Sinossi

‘Rescuing Richard’ is a breathless quest that sweeps the reader from the blood-soaked battlefields of Zululand to the corridors of power in Regency London. Richard is astonished when Shaka appoints him to his inner council, where he vies for influence with his friend, Napoleon Bonaparte. Drawn to a feisty, intelligent young Zulu woman, Richard wrestles with his conscience while confronting betrayal and colonial adventurers exploiting the land he is sworn to protect. Having helped equip the Zulu army with artillery, he is sent as ambassador to the court of King George, where he defends Zulu interests while trying to help an old acquaintance escape an abusive relationship.

    Sadie Simoneaux is finally living her dream of opening a bookstore in her hometown. Equal parts childhood fantasy and a much-needed exit from the hustle culture of tech startups, Sadie has the passion, the plan, and the perfect historic building. All she needs is someone to renovate it. 
     
    Peyton Broussard is Sadie's high school friend and friendly rival, and the town's only contractor. Rehabbing one of Duchesne's oldest buildings is a dream job. Helping Sadie reno the apartment upstairs on a shoestring budget isn't so bad either. But for once, Peyton's the expert and Sadie's the one asking for help. 
     
    Their competitive banter and long hours quickly turn their professional relationship personal until developers offer Sadie a fast exit and a fat check. If she cashes in, what happens to the love she's just starting to build?

    Some scars run deeper than others 
    Detective Erin O’Reilly is no stranger to close calls. She and her K-9 Rolf have dodged more than their share of blades, blasts, and bullets as they’ve taken on the worst New York City has to offer. But the last perp came a little too close, leaving one of Erin’s fellow officers with a bullet-hole in his head and her own brain scrambled. 
    Erin needs a break, but as her long-running infiltration of the O’Malley gang enters its final act, she can’t afford to slack off. And that’s not her only headache. When a former convict turned pizza deliveryman has his skull crushed in a college parking garage, an apparent mugging may be something much more sinister. Banging her head against one problem after another, Erin faces obstacles both on the street and in herself. She’ll have to break through to the answers before her own brain lets her down.

What happens when the poor, oppressed slaves are given their freedom? Funny you should ask ....
