What are Sundays for if not reading? My romantic suspense releases on November 7th. Here’s a excerpt to entice you.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Off<\/a><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

Her brows rose. \u201cI\u2019m smart enough to know you\u2019ve got a conflict of interest. You need to decide whether you can proceed fairly and objectively. Because yes, I believe her. Why would she lie to us?\u201d<\/p>\n

God help him, her chin went up. Her eyes flashed with her need to take him down a peg. His fingers clenched inside his pockets. Her challenge, the heat of it, inspired absolute honesty.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

\u201cBecause anyone who knows you or who\u2019s familiar with your work knows you\u2019ll do whatever it takes, go balls to the wall, to champion a victimized young woman from the Low Track. And if taking sides hands you a chance to take down the man who\u2019s determined to clean up the Downtown Eastside, all the better. Jason Drummond is pain in your ass. Of course, they came to you.\u201d And hell, since he was destroying any chance at a relationship he might as well go for it. \u201cAnd I don\u2019t know what your history is with Marnie, but you\u2019re doing it as much for her as you are for Kellie. So maybe I need to be the one asking, how objective are you?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou see me as a do-gooder who doesn\u2019t question facts, just reacts. Part of my job requires cutting through all the bullshit and believe me, I hear a lot of it. I\u2019m a great lie-detector. Don\u2019t confuse nonjudgmental with sucker. And, yes, Marnie is important to me. But I can be her friend and know she\u2019s not perfect, far from it. I know even if I believe Kellie about paternity, I\u2019ll need to double check anything coming out of Marnie\u2019s mouth.\u201d She inhaled a deep breath. Let it out. \u201cBecause…Marnie…she doesn\u2019t have the greatest track record with the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

The dejection in her tone tugged at him. He resisted moving in closer. She had scoffed \"Off<\/a>away all his attempts to explain Tiffany. She didn\u2019t want to believe him. Or in him. \u201cJust because Jason is a friend of mine doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m not interested in getting to the truth.\u201d He pointed at the door. \u201cOr doing what\u2019s best for that child in there. So let\u2019s agree we both have agendas, but we\u2019re most interested in the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Available for pre-order from Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Coming November 7th from The Wild Rose Press<\/a>.<\/p>\n
