    Coloring book creator and Washington, DC, bookstore owner Florrie Fox is attending the wedding of her wealthy boss and a famous romance author, who are taking their vows—for the second time—on the grounds of the gorgeous Maxwell mansion.  But it soon becomes clear that the soothing vibe of coloring books is very different from the stress and backstabbing in some corners of the literary world. 
     
     
      
    Arthur Bedlingham, for example, barely makes a living despite the many awards he's won—and his chances for better sales haven't been helped by the vicious review he just got from another guest at the party. Then there's an ex-FBI agent whose popular thrillers are a magnet for female fans; a less-successful romance writer; and an ambitious waitress who's intent on a career in journalism. 
     
     
      
    When Arthur's assistant, an aspiring writer, is murdered during the festivities, Florrie realizes this is no color-by-numbers case, and she'll have to sort out the complicated secrets among this creative crowd of suspects . . .

    Laurie Lisa's latest audiobook is now available! 
    Hollister McClane, is a captivating, fun, and lighthearted picaresque mixing crime fiction with a bit of good old-fashioned Southern charm. Hollister’s wild adventures will keep you turning pages non-stop! 
    A small-town Southern Missouri beauty (if she does say so herself), Hollister has an uncanny knack for accidentally robbing banks, convenience stores, and possibly even a drug cartel. Toss in a couple of grand theft autos—purely by accident, of course—but she wouldn’t hurt a fly. Not even when Ruger falls into her lap. 
    Savvy, self-taught, and eternally optimistic, Hollister hitchhikes, runs, and drives her way across America’s heartland, stumbling into one misadventure after another. After unintentionally robbing her first bank dressed as Uncle Sam, she decides life on the run must be fate. And lucky for her, she’s a genius at disguises (if she does say so herself). 
    Hollister always tries to put her ill-gotten gains to good use, but somehow, the money never seems to stick. Meanwhile, a few complications keep popping up: the law, the lovers, the three not-quite-ex-husbands, the babies, and, of course, world-weary Mama. And when she finally does use that gun—well, let’s just say it’s pointed a little too close to home. 
    BOOK REVIEWS 
    5* "A fun romp! . . . With so many who-done-it books out there and trashy romance and sci-fi, it is refreshing to just sit down and read a fun tale of a sweet young girl making her way thru the good ‘ol U.S. of A. Hollister has a great spirit and solid Southern values, and best of all, she loves her mama!" 
    5* "Entertaining, Enthralling, and Brilliantly Written: A MUST READ OF 2021! . . . This was a truly engaging read. Author Laurie Lisa hits it out of the park once more."

    After a bad day at work, accountant Dave Smith has one too many at the bar. A seemingly normal traffic stop later that evening rips him away from his wife and kids and into servitude. He has been drafted into Megacorp Greenrock Solutions’ newest business venture. A core of mercenaries established to provide a service for the purpose of killing for profit. 
    These aren’t just any mercenaries. Greenrock built a lab to genetically enhance their assassins, giving them super-human strength and increased capacity for violence. Unknown to their captors, the enhancements also give them the ability to join their minds together into a collective. 
    Greenrock’s deeds have attracted the attention of law enforcement, however. There are a group of detectives putting the pieces together and closing in on Greenrock. 
    Dave and his band of enhanced conscripts are also using their shared mind to work out ways to free themselves. 
    The lab’s directors will use any means to protect their investments. In many ways they are more vile than the assassins they produce. 
    Is this a fight anyone can win?
