The Hit

Katrine Brannick was on the run. When she stabbed a man in self-defense, the world as she knew it ended. She went in search of a man she'd never met looking for a way to finish what she'd started.
John Currin existed only for vengeance.
Life took an unexpected turn for both as they sought retribution upon the same man. But trying to get satisfaction and escape the vast network of Rival Families and Organized Crime exposed secrets from a past long dead. Secrets that bound them. Secrets that would tear them apart.
John's need to protect her became entwined in his need for revenge; his desire to save her became his only hope for redemption.
They both knew there could be no loose ends in this business.
There would be a Hit.

I am a graduate of Rutgers University in New Brunswick New Jersey. I was born and raised in New Jersey so I am very much a city slicker. I moved to Florida to marry my sweetheart after college and marveled at how little there was to do and how much one had to drive to do it! But due to a job change and an abrupt move, we settled in Austin, Texas where the mottos is 'Keep Austin Weird' and I try my best to uphold it!
I am the mother of 2 great kids and though writing has always been a pursuit I was interested in, being a Mommy got in the way for quite a few years. I decided I would give it a fair shake in 2009 and I haven't been able to quit since. I have 4 completed novels and I have 4 additional started novels plus 2 sequels all in various stages of gestation. I have a hard time stopping my ideas and when a seemingly great idea hits me - typically just as I am attempting to fall asleep - I am compelled to start an outline.
My 2 great talents are:
1. My remarkable ablilty to remember names - which has served me well.
2. My ability to remember lyrics from every song I ever heard in the 70's and 80's - which has not helped me in the slightest.
I have a quirky sense of humor and sometimes TV commercials crack me up.
I like the notion of things being 'meant to be' or somehow touched by the unexplainable. I also like the effect music has on one's state of mind and the memories a song can recall.
