What About A Turtle?

Murder is a dish best served cold… preferably with frosting and plausible deniability.

Charlotte Mission didn’t plan to spend her retirement dodging mop buckets and folding fitted sheets — but when your ex-husband’s a rogue spy out for revenge, you take what you can get. In this case? A job at her grandmother’s sleepy little inn in Gossip, Texas.

Only, it’s not so sleepy.

On her very first day, a guest faceplants in the dining room — dead. And of course, Charlie’s the one holding the tray. The cops want answers. The guests want refunds. And Charlie? She just wants to keep her cover from being blown like a badly iced cupcake.

Now she’s got to solve a murder, serve breakfast with a smile, and stay one step ahead of the man who wants her dead.

A retired spy. A cranky granny with secrets of her own. And a murder that’s messing with the menu. Welcome to Gossip, Texas — try the vanilla… just maybe don’t trust it.

This is the first book in a five-book series, set in Champagne Waters… a beautiful beach township where friends become family and broken hearts find their home.

Zara and Allie were close friends at boarding school twenty-five years ago. They have both found their way to Champagne Waters, reeling from humiliating divorces, and looking for new lives. Zara is immensely wealthy, and Allie is almost penniless. Their new paths aren’t always easy, but Champagne Waters offers them friendship, support, and romances neither of them expected.

The heartbeat of Champagne Waters is the beach, and its soul is its people — including the owners and staff of the eateries and specialty shops lining the beachfront in quaint and colorful original shopfronts.

As Sahara comes into her newfound witchy powers, she’s about to discover that magic has its own set of perks — and perils. First in the completed four-book “Heart of a Witch” series!

For starters, should she be a good witch or a bad witch? And which of the two rival witches should she choose as her mentor?

Paris is on the side of good.

Abigail… not so much.

Meanwhile, two men have entered her life… and her heart.

Both have love on the mind, even as Sahara explores the addictive power of the dark side. Turns out, there’s one evil mamma jamma on the loose… a witch of incalculable power. If Sahara could just learn her spells and find a magical spell book, she just might be the one to stop the coming evil. Easier said than done, especially when her heartstrings are being pulled by two hunky men, for two different reasons.

A grandfather’s tale. A mysterious shipwreck. A race against time.

Cayman Islands divemaster AJ Bailey is searching for a long forgotten WWII U-boat at the bottom of the Caribbean Sea. Armed with nothing more than an adventurous spirit and her late grandfather’s tale, she’s determined to find the submarine and the secret it protects.

When a wealthy treasure hunter shows up with a ruthless crew, AJ becomes entangled in a frantic duel to find the precious piece of history. Diving into the path of merciless killers at treacherous depths, she must fight to keep her grandfather’s dream – and herself – alive.

Weaving between 1945 and current time, Twelve Mile Bank blends an intriguing historical tale with thrilling modern suspense in book one of the AJ Bailey Adventure series.

Bobby B is given a choice: death or the Army. His choice leads him to become a Timer – a group of soldiers so disposable that only about 10% survive a ten year tour. Because the corporations that run society value property more than life, they don’t even give them real bullets. Timers are only issued plastic flechettes so they don’t damage precious buildings and equipment. Bobby and a few other Timers join together to make their own squad, Beebi’s Basteds, which does things their own unorthodox way but still manages to keep them alive. As the missions get harder, so do the men. They work their way up the military ranks faster than ever – giving their elite squad extra attention – good and bad. As they gear up for their biggest mission yet, none of the Basteds could imagine where their squad would end up – space.
