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 …
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 …

In the biggest case of her career, attorney Kate Sullivan is tapped as lead counsel to take on Mason Pharmaceutical because of a corporate cover-up related to its newest drug.

Reader Friday- Nancy Mehl
Good morning! Welcome to Reader Friday. Today I’m discussing Nancy Mehl’s book, Fatal Frost. This is the first of Nancy’s books that I’ve read, but it won’t be the last. I’m so excited to add another great suspense writer to my list of favorite authors! Here’s the back cover copy: Mercy Brennan followed in her father’s footsteps in a law enforcement …
Reader Friday- Richard Mabry
Good morning! If you haven’t read any books by Richard L. Mabry, M.D., you are truly missing great reads. I’ve read all of his books since the first one, Code Blue, usually in one sitting and often late into the night since I can’t seem to put them down. The last one, Cardiac Event was no exception. He had me on the …
Reader Friday – Johnnie Alexander
I’m late posting today because I was a guest of the wonderful Memphis book club, Juliet, last night to discuss Justice Delayed. We ate at Corky’s, which is mentioned in the book! I had such fun talking about writing and the ladies had such interesting questions! And the food was wonderful! If you’re ever in Memphis, be sure to stop by Corky’s and …
Reader Friday: A.H. Gabhart
This week I’ve started a class on writing cozies by Melissa Bourbon so I may be featuring cozies this month. 😉 In case you don’t know, I plan to write a cozy murder mystery set on a modern day paddle wheeler on the Mississippi. And what is a cozy, you ask? It’s a Murder, She Wrote type of story, usually …
Reader Friday: The Priority Unit
What a short week it’s been. Because I’m trying to finish Revenge for the Kill Zone anthology, I’ve only read one book this past week, but I really enjoyed it. The Priority Unit by Susan Page Davis kept me reading way past my bedtime, so I’ve gotten by on only six hours sleep a night. And I had to make myself put it …
Reader Friday – Steven James
As I’ve told you in the past, I’m working on two stories dealing with human trafficking and that means digging into the underbelly of this crime. However, there are others who have written fictional stories on this subject, so some of my research is done by reading those books. Last week I read Every Crooked Path by Steven James. Readers, I’m …
