BLIND FAITH a Top Pick!

RT Book Reviews just gave BLIND FAITH 4 1/2 stars and a Top Pick!

Here’s what they had to say:

This story is so fast paced with so many mesmerizing characters, “fantastic” is not high enough praise. Lyons proves once again that she is a master of suspense and nontraditional romance.

Sarah Durandt watches the monster who confessed to killing her son and husband put to death. She wants nothing more than for the crazed killer to tell her where her family is buried, but Damian Wright offers her nothing but a pitiful smile, as if Sarah is the true victim.

Meanwhile, her attorney wants something from her and plans to do whatever it takes to get it, as FBI agent Caitlyn Tierney uncovers proof that the evidence was wrong in the Wright case. It seems somebody staged a cover-up that involves everyone from the police to the FBI to a Russian mob member who’s about to walk away a free man. And Caitlyn must join forces with a frightened widow to uncover the truth and bring the real killers to justice while Sarah continues her search for Sam and Josh. (LEGACY, Mar., 392 pp., $13.99)

SLEIGHT OF HAND is finally here!

Hart and Drake, Book #2


#1 New York Times Bestseller Sandra Brown praised the first Hart and Drake book, NERVES OF STEEL, as “the perfect blend of romance and suspense. My kind of read.”

Hart and Drake are back in SLEIGHT OF HAND, doing what they do best: protecting the innocent, no matter the cost.

“There’s an oath doctors take,” Detective Mickey Drake said.
“Primum non noncere,” the shrink supplied. “First do no harm.”

Two months ago Dr. Cassandra Hart was forced to kill a man. The man who murdered her best friend, almost killed Drake and seriously wounded her. Now she’s back at work in her Pittsburgh ER, but nothing seems the same.

When she fears that a young boy is being abused by his “perfect” mother, her friends and colleagues worry that she’s returned to work too soon, imagining dangers that don’t exist. Others accuse her of trying to cover up her own alleged mistakes in the boy’s treatment by making a false report of abuse.

Drake’s facing problems of his own, trying to cope with the aftermath of the night two months ago when his passion for Cassie led to a confrontation with a killer. He’s on desk duty, reviewing cold cases, and delves into the homicide case that killed his father seven years ago. But after so long, what good can he do, a cop without a gun?

The stakes escalate when Cassie is almost killed and Drake finds evidence that the killer his father was tracking might be planning to strike again–this time targeting a young boy.

With the lives of two children at stake, how can they walk away?
