Stilettos and Outlaws

 

 


Fast-paced, funny and full of wild twists. Gemma is a force of nature in this quirky, action-packed ride through Arizona’s weirdest crimes.


Stilettos and Outlaws

Deputy Gemma Stone Book 4

by Gail Koger

Genre: Action, Romantic Comedy



My name is Gemma Stone and I’ve been a Maricopa County Sheriff’s Deputy for five years and nothing has prepared me for the return of the wild, wild West. A bloodthirsty outlaw gang straight out of the 1850’s is rustling cattle, robbing trains and killing people. These two-legged varmints are also linked to a dangerous enemy from my parents’ past who is determined to destroy our family.

My personal life got even more complicated. Off duty, I’m a ballroom dancer and my dad has always been supportive of my dancing, but to discover the reason why was jaw dropping. What other secrets was he hiding?

Dealing with hyperactive chickens blowing things up, an overprotective Brahma bull and Grandpa Reynolds suddenly parking his RV in our pasture makes me think Armageddon is coming to Arizona.

Law enforcement isn’t for the fainthearted. Are you crazy enough to enter my world?


Author’s note: I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher for way too many years and this novella contains some of the wilder incidents that occurred.

Howdy. My name is Gail Koger and once upon a time I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher. Too many years of wild requests, screwy questions, bizarre behavior and outrageous demands have left me with a permanent twitch and an uncontrollable craving for chocolate. I took up writing science fiction romance to keep from killing people. So far, it has worked.

The Book of Aesop: The New World Order

The Book of Aesop Book 1



★★★★★

“…an intriguing blend of political thriller with paranormal fiction, sci-fi, and romance.”

– Readers’ Favorite

 

It’s 2020 and our protagonist, a Mr Eric Pickles, has embarked on a coach journey when he meets the beautiful Gabrielle Smith-Rawlings. They sit together for the duration, getting acquainted, and he invites her to the house in the seaside town of Whitby in North Yorkshire where he’s staying, owned by Edith Crumble, the kind lady of the house and a dear friend of Eric’s.


Was it merely a coincidence that this beautiful young lady was on the same coach as our hero? Eric is an unassuming toy salesman, and Gabrielle works in Export and Innovations for the Department of International Trade in London. But do they, really? The readers later learn that, unbeknownst to each other, they both work for MI6 at their headquarters at Vauxhall Cross on the banks of the river Thames, and both are involved in secret programmes for the UK government.


There are several characters who all intertwine with Eric and Gabby, including Primrose Allgood, another resident of Edith’s house; Rupert Horatio Sniffles (Nighthawk), second in command to Eric (Hawk); Evelyn Trousseau (Gymslip), third in command under Rupert; Edgar Fairbanks (Eagle Eye), the head of the organization and Eric’s boss; Sir Robert Embury Jones (Fencer), Gabrielle’s boss; and many others with personal, romantic and business ties to our protagonist and his lady.
This exciting thriller contains a vicious attack on a lead character by an assassin who sacrifices her own life, the murder of a beloved character, several romances and ones in the making and plot twists that will have your head spinning.


Nothing is as it seems, as the story will take the readers on a rollercoaster of twists and turns involving several identities, nefarious plot lines and hidden dangers. It’s a book of romantic fantasy laced with espionage and mystery.

Eric, you are a very successful toy salesman and a most valued agent of MI6 with the destiny of planet Earth in your hands wearing your clothes with my mind and gifted with an intelligence that is way beyond your wildest dreams! What you must understand, Eric, is that the Ispirian people have searched every planet in every universe in the Milky Way and beyond for tens of thousands of years searching for you, the chosen one, Aesop.”


Just when you think you have it all figured out, think again. There are 3 more books in the Aesop series, so stay tuned for more mystery and romance!

TEASER REVEAL! Soft Tissue Damage by Lilith Vincent releases September 24!

 




TEASER REVEAL! Soft Tissue Damage by Lilith Vincent releases September 24!
 
I put my hands on Elena’s waist and slowly back her against a bookcase. “You didn’t tell Leon about our kiss?”
Elena shakes her head. She's in the circle of my arms with my head bent over her.
“Why didn’t you tell him?”  
“We made a mistake because of the intense situation.” But she looks conflicted. Because she doesn’t know what she wants, or because she doesn’t know if she’s allowed to have it?
I bend my head lower toward her lips and whisper, “Was it a mistake?”
Is there a chance she doesn’t want Leon, and she wants me instead? Her mouth is parted, and her eyes are filled with longing. Does she ever look at Leon like this, or is this needy expression just for me? We’re so close that her face is just inches from mine. 
 “Elena, how attached are you to my son?”
I know what I’d say if she wasn’t dating my son. Be a good girl and tip those pretty lips up for a kiss. But first I have to know how she feels.
 “Cullan…” she breathes.
I cup her jaw and slide my thumb over her full lips. Elena closes her eyes and arches her throat as I touch her, and desire pours through me. She shouldn’t say my name like that and respond to my touch like that if she wants me to back off. 
I have to know if I have a chance with her. “Tell me. How much do you really want my son?”
