    A soldier, a Malinois, and a stuntwoman walk onto a TV set . . . 
    Former Special Forces operator Sergeant Crew Gatlin takes everything in stride, even the career-ending incident that separated him from the Army, half a leg, and his beloved working dog, Havoc K027. Putting his life back together and lying low, he takes a job with A Breed Apart and is unexpectedly reunited with Havoc. It’s too good to be true—and the proof is in their first assignment: to work as a K-9 team for a television drama in Los Angeles. Miffed at being relegated to TV fodder, he’s willing to pay the price when he sees the stuntwoman. 
    Being a stunt double allows Vienna Foxcroft to fulfill her acting dream—with a side of MMA—and stay out of the limelight. The same one that plagued her childhood and put her through a nightmare scenario. Now, her tight-knit stunt team are the only ones she trusts. Then in walks Mr. Mountain-of-Muscle and his tough-as-nails dog, and Vienna has a bad feeling her life is about to turn upside down. 
    Ticked as they head overseas for a location shoot in Turkey, Crew guts it up—after all, he has Havoc again. Okay, and yeah—Vienna is going, too. When an attack sends the cast fleeing into the streets of Turkey, Vienna must face the demons of her past or be devoured by them. And Crew and Havoc are tested like never before. 
    Experience the high-octane thrill ride that is the first book in the A Breed Apart: Legacy series.

    Margaret Oliphant Wilson was born on 4th April 1828 in East Lothian in Scotland but spent her childhood in Midlothian, Glasgow and Liverpool.   
     
    She wrote from a young age and in 1849 had her first novel about the Scottish Free Church movement, a cause her parents sympathized with, published.  Her next, ‘Caleb Field’, a couple of years later, led to a lifelong association with Blackwood Magazine to which she contributed more than a 100 articles and reviews. 
     
    In May 1852, she married her cousin, Frank Wilson Oliphant, an artist working in stained glass, and settled in Camden, London. Together they had six children but tragically three died in infancy.   
     
    Unfortunately, Frank developed tuberculosis and so they moved in January 1859 to Florence, and then south to Rome, where he died. Margaret was devastated and was left with the burden of supporting herself and their three children.  
     
    She returned to England and with her prolific literary work increased her commercial reputation and the size of her reading audience.  Margaret worked tirelessly to sustain her popularity with her supernatural tales and historical fiction. 
     
    Unfortunately, her family life continued to be fraught with tragedies due to the further death of her one remaining daughter, financial ruin for her alcoholic brother and unfulfilled ambitions for her two sons followed by their deaths in 1890 and 1894.  She had settled in Windsor near Eton where her sons had been educated in 1866 and was buried there following her death on 25th June, 1897. 
     
    Despite the short time she lived in Scotland, much of her writing displays strong connections in terms of settings, themes and its oral tradition.   
     
    Margaret was admired for her range of supernatural tales, which resonated with her fascination for the afterlife and given her own experience, provided a sense of comfort to those grieving.   
     
    In this story a family’s return from India to Scotland is soon brought to a state of tension when their fragile son experiences hallucinations.  The pursuit of the truth brings many consequences.

    Book 10: Psychic VisionsWhen she was a child, Tavi's family was taken from her by a serial killer that was never caught. As an adult, she puts on the appearance of normalcy while burying herself in law enforcement as a detective. All her private energy is spent trying to find answers to what happened to her family, and preparing herself for the day she intends to exact revenge from the culprit. Jericho is just as much of a predator as Tavi is. He's caught the scent of old prey – a serial killer, one he's been a step behind all along. Discovering who the next victim is surprises him. Tavi is clearly a detective who gets her man – every time. The tug-of-war is on. She wants nothing to do with him; all he can think about is her. She doesn't want or need his protection; he can't leave her alone to save his life. Sparks fly between them the first time they meet, the last, and all the times in-between. Two hunters converge, set to follow their prey into the abyss if need be – right where he can take out two enemies for the price of one. He's cleaning up. Turning a new leaf. And wants no one left alive who can stop him.
