So, this Teaser game has been going around Twitter all week, and after posting these answers yesterday it occurred to me you might like to know them too! Here are five teasers for A Savage Trick:
My hero, Lieutenant Patrick “Trick” Quinn, is a Zen-like Chicago firefighter, who leads the perfect life: a career he loves, a wife of 19 years and two adorable daughters.
He won the lottery a few years back, and after a lot of marital arguing over whether to spend it or save it, the $4 million is now held in trust for his daughters.
One unremarkable day a process server arrives at the firehouse and hands Trick court papers: a petition for divorce and a temporary restraining order for alleged physical and sexual abuse of his family.
Amid the swift and vicious citywide backlash Trick turns to brothers, Jace and Sean for help proving this is a malicious set up.
My heroine, Muslim-American Zamira Bey is the court-ordered supervisor who joins her bestie, Gretch to discover the twisted secret behind the Quinn marriage, just as the Chicago Islamic community comes under attack.
A Savage Trick, is the third book in my Damaged Heroes series and due out in Spring, 2019. The manuscript is presently with my supremely gifted editor, Anya Kagan of Touchstone Editing. If you’d like to catch up on the series: Tall, Dark and Damaged is the first book, and Capturing the Queen is second. Also! Don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter, because those lucky subscribers get to see my cover reveal first!
Popping in to let you know I’m busy revising A Savage Trick, (Book 3 in my Damaged Heroes Series,) which is due to my editor on November 26th. Once I get her comments back I’ll begin creating the cover, which is always my favorite part of the publishing process. I’ll post the finished result in my newsletter, so make sure to sign up and be the first to see my new cover!
Have yourselves a lovely holiday season filled with joy and peace.
I’ll be signing all three novels on Oct 18th, at the Audubon Country Club in Naples, FL. I’ve also been invited to several local holiday bazaars in Southwest FL which I am currently working into my schedule. Make sure you’ve signed up for my newsletter to the the latest updates!
My romantic suspense debut, Locked, Loaded and Lying is on sale all this week! If you haven’t read this riveting who-done-it hurry and download your copy!
This story finaled in the 2011 RWA Golden Heart awards, the most prestigious romance contest in the nation for unpublished writers. (Ah, the memories!) Here’s what bestselling romantic suspense author, Brenda Novak said:
“An impressive debut! This book has everything readers crave: believable, endearing characters, an intriguing conflict and plenty of heart. Don’t miss LOCKED, LOADED & LYING.”Brenda Novak
I finished Book Three in my Damaged Heroes Series! For some reason, this far into my career, A Savage Trick was the hardest first draft I’ve ever written, clocking in three times longer than my other novels.
The manuscript is due to my editor next Monday, so bear with me as I scramble towards that deadline, then I’ll be back to give you some snippets and blurbs!
Also, now is the time to make sure you’re on my newsletter list, because I’ll be sending out free Advanced Reader Copies and giving away swag in the months to come. Don’t miss out!
Here I am at the RWC18 book signing with Kristan Higgins last week! Ten romance authors met 125 fun, energetic readers at the 3rd Annual Romance, Wine and Chocolate event created by Lorelei’s Lit Lair and hosted by the Alafaya Library in Orlando. Tickets were free and sold out in twelve hours, so if you want to go next year, join Lorelei’s mailing list before July 1st, 2019!
Besides hanging with Kristan, my favorite moment was when six consecutive readers came up and said, “I’d like to buy all your books, please.” Wow! A glimpse of what it’s like to be famous!
Check out the huge author names I am book signing with on Aug 31st in Orlando! Thanks to Lorelei’s Lit Lair I’m part of the 3rd AnnualRomance, Wine and Chocolate Reader Event. The keynote speaker is my favorite romance author ever, 2018 Rita Winner, Kristan Higgins. (I have dubbed myself her “#1 Stalker Fan,” and yes, she knows this and has yet to issue a restraining order, so it’s all good!)
Besides hearing from Kristan, there will be free wine and chocolate samples, all authors are bringing cool swag giveaways and I’m signing all three novels. The bad news: this free event sold out within hours, but they do have a waitlist. Can’t hurt to sign up, right? If you aren’t able to be there then the next best way to stay connected with me is through my newsletter. Next month I’ll give my subscribers have an exclusive excerpt of A Savage Trick, which is Book Three in my Damaged Heroes Series.

Seriously, this is a biggie! Capturing the Queenis a finalist in the National Excellence in Romance Fiction Awards. The NERFA winner will be announced in early July; wish me luck! A few months ago Capturing the Queen ended up taking second place in the New England Reader’s Choice contest. (If you haven’t read this romantic suspense yet enjoy the first three chapters!)
Meanwhile, I’m busy, busy, busy writing the next book in the Damaged Heroes Series, which will be: A Savage Trick. As soon as I figure out a bit more of the plot I’ll pass on some details soon, pinkie swear.

This is SO fun! Have you heard of Book+Main? It’s a free website introducing romance readers to authors in a speed dating type setting. You browse snippets of novels (called bites) that authors have posted and hopefully you’ll discover a new-to-you favorite!
I’ve just spent a totally addictive afternoon choosing and uploading an excerpt from each of my novels and of course, perusing photography websites for the perfect picture to accompany each ‘bite.’ This is a hoot! Check it out and let me know what you think.
And I’d appreciate any suggestions on what to upload next. What scenes from my novels caught your attention?
