Most summers I’m busy outside in my garden, taking care of bees or chickens, or getting out to paddleboard or hike. Summer is also event season for my food truck. So, I’m excited to have some bookish things going on this year.
I have an audiobook for The Killer Between Us in production right now, and it’s been fun to listen to my story as the narrator brings it to life. I’m working with Mary Ann Aude for the narration and she’s doing such an amazing job! I was driving through Newport the other day, where the story is set, and listening to the chapters. The audiobook should be out later this summer. We plan to work together on my Ridge City Series and other books, and I can’t wait to share those.
I’m working on my next release in the Ridge City Series, More Than Justice (Book 4) which will release next month. I also published a separate Trilogy with the first three books – you can view that here.
Between all that, I had a fun project – a domestic thriller called The Perfect Husband. It’s a fast read with lots of suspense. Like The Killer Between Us, it has some romantic tension – in a way you could say both books have a little romance but there’s a big helping of doubt and suspicion thrown in. That’s what I love about domestic thrillers!
She wakes from a coma to a life that doesn’t feel right and a husband she doesn’t recognize. Is he lying to her? What’s really going on?
Megan wakes in the hospital after a horrible car accident six weeks prior. At least, this is what she’s told. Eli is by all appearances the perfect husband, but everything feels wrong. Why does the doctor speak to Eli alone, and why does the hospital wing seem deserted?
Eli presents evidence of their marriage and life together, and tells her how they’re building a house by the river. Yet her few emerging memories show a very different life. Everyone she meets seems to be in on it, unless she’s suffering from paranoia due to her brain injury. She can’t trust herself or anyone else. When they return “home” to their house-in-progress, Megan plays a double agent, working with “Eli” to rebuild her life while trying to uncover the truth. Why would he do this? Does she know something she shouldn’t?
Ellison is the key to her past and future, even if she can’t trust him. He has an explanation for everything until new answers lead to an even more twisted story. Part of her wants to relax into this dream life he’s built, but can she live a lie? Can she love a man with hidden motives? What will she have to do to uncover the truth and learn her true identity?
Summer is just begun so I look forward to sharing these projects and possibly starting more – and getting in some reading time!
