Book Launch

Provoked to Kill, (the third in the Simone Biaz series) has been launched! TODAY. It is available on Amazon as an ebook! Now! January 3, 2021.  

My excitement is turned up on high, and I'm smiling. Like a new parent.

What goes through my mind is this idea of wanting each book I write to be better than the last one, and I believe, Provoked to Kill is my best writing yet. Hope you'll agree.

Here, a single mom with an adopted teen has her hands full. Besides that, she has a speaking career that includes ventriloquist. And then she takes on solving a murder mystery of a homeless man. Does anyone in the community really care that much about how he died, or who did it and why?

Simone Biaz doesn't look like a hero, and most days she's too busy to consider that she is one. But she has the courage to take on bullies, and snakes, and go after killers. Still, she is anxious and alarmed about her father and grandmother moving next door to her.

I love this character, and her problem teenager, Pepper. Hope you will too.

So celebrate with me with a glass of your preferred brew and go to  my page at Amazon and pick up your ebook copy. I hope you will.

 Oh, and if you enjoy the read, please feel free to leave a review.

Thank you so much,

Judy

Launching A New Murder Mystery

Mother and daughter rely on each other to solve a murder and stay alive

Simone Biaz, a single mom, wants to raise her adopted teenage daughter, Pepper, while living a somewhat normal life. Yet, their lives have been anything but normal; Simone’s career is throwing her voice, and before the adoption, Pepper lived in hiding at an old theater.

As the two are riding bicycles in South Carolina, Pepper discovers a body. The victim, like Pepper, had been homeless. Now, all chances for normalcy are as remote as eating grits without moving your lips.

Simone’s life is in danger as she searches for what happened. Everyone involved is lying. It might be easier to find talking turnips than someone who tells the truth. Time is running out. Will she find the killer before another victim is murdered?

If you like complex characters, funny, tender moments, and suspense with romance, you’ll love this captivating story.

                        Provoked to Kill will be available for purchase January 4, 2021

Reading and Cuddling

M y little Max is waiting patiently for me to prop myself on the couch with him and dive into a riveting cozy suspense, my favorite kind of book.

He’s a good reading partner. What makes a good reading partner?

He doesn’t interrupt with questions.

He cuddles well.

He doesn’t demand that I read to him out loud.

He’s well versed at napping, and does it extremely well.

He’s not picky about his sleep position, even when his head dangles off the end of the sofa.

He doesn’t accuse me of taking up too much space, nor does he do a lot of wiggling.

He makes me smile. And so does an intriguing book, like, The Killer Show, or Kill for Justice. https://amzn.to/2TL2wuw

Next time, I’ll post a list of books by other authors, I’ve read during this Covid oddessy, and tell you which ones I liked best.

Happy reading,

Judy
