT...he is under a considerable amount of stress, both professionally and personally. He is being "Primaried": he is challenged from the right by a family friend. His parents are constantly pressuring him to "settle down" and get married: they want grandchildren in the worst way, but Sidney, who has dedicated himself to serving his constituency, believes marriage would be his political Waterloo. And a woman who adores him-and happens to end up carrying his child-rejects him on the premise that he is unfit to be a father. Amidst the campaign Sidney experiences a life-altering transition, much for the worse: he will never be the same. For the first time in his life he experiences genuine loss...and emerges a better man.

J. Wells DeLozier was born in Memphis but grew to manhood in Nashville. He served eight years active duty in the U.S. Army, including two tours of duty in Germany in the 56th Field Artillery Brigade, the front-line in the Cold War (1975-1978 / 1979-1982). He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in English from (then) Memphis State University in 1986, then graduated summa cum laude from the last cycle of Lyndhurst Fellows at Memphis State U., 1988-1989. He is tri-lingual. He has taught English, German, and Journalism at various levels, but prefers accounting and public relations work. He has been married to the love of his life, the former Leah Anne Gorin of Nashville, since June of 1993. They live in the Metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona, area with their (rescue) dog and cat, and travel to Europe as often as possible. First published while attending school at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, Villary is his first novel.
