Today I've got not one, but two books to share with you. And they are both romantic suspense, my favorite. And check out these covers. They are stunning. I hope you enjoy finding out more about Maguire's Corner Novels.

From ALREADY HOME...
Coffee shop owner Maggie Maguire doesn’t trust the new police chief her father hired to protect Maguire’s Corner. He’s a stranger, cold, bossy and annoyingly handsome. But, Maggie’s witnessed a serious crime and now someone’s trying to kill her. The man that aggravates her most might be the only one that can help her.
Police Chief Jack Munro likes his new job and his new town, and unfortunately he also likes the stubborn but beautiful town sweetheart. His self-imposed hands-off Maggie policy is about to be put to the ultimate test when he must keep her close to protect her while he tracks down a ruthless killer.
Determined to ignore Jack’s charms, Maggie attempts to help him unravel the mystery but when their lives hang in the balance she must decide how much she’s willing to risk to save the man she suddenly can’t resist.
From ONE GOOD CATCH...
Ignoring a recent trauma that affects her everyday life, ER Doctor Kate Maguire engages in some high risk activities, but these situations aren’t enough to feed her edginess. She needs something more. When her brother’s high school best friend comes back to town, it’s her chance for a ‘no strings attached’ fling with the man who still headlines all her best dreams.
Rhys MacGrath’s days of one-night-stands are long over. The pro-football player might be side-lined at rehab for a shoulder injury, but that doesn’t mean he can’t admire and desire the all-grown-up, so-damn-hot, version of the tomboy he once knew. His sudden interest in Kate might aggravate his best friend, but it’s her indifference that drives Rhys crazy.
Everything heats up when Kate’s nosy nature puts her in the line of fire of an arsonist forcing Kate and Rhys to deal with more than just the sparks igniting between them.
Excerpt ~
From ONE GOOD CATCH...
Kate crossed her arms. “I’m not complicated.”“Oh yes, you are. Incredibly complicated. And off limits.”
“Look, it was just a kiss. If you can’t handle a little first base, it’s your problem, not mine.”
Rhys stopped in front of her, shaking his head. “What?”
“I’m not some kid anymore, Rhys. I can kiss whomever I want. And I do. If you want to continue living by my brother’s rules, then I suggest you head back to the bar.”
“I guess I have more respect for Steve than to try and feel up his sister after being back in town for less than a day.”
“That’s fine. Whatever helps you sleep at night.”
“Fine. I’ll sleep just fine.”
“Then, goodnight.”
“Goodnight,” he said.
Rhys reached for her, his fingers tangling in her hair. He pulled her in to kiss her again. Kate enjoyed this kiss even more than the first one. It was full of his exasperation, plus his inevitable surrender, making it incredibly hot. Her victory was intoxicating.

As a teen, her favorite genres to curl up with were romance and mysteries. When she started to create her own stories, they were the perfect fit.

Hello, Sherry. Actually, with InkSpell Publishing, I was very lucky to work closely with their cover artist to create a theme for the series. I'm so happy with the way they turned out.
DeleteThank you for asking about them!

Good question, Sherry! When I first published, you could make suggestions up front, but then you were pretty much stuck with what you got. I was so nervous when I opened up the file on my first cover, but it wasn't awful! I was relieved. Since then I have self-published and have total creative control, but it is still hard to find the images you want. And I'm a huge romantic suspense lover, too. Thanks for joining us!
