Auf’d Now Available!

Auf’d Now Available!

The second book in The Belinda & Bennett Mysteries, Auf’d, is finally here! Here’s the scoop on Belinda’s second (mis)adventure: Lending a hand to a charity fashion show sounded like such fun. Now if only Belinda’s idea of a good time included a smothered designer and trouble with Bennett. While Belinda balances opening a business and a house reno, haute couture Portside-style lands her in one hot mess of runway intrigue and man drama. It seems not everyone at this show is what they claim to be – or even who. You can buy Auf’d now as an ebook at […]

Rocket Science to YA SF: An Interview With Mindjack Trilogy Writer Susan Kaye Quinn

Rocket Science to YA SF: An Interview With Mindjack Trilogy Writer Susan Kaye Quinn

Susan Kaye Quinn’s YA sci-fi Mindjack Trilogy is one of my fantabulous browsing finds. Hopping from book to book, the word “mindjacker” kept grabbing my attention, and the description for Open Minds, the first book in the trilogy, intrigued me even more: When everyone reads minds, a secret is a dangerous thing to keep.

Zeros are outcasts who can’t be trusted, leaving her no chance with Raf, a regular mindreader and the best friend she secretly loves. When she accidentally controls Raf’s mind and nearly […]

Pure joy swelled in her chest and she pressed down on the accelerator. Belinda skidded into […]
