Bell Bottoms to Gucci

If you've ever wished you could relive or go back in time and experience the colorful, musicpowered, psychedelic 1960s and 70s, this novel is for you. Bell Bottoms to Gucci drops you into the year 1964 when the first protests of that era are borncampus takeovers, billyclubbing, students being dragged into police vans, etc. Patti's boyfriend, David, a student at UC Berkeley--inspired by the real kingpin of protests in those days--takes Patti under his wing and grooms her for the stereotypical role of hippie campus protester. "Hell No, We Won't Go!" echoes her true feelings about the Vietnam War during her college years. But after three assassinations and the Kent State shootings, Patti wears down and eventually admits her revulsion of the protests themselves. Upon graduation she returns home and grabs the gusto of a different life when she enters the "yuppie" corporate environment. From The Plaza in NYC to corporate boardrooms to the Fifth Avenue piedaterre of a wealthy descendant of Dutch patroons, Patti navigates a world of deception, greed, high stakes and power players. Now out of sync with her previous "love and peace" persona and her beloved David, a descent into this darker world ensues. What she doesn't know is that her past relationships with conspiratorial figures involved in the Kennedy assassination are about to catch up with her in a life and death situation.
