Nancy Bush is the author of more than three dozen novels in various genres. She has also worked as a breakdown writer on the daytime favorite, All My Children. Nancy’s newest novel, ELECTRIC BLUE, is the second in the Jane Kelly series of romantic mysteries, following Candy Apple Red. In this second smash outing, Nancy’s wickedly funny heroine, Jane Kelly, proves herself a worthy successor to Stephanie Plum, but with a wit, style, and dog that are definitely all her own.

In ALL THE NUMBERS, author Judy Merrill Larsen skillfully takes us through every parent’s worst nightmare as she brilliantly explores, through fiction, how love makes us vulnerable and how very isolating yet very human is the desire for revenge. A trial takes us to a highly charged ending in which, in an unexpected turn, Ellen reconciles the pain of an irreversible past with the duty ahead. Judy Merrill Larsen teaches high school English in St. Louis, Missouri, where she lives with her husband and five children. She holds a master’s degree from Washington University.
