The Birth of a Series
After I finished Hurricane Crimes and even after publishing
it, I hadn’t planned on writing a sequel, let alone a series. But when readers
started to ask what happened before the story and what would happen next, I sat
back to think about the possibility. I had ended Hurricane Crimes in a way that
I was happy about for a short romantic-suspense. Then I looked closer at the
plot and realized something major. When Hurricane Crimes ends, Beth and Donovan
had caught one of the killers who murdered Donovan’s brother, but one was still
at large. How could I end a story like that with no real closure? I couldn’t!
(Technically, I did, but I couldn’t keep it that way.)
The moment I realized I had to continue the story, I
immediately knew I would keep the disaster theme for the sequel. So say “Hello”
to SEISMIC CRIMES!
The idea to turn this into several books came to mind a
moment later, and I knew how to link each one with criminals and disasters. And
there you have it: The Disaster Crimes Series was born.

An Internal Affairs Investigator was murdered and his brother, Donovan Goldwyn, was framed. Now Donovan is desperate to prove his innocence. And the one person who can do that is the woman who saved him from a deadly hurricane—Beth Kennedy. From the moment their fates intertwined, passion consumed him. He wants her in his arms. More, he wants her by his side in his darkest moments.
Beth Kennedy may not know everything about Donovan, but she can’t deny what she feels for him. It’s her love for him that pushes her to do whatever she has to do to help him get justice, including putting herself in a criminal’s crosshairs.
When a tip reveals the killer's location, they travel to California, but then an earthquake of catastrophic proportions separates them. As aftershocks roll the land, Beth and Donovan have to endure dangerous conditions while trying to find their way back to one another. Will they reunite and find the killer, or will they lose everything?
