When I went into the casino industry people would always ask, “What’s a nice girl like you doing working in a place like this.” Now I can honestly say, “Research.” Because I write suspense novels about life from the other side of the blackjack table. I love to read fiction novels that are entertaining and exciting. I don’t have to get a PHD but just finish the book knowing a bit more than when I picked it up. That insider look lets the reader know that the author knew what she was talking about. I have compiled 5 new books from authors that write what they know and one of them is me. These novels are available at all your favorite book buying sites.
