This novel has a little something for everyone. There's murder, mystery, romance and something for pet lovers, too.

A single mom and a stray cat turn a Homicide Detective's life upside down. When Detective Mark Stevens is called to a murder scene, he meets the victim's sister Beverley Ramsey. As time goes on he begins having feelings for her. But he's determined to remain professional. His heart has been closed for many years due to being hurt in the past.

With the help of his street cop sidekick Juan Estevez and a stray cat he names Buddy, his heart begins to open.

As the frustrating investigation comes to a close, an arrest is made.  A trial begins.  Did Detective Stevens fumble the case? Is the right person on trial?

The trial is overseen by a tough judge. The prosecutor is just a little too big for his britches. The feisty, female, defense attorney is not to be taken lightly.

If you like trial watching and want a peek into the lives of high powered attorneys, this novel is for you.

 Note from the author: Poetic Justice is a murder mystery with a romantic twist. I hope you enjoy visiting with these characters as much as I did.

Child Support Kills is the only book of its kind to highlight the tragic events of Child Support as well as provide the reader guidance (not legal advice) on how to avoid becoming a Child Support casualty.

Family laws are certainly necessary to make sure “deadbeat” parents are held responsible for co-creating a life and providing the basic necessities and resources to sustain that life. However, rather than approaching each child support case or situation objectively, adjudicators have consistently abused their discretion under the “best interest of the child” premise—which has significantly contributed to the systematic manufacturing of “deadbeat dads”. It is this type of abuse that has destroyed bonds between parent and child, driven a great number of non-custodial parents to kill senselessly, or caused parents and children to commit suicide—hence the title of this book—Child Support Kills.
