Oh, wow. I’ve read two edge-of-your-seat books this week!! The first one is Nancy Mehl’s Dark Deception and the second one is Christy Barritt’s The Wrecking. Let me tell you about Nancy’s book first. I loved Fatal Frost and had been looking forward to reading Dark Deception. I was not disappointed. Here’s the back cover copy: Kate O’Brien’s quiet life in small-town Shelter Cove, Arkansas is …
Crimes from the Past
I finished my edits for Justice Betrayed at 11 p.m. Sunday. They were due Monday. 🙂 I wish I could show you the cover, but my publisher says to wait…I think this is my favorite book. Of course, I say that about every book I write after it’s finished. Set in Memphis, this is my Elvis book, and a sociopath is …
Reader Friday – Rick Acker
Oh.My.Goodness. Rick Acker wrote one of my all-time favorite stories–When the Devil Whistles–and now we are featured in the same anthology, The Kill Zone: Ten Deadly Thrillers! His book is Secrets, and the story is full of them. Here’s the back cover blurb and then I’ll give my review: “Everyone has secrets. Silicon Valley billionaire Scott Sherman’s could forever change three …

Rainbows and Miracles
This weekend my sister and I went to visit my nephew. Exactly a year ago this week we almost lost him to sepsis, not once but three times. It’s hard to believe but after a long year of rehab, he went to the fair in his hometown last week. Miracles do happen. Coming home, these two rainbows followed us for several …
Reader Friday –
This week has been so busy that I haven’t had time to read a new book. I’ve started one–Dean Koontz’s Intensity, but I only read at night and it is so intense that I can’t sleep once I finish reading. I don’t usually read General market books, but I read an excerpt that was so well written, that I’m reading it as a …

Reader Friday – Karen Rock
I am so excited to introduce an author I’ve gotten to know over at Harlequin Heartwarming–Karen Rock! She writes the most amazing stories about characters who have made major mistakes in their lives. While the Heartwarming books aren’t sold in the CBA market, they are sweet romances with characters who have strong moral codes. I’ve just finished an arc copy …
Outrageous scams
I don’t know where you were last Friday, but in Mississippi, the temperature hit 90 degrees the first day of fall! Autumn has always been my favorite season. I love the crispness in the air, the breathtaking blue of a clear October sky, the changing of the seasons… How about you? What season is your favorite? And now onto last …
Reader Friday – James Rubart
This week’s book is a departure from my usual genre. James Rubart’s The Long Journey to Jake Palmer isn’t suspense or mystery, but it is a book that has stayed with me long after I finished it. Here’s the back cover blurb: What if there was a place where everything wrong in your life could be fixed? Corporate trainer Jake …
