A Tasty Murder
According to the other cops, Rosie Epstein would have been a great detective if she'd only had balls. The thirty-two-year-old dealt with the obnoxious males of the Boston Police Department for ten years before a rich kid in a Lincoln ruined her knee and ended her career. Yet, just as she settles in for a life of painkillers and whiskey, the murder of a botanist and the kidnapping of his Chinese assistant forces her to shove a gun and a gold badge back into her purse. A Tasty Murder, set in Boston in 1975, is a mystery wrapped around a flavor-enhancing spray made from an orchid that has no fragrance, the murder of its discoverer, and the power to kill wielded by a conglomerate of wealthy cattle ranchers in Texas. Rosie's disdain for government and her "as good as any man" attitude have molded her into a cop, cold when she has to be, who doesn't hesitate to use her gun, but is constantly on the lookout for love.
The Wise Ass
When Wise Guys meet the Wise Ass and friends, all hell breaks loose. After his brothers are murdered, a New York mob lawyer testifies against his associates and is forced to enter WITSEC (the Witness Protection Program). He and his wife are relocated to a rural area outside a small town in Colorado where he is compelled to adapt to his new life under the constant threat of mafia reprisal. Reflexively resisting his immersion into all things country, this life long city boy meets and adopts a loquacious mule and befriends his closest neighbors, who have even greater secrets to conceal. A renegade US Marshall, a lesbian couple that includes a powerful psychic-medium-witch and an ex-army ranger complete his new circle of friends. When the mob associates are released due to the lawyer's intentionally prejudicial testimony at trial, they come gunning for him before the retrial can occur. "Witty, gritty, and full of heart." –Dr. Nick Atlas, author of The Light Travelers

Trusted Partners
Trust is the glue that holds organizations together. More powerful than contracts or authority, trust enables partner companies -- or groups within a company -- to achieve results that exceed the sum of the parts. Without trust, alliances fail. In Trusted Partners, internationally recognized alliance expert Jordan Lewis draws on four decades of advising and managing alliances to show -- for the first time -- how to build and sustain trust between and within organizations. A comprehensive and multifaceted analysis of trust, Trusted Partners shows how to develop, manage, measure, improve, or repair this important dimension of every business relationship. "Trust must be constructed, one step at...
