A Good Killing

Anna Curtis is back in her hometown. With just a short time before what should have been her wedding day, Anna is back home to Michigan- a place she has not visited for years. Why is she back? Her baby sister needs her.

Jody has been accused of killing the local hero, the all around nice guy, the man of the town- Coach Owen Fowler. Anna is stunned- why would her sister be accused of this? How is she going to find the truth- since Jody is being evasive and the town is ready to run both Curtis women out on the first thing leaving! Anna has to use all her skills and knowledge about the law as she takes on her sister’s case- leaving her prosecutor chair behind and slipping into the defense chair. Because she knows her sister did not kill Coach Owen Fowler. Or does she?

With help from a former friend, Cooper Bolden, Anna sets out to find the truth about Jody, about who killed Owen and to stand her ground against the town.  Continue reading

{Giveaway} The Idea of Love by Patti Callahan Henry

giveaway giveaway

It’s only been in the past 3 years that I began reading Patti Callahan Henry’s books- but it feels like I have been reading them all my life. My first one, AND THEN I FOUND YOU, was probably the more serious of the ones I’ve read of hers- considering that it was based on a factual family story. Then last year THE STORIES WE TELL kept me company as I relaxed with a cool drink. And, in June (June 23rd to be exact) it’ll be time for THE IDEA OF LOVE. Having already read it- it’s going to be the right book for the pool and beach- the perfect bit of fluff in your sunshine-day!

And thanks to Patti’s publicists- Traveling With T has a copy to give to a lucky reader! Continue reading

Be Afraid

Summary from Goodreads:

The Fear Is Terrifying

When police rescue five-year-old Jenna Thompson from the dark closet where she’s been held captive for days, they tell her she’s a lucky girl. Compared to the rest of her family, it’s true. But even with their killer dead of an overdose, Jenna is still trying to find peace twenty-five years later.

But The Truth

On leave from her forensic artist job, Jenna returns to Nashville, the city where she lost so much. Instead of closure, she finds a new horror. Detective Rick Morgan needs Jenna’s expertise in identifying the skeletal remains of a young child. The case jogs hazy half-buried memories–and a nagging dread that Jenna’s ordeal hasn’t ended.

Is Even Worse

Now other women are dying. And as the links between these brutal killings and Jenna’s past becomes clear, she knows this time, a madman will leave no survivors. .

 

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

Having read COVER YOUR EYES last year (liking it- but not just running around and screaming “READ THIS BOOK” to everyone I knew), I wanted to give Mary another shot. When BE AFRAID came to my house, I was ready! Continue reading

giveaway giveaway

So, read Linda’s Q&A- then check out the giveaway! 🙂

 

Mini Q&A with Linda Lael Miller

Q: THE MARRIAGE SEASON is the 3rd book in your new Brides of Bliss County series. What would you tell someone who is coming to Mustang Creek for the first time? Is there anything you want first time readers to know about Bex, Hadleigh, and Melody before they jump into THE MARRIAGE SEASON?

A:  Mustang Creek is a small town with a rich western past and full of some pretty colorful characters. Situated in scenic Bliss County, Wyoming this is a tight-knit community with old-fashioned charm and yet also home to artists (like Melody and Hadleigh) and innovative young professionals (like Bex and her forever man, Tate, who is a pilot).

Hadleigh, Mel and Bex go back to fast friends in grade school, and they have endured laughter and tears together, but always been in each other’s corner, and their vow to never settle for anyone less than the perfect (for them, because all know there is no such thing as a perfect man—well, or woman either!) partner is what sparked the series.
