A mysterious footlocker washes up
on Livvy McKay’s shore. Minutes after recovering it she is assaulted by an
intruder. Wounded and unable to give chase, she is startled by a knock at the
front door. A stranger is looking to rent a boat from her business, McKAY’S
CHARTERS. Livvy doesn’t believe in coincidences. Especially when the stranger
is wearing black-just like her assailant.

Excerpt:
As she faced Jack, her
breath hitched. Under the stark glow from the hanging lantern his features were
beveled in shadows. Author? Scientist?
Not damn likely. Not with that countenance. Not with the taut command he held
over his body. He was a muscular animal coiled and ready for attack-and
certainly a better weapon to have around than the lobster buoy.

“Will a pork chop and
salad do?” she rasped.

The creature unwound and
rose to approach her. “Yes,” he said. “But there is something we have to do
first.”

In the tight confines of
the kitchen, he literally had her boxed up against the counter. Gripping the
granite edge she felt her elbow nudge a cookie jar.

“Wh-what’s that?”
He leaned in. My God, was
he going to choke her-or kiss her? Why was her heart pounding like a base drum?
And why was she not shoving him away?

Jack’s arm slid past her
hip to haul open the freezer door. A waft of frigid air tickled her nose as he
drew out an ice tray.

that eye.”
Popping a few cubes onto
a kitchen towel, he rolled the cloth up and gently pressed it to her face.
Helplessly, she stared up into his eyes. So much turmoil and intensity lurked
there. That maelstrom sucked her in. Hell,
it stimulated her. She wanted to launch her arms around his neck and smash her
body against this rugged vista. But no-she was paralyzed. And surely she was
delusional.

…Okay, that’s the official third-person
bio. Now let me tell you the real story. I’m an avid Tampa Bay Buccaneer fan,
which means I’m a masochist. I will eat anything with mozzarella on it. I’m
still mourning the fact that Buffy is gone. I write because I like the power.
In life we have so little control. When I write, I have total control of my
character’s fates. Ahhh, the power rush! LOL

I truly believe that I was a soul singer
in my former life, which is interesting because I can’t sing. But man, I can do
a mean lip-syncing rendition of Midnight Train To Georgia! 🙂
