She Doesn't Miss A Thing
I loved writing the character of Kerrie Ann. In crafting a female vigilante, she had to have a compelling reason to fight. She also had to be pretty smart to figure out when things were awry. Kerrie Ann King walked a serious tight rope. On one hand, she desperately wanted to just be the grieving widow. On the other, she wanted justice. Caught in the middle was her re-emerging desire for her best friend. A complex woman I look forward to writing more of.
Book Excerpt
Justice from the Shadows
When I walked into the house, a well-dressed man with salt-and-pepper hair sat in the living room. He stood as I approached.
“You must be Kerrie Ann.” He extended his hand. “My name is Walter.”
“Nice to meet you.” I slipped my hand into his. Right away, I noticed the quality cuff link and the tattoo peeking out from his shirt sleeve.
He gave me a knowing smile. “A mistake of my youth.”
Mistake, my ass. What else was he hiding beneath the elegant exterior? He was a little too debonair for my mother. I wasn’t saying she wasn’t good enough for him. On the contrary, the man was too damn slick.
Thankfully, Mom came into the room and saved me from voicing my opinion in front of him. “I see you’ve met Walter.”
Forcing a smile, I said, “Yes. And I’m glad you won’t be alone tonight. Will you walk me out, Mom?”
