“A fast-paced page turner, well written with lots of twists and turns…” — Bonnie L
“An edge-of-your-seat type read!” —T
“A Taut, twisting tale of justice and revenge” – Bob Mayer, NY Times best-selling Author

A page-turning suspense thriller that is part of the Women of Redemption Series, books that feature women who may not be perfect, but perfectly kick-ass when given a second chance. Be one of the first to discover the new series that readers are calling intriguing from the first page, with unpredictable endings!

Interview with the Author

Q – So, what makes the Women of Redemption books special?

A – I think it really boils down to the characters. When I write, I let the characters tell me who they are, and what I discover is that like any of us, they wrestle with the challenges life throws at them in a varied manner. The emotions they experience are real – anger, betrayal, hurt, grief, guilt – and the choices they make as a result – whether revenge, vengeance, or just turning a blind eye – may not be good or right, but they’re human, and people make mistakes. The question facing each in the end, is what will they do to make the wrong right?

Q – You like to throw your strong female protagonists into some impossible situations. Why is that?

A – I’ve always liked books about ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances. I believe people often find the best in themselves when faced with the worst. I want readers to put themselves in these women’s shoes, and think… How far would I go to get justice if I was kidnapped and the perpetrators responsible were never punished? What would I do if I found out the woman I most respected was taking justice into her own hands? What if I discovered the man I found guilty of murder was innocent and I was the one responsible for securing his death sentence?

Q – These books seem to cross genre boundaries, a bit mystery, suspense, and thriller.

A – I think all authors like to create books that mirror the kind of books they like to read. My top picks are usually serial killer thrillers, psychological thrillers, private detectives, and any number of thriller and mystery best sellers. I love a fast-paced style that keeps me on the edge of my seat. As a result, I think my books tend to take a part from each genre – a bit “whodunit”, some “don’t open that door”, add a few high stakes and blend them together.

Q – What order should I read the books in?

A – Each of the books is a standalone novel with the theme of redemption so they can be read in any order. Technically, The Advocate is the first in the series, The Fifth Juror the second, and the third, The Tattoo Artist, will come out in 2019. There is also a two-book bundle available for 25% off the regular price.

Q – So, why should a reader check out your books?

A – Because you’ll love the unique dilemmas these strong female characters find themselves immersed in and the quick-action they’ll have to take to save their lives and the lives of those they love.

And thanks for reading!

Dark Romance Series – BLAIRE part 1 and 2

“…a complex story that delved into the darkness,
while pushing hard towards the light.”

~ Trish, Unbound Book Reviews

PART 1

Bought. Conditioned. Sold to the enemy.
My name is Blaire. I’m head of security to a man who controls the Russian underworld in Europe. His name is Maksim and he’s my master. He bought me ten years ago and conditioned me with brutality to worship and protect him. And I have protected him. I’ve slain everyone who has tried to do him harm. Everyone but a man he loans me to; a man who threatens to break me and everything I believe in.

You’re going to need a strong stomach and a strong heart to follow my story, because take my word for it, it’s no fairy tale.

PART 2

Don’t take what isn’t yours.
Unless you’re willing to fight for it.

I survived my depraved master, Maksim. Now, I belong to Charlie Decena, by nature and by nurture. He broke everything I believed in.
My life still lingers in the gray zone — dark and light, love and hate, betrayal and murder.

I’m battling Maksim’s brutal conditioning to uncover who Blaire is, for Charlie. I adhere to his counsel, indulge in his debauched desires, and pacify his dominance
— until he pushes me too far.

I hope I didn’t completely shatter your heart in the beginning of my story because it’s just getting started. I’m being tested beyond my limit by a lurking threat who has taken something very dear to me. And if they don’t return what isn’t theirs, someone is going to die.

A police procedural thriller ripped from future headlines!

“…packed with action and unexpected developments…fast-paced, entertaining…” – Kirkus Reviews

After Jake shoots and kills a murder suspect who turns out to be the son of a powerful city councilman, he finds himself demoted to the Artificial Crimes Unit, tracking down androids hacked and programmed to be hit men.

When his case of an “extra-judicial” divorce settlement takes a nasty turn with DNA from a hundred-year-old murder in Boston and a signature that harkens back to the very first serial killer ever in London, Jake finds himself tangled up in the brutal slayings of prostitutes being investigated by his former Robbery/Homicide partner, Maddie–who is now his lover.

“It might not make sense, but the beloved Media tags it ‘Murder by Munchausen.’ For a price, there are hackers out there who will reprogram a synthoid to do your dirty work. The bad news: no fingerprints or DNA left at the crime scene. The good news—at least for us—is that they’re like missiles: once they hit their target, they’re usually as harmless as empty brass. The trick is to get them before they melt down their core OS data, so you can get the unit into forensics for analysis and, hopefully, an arrest.” [excerpt from Murder by Munchausen]

Artificial Intelligence? Fuhgeddaboudit!

Artificial Evil has a name…Munchausen.
