Karen Lewis - 2010
This is her husband they're talking about.

But to make matters worse, she must now be isolated in a police safe house, which turns her world upside down. While in protective custody, Nicky, the gangster moll, finds her rescuer in Brian. Their affair produces what he wants most in life, and hasn’t been able to have with Cheryl, a child. Nicky sees this as a way out of her gangster life and lures him into her web of deceit. When Brian, bored with his wife and enticed by Nicky, makes a life altering decision the results are not only catastrophic but potentially deadly. REVIEW FROM BOOKWENCHES "Gangster Moll is a unique story that takes twists and turns that will leave the reader's jaw on the floor. This is a story of love, mistakes, and deceit. The story wasn't what I thought it would be, and I was pleasantly surprised by the turn it took. I felt completely sympathetic to Cheryl. Her pain and angst came across in the pages with undeniable clarity. Her choices in the story are hard to understand and grasp for me personally, but I feel that Ms. Lewis made a winning choice with the storyline and the avenues it followed. Brian brought out an entirely different set of feelings in me. I couldn't stand him from the beginning, and my feelings only escalated as the story progressed. The author does an outstanding job of leading the reader into a gamut of feelings throughout the book. The book progresses at a quick pace, and the story unfolds without even a hint of what is coming next. There is a bit of a shock factor in some of the references, but I think it added to the understanding of the characterizations. I can't wait to see what else Ms. Lewis might have on tap. She has a unique flair for storytelling." REVENGE is the exciting new sequel to the best-selling story, Gangster Moll. When the husband Cheryl murdered comes back to haunt her, she believes it’s his ghost one minute and then dismisses that as nonsense the next. This torment catapults her into a terrifying world where vengeance from beyond the grave seems more and more likely, and she is driven to desperate measures in a bid to survive....

Free Fish Friday: Introducing Slacker Mills
Lee Stone - 2014
A vagabond fisherman extraordinaire, the self-indulgent Slacker has just two goals in life. The first is to spend every conscious hour doing only what he loves – hooking and battling big game fish on the ocean by day and hooking up with bar stool sirens at night. The second goal is to avoid any responsibilities that might get in the way of achieving the first. His persistent search for the ultimate angling experience takes him from one ocean paradise to another, where he inevitably becomes entangled in a mystery adventure. His story begins in Key West, Florida, where the 37-year-old Slacker believed he had finally found the ideal life and a lasting home. With his mounted trophies covering the walls of the famous Rusty Hook tavern, he was acclaimed as the best saltwater angler around and never had to pay for a beer. Because every Friday night at the tavern was celebrated with a complimentary banquet of his catch, he also was recognized as a benevolent hero. Through wandering eyes of vacationing ladies, he was typically viewed as "The Catch of the Night." Slacker’s dream lifestyle was attributable to the influence of his best friend and benefactor Jerry Porter, who had landed in Key West aboard his yacht five years earlier. Due to a unique talent for engaging people to talk about themselves while revealing nothing about himself, Jerry quickly bonded with everyone around him. Using those bonds as foundations, he tried to build what he viewed as better and more successful people ... and Slacker was his pet project. The transformation of the Rusty Hook from a local fishermen’s haunt to a Key West landmark was Jerry's crowning achievement. No one had inquired or even speculated much about Jerry Porter’s personal history prior to his arrival in Key West; all were content to revel in his presence. However, when Porter is the victim of a violent death, the traditionally peaceful community is shocked by revelations that there may be a killer in their midst and that perhaps not all of Porter's deeds were worthy of celebration. The charter fishing industry had been losing major clients and perhaps Jerry was the reason for it. A criminal investigation turns up information that damages dozens of families, fractures friendships, and leads to unwelcome national publicity for a town that relies on tourism to fuel the local economy. The police also single out Slacker as the prime suspect, destroying his treasured image among most Islanders, even his closest friends. Exactly who was the mysterious Jerry Porter? How and why did he meet such a violent end? Slacker Mills discovers the answers, and begins to discover himself, in Free Fish Friday.
