Disappear Available Now
After two
years undercover as an FBI agent to infiltrate a crime organization and
discover the identity of a hit man, Tyler Beckett’s cover is blown. Tyler’s new
assignment is to protect the only witness who can identify the mysterious
killer. If only he didn’t find her so attractive. Each day it becomes harder to
keep his objective, especially since he knows the interest is mutual.
The safe
house is compromised and the same hit man shoots Tyler. Fearing Tyler is dead,
Keira plans revenge on the crime organization. She must fake her own suicide in
order to survive.
When
Tyler discovers what Keira plans, he realizes he must stop her before he loses
her for good.
Judy: What does Jessica Beckett do for a living?
Mary: She’s an algebra teacher.
Innocent Available Now.
All
Jessica wants is a home and a family. So how did she suddenly find herself
falsely accused of a felony and then kidnapped by a hit man?
Jessica
Beckett loves her job teaching high school algebra. That is until Coach Brinley
makes her life miserable because she actually has the audacity to fail his
three staring football jocks. Maybe if they’d done their homework they would
have passed. She refuses to be intimidated. He on the other hand refuses to
admit defeat and manipulates the boys into accusing her of sex in exchange for
passing grades.
Gabriel
Despain loves his job as FBI agent. But falling for his partner’s sister has
complicated a great partnership. It would be a lot easier to ignore his
feelings if Jessica hadn't found herself in trouble. Now he must keep her safe.
And if he can't remain objective, they both might get killed.
Judy: What does Christine Beckett do for a living?
Mary: She’s an attorney.
Quiet Coming Soon (April)
Christine
Beckett’s dream of partnership in a prestigious New York City law firm has
finally come to fruition. She has financial security, a loving family, and owns
her home, why does she need a man?
Detective
Solomon has worked with Tyler Beckett on several cases, he almost feels he is
part of the Beckett clan. He considers
them his good friends, except for Christine who seems to look down her
professional nose at him.
Christine
receives a threatening note and her townhouse echoes with mysterious cries in
the night. That is when the handsome and irritating detective insists he
temporarily move in to protect her. To add insult, it is with her family’s
blessing.
Mary: The Beckett family’s home is in Brooklyn. However, they work in Manhattan. Why the location? Because I love NYC and Brooklyn. I know their neighborhoods, I’ve walked them. I have pictures of them. The Beckett’s are like family to me.
Judy: Do you have a
favorite scene that you can share?
Mary: My favorite
scene is the final scene of Quiet so obviously I can’t share that. And there
are several scenes I like. Actually, all my favorites are the end of each book.
LOL.
Judy: What are you
working on now?
Mary: History
Mysteries with my three grandsons. We have a story board and a map of our
fictional town of Cliffdale.
