      CALCULATED REVENGE

      When a former classmate is murdered at Detective Caleb Lyons’s ten-year high school reunion, he knows the victim’s old group of friends are keeping secrets. That includes Cedar Key, Florida, police officer Amber Kingston. Back in school, Amber was headed for trouble, but now she’s as dedicated to the law as he is. As he works overtime to get the pretty cop to open up to him, Amber and her friends receive messages threatening payback for past deeds. And her friends keep dying...one by one. But protecting Amber and unmasking a murderer isn’t just the widowed detective’s shot at redemption—it’s his unexpected second chance at love.

      Someone had tricked her into coming to the reunion, Amber realized.

      Someone who wanted to make sure I’d be here.

      “Amber? Are you okay?” Caleb asked.

      He was staring at her, an eyebrow lifted in concern. Before she could formulate a response, a scream pierced the silence.

      She shot to her feet. The scream had come from outside.

      Caleb brushed past Amber at a full run before dropping to the stone walkway beside the body on the ground.

      When Amber reached them, she stifled a gasp. The victim was Alex. From their old group of friends.

      Caleb held up a hand. “Everyone stay back.”

      She stepped forward and knelt beside him. Everyone didn’t include her. “I’m a cop.”

      Amber drew in a shaky breath. First Mona, now Alex. One-third of them gone before age thirty.

      “This is Detective Caleb Sutherland with the Levy County Sheriff’s Office.” Caleb spoke into the phone, his voice all cool professionalism. Detective? Caleb?

      She figured he’d be a preacher or something equally righteous. Now they’d work together to solve this murder.

      Murders.

      Dear Reader,

      I hope you’ve enjoyed our final trip to Cedar Key. I’m a little sad to leave our friends there. It’s one of my favorite places to visit, with its quaint, artsy atmosphere and friendly people.

      I’ve had fun bringing you Amber and Caleb’s story. Amber grew up under the shadow of a “perfect” older brother and never felt as if she was good enough. She made some serious mistakes and carried some heavy regrets. After years of trying to earn God’s forgiveness, she finally realized grace isn’t something that can be earned; it is offered freely through Christ’s sacrifice.

      Amber saw Caleb as “super Christian,” but he was carrying regrets. He’d always thought he had a strong faith, but when it was tested, he failed miserably. Though he found his way back, the road to complete trust in God was a long one. I hope one or both of these characters’ struggles spoke to you.

      I would love it if you’d drop me a line.
