Today is the official Secrets of Honor release day. Yay, Carol!
By the end of a long evening working as a special set of eyes for the presidential security detail, all Kat Marengo wants is to kick off her shoes and stash two not-really-stolen rings in a secure spot. Plus, maybe sleep with Dave Krizak. No, make that definitely sleep with Dave Krizak. The next morning, she wishes her new top priorities were so simple.
As an operative for a covert agency buried in the depths of the Department of Homeland Security, Kat is asked to participate in a matter of life or death—locate a kidnapped girl believed to be held in Corpus Christi, Texas. Since the person doing the asking is the wife of the president and the girl is the daughter of the first lady’s dearest friend, it’s hard to say no.
Kat and Dave quickly learn the real stakes are higher than they or the first lady believed and will require more than any of them bargained for.
The kicker? They have twenty-four hours to find the girl—or the matter of life or death will become more than a possibility.
Available on Kindle and Paperback
Congrats to Mark for his two book deal as well!! How awesome is that?!
A note about the IWSG Guide to Publishing and Beyond: We've already received some fabulous submissions. Keep 'em coming! Your deadline is October 2nd. I'd like to encourage every member of the group to consider contributing to the book, even if you aren't currently published yet. What better way to get started?
Don't forget to pop on over to the IWSG Website.
Congratulations Carol and Mark - and you!
ReplyDeleteYes, we're getting submissions every day now. More marketing and publishing!

Thanks, Alex. Did I mention I was super excited about the book? ;)
DeleteYes, congrats Carol and Mark. Wow, that Versatile Blogger award has been around a long time. Congrats to you! Will have to look into the IWSG book.
ReplyDeleteActually the two awards had two separate graphics, but yes, the graphic I posted has been around since I started blogger, which means it's probably been around even longer.

Congratulations Carol and Mark!
ReplyDeleteSunlight - great answer so simple.
Sunlight makes me happy. I go a little stir crazy when there's a string of overcast or rainy days.
DeleteThanks for the congrats, Lynda! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat topic in your post today too. There are also more and more "traditionally published" authors who are getting into self-publishing as well because the author sees a much better percentage. Food for thought:)
Exactly. We're seeing a lot more hybrid authors than we ever did before. It's coming down to a book-by-book decision.
DeleteExcellent post over at IWSG. Congrats to Carol and Mark, and to you for the award!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Nick
DeleteLynda, the IWSG book sounds awesome -- would have loved to write for it, but I'm unfortunately withdrawing form online life a little, to focus on my offline one. Wish you guys all the best with it :)
ReplyDeleteLove the cover of Carol's book-- hope she sells a gazillion copies!
Sometimes stepping away from the online life is a necessary thing. Wishing you all the best.
DeleteYay Mark and Carol, and you too, Lynda. I'm off to check out your guest spot. I'm a bit late.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joylene
DeleteWoohoo! Congrats to Carol - her new book sounds awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm super happy for her too.
DeleteNice promo and book cover. Oh and congrats on you award.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover too. And thanks so much
DeleteI'll hop over to the other site. Congratulations to Carol!
ReplyDeleteYou're awesome, but we all knew that.
DeleteGod, garlic, friendship, your gorgeous husband, story writing, reading, and sunlight... I'm so impressed by your skilful conciseness. :)
ReplyDeleteI deliberated over the list for quite some time. See, if I could pick one more thing, it would be chocolate, but since I'm on a diet, I went with garlic.
