and... unexpected corpses, follow her adventures in this murder mystery series!
Things
are heating up between our favorite fitness instructor and homicide lieutenant

with a divorce or marriage. Some of the characters may or may not have been
legally separated. Whatever’s going on, Minx finds herself embroiled in another
dangerous case.

DIVORCE... L.A. STYLE
Minx Tobin's latest client, Magda Boswell, complains that her new
husband wants her dead. But maybe it's the old husband Magda should worry
about. Or perhaps the old husband's new wife harbors murderous thoughts. Then
again, Magda's longstanding boyfriend isn't too devoted, either. Minx gets
mixed up in convoluted marital problems that just might end up in death... for
her.
Los Angeles homicide lieutenant Gabe Harris can't believe his good luck.
Not only does he win twenty thousand dollars, but more important, he persuades
Minx to take a chance on him. But when Minx gets involved in another murder
case, he finds the odds for her survival are not in her favor.

Here is a book trailer for THE DUPLICITOUS DIVORCE:
Real
life tidbit: I enjoy going to Las Vegas. What a great place to unwind! Minx,
new to Los Angeles, hasn’t taken the drive over to Las Vegas until she receives
tickets to a show given to her by one of her clients.
For
my first visit, I stayed at the New York New York Hotel. I also tried the
roller coaster, just as Minx and her good friend Sadie does. All I can say
is--Wow! Below is a scene where you can experience how Minx and I felt!
The trip to the Entertainment Capital of the World
took about five hours. Sadie had insisted on driving and Minx gladly took her
up on her offer. Once they arrived in Las Vegas, Minx was even more glad.
Traffic on that hugely wide and famous Strip was absolutely insane.
By the time they reached their hotel, New York-New
York, it was two o’clock. They’d requested early check in, dropped off their
suitcases, and were ready to play tourist and see the sights.
First up was the Roller Coaster that circled the
familiar skyline of New York. Strapped into the seat with Sadie by her side,
Minx coasted up high in the air, dropped back down, then turned and twisted one
hundred eighty degrees--to make for the longest few minutes of her life.
After the ride was over, Minx walked on wobbly legs.
Good thing she hadn’t eaten lunch. Her stomach would’ve been hard pressed not
to eject its contents.
Sadie, on the other hand, took the coaster ride like
a pro. “That was fun. Wanna go again?”
“Um, no.”
I hope you enjoy Minx and Gabe’s adventures. There are lots more surprises in store for them as
the series progresses. Case Number Four is THE VIRTUAL VALENTINE.
Happy reading,
