Hostile Witness

Welcome to Maryland's Eastern Shore, where the sand holds memories and a chance encounter reignites an old flame amidst a chilling mystery.

Dedicated teacher Tia O'Rourke is happily single and rightly so-her previous relationship nearly killed her. But her orderly life takes a harrowing turn when she discovers a murder victim and an injured K9. The detective on the scene? Her first kiss from many years ago.

Detective Ethan Kelley never forgot the feisty redhead who stole his heart, but he's recently divorced and sticking to his moratorium on women. He's a Sanctuary, Inc. operative and a cop with no time for romance. His focus is on the dangerous case at hand.

In this fast-moving tale of love, mystery, and the courage to overcome, every clue brings Tia and Ethan closer to the truth but will they uncover the killer's identity before it's too late? Can they confront their pasts and fight for a future together?

Hostile Witness is a second-chance, small town, strong woman in peril, double life, law enforcement protector, romantic suspense with a K9, a gripping final plot twist and a splash of fun.
