A sense of home. A place to belong. Those can be hard to
find if you’re an orphan. But foster sisters Sasha, Eve, Cat and Blaze found that
and more at the Safe Harbor Marina when Sal and Rosa Martinelli took them in when
they were teenagers.
But now they’re adults, and the sisters are discovering that
danger and deadly secrets lurk beneath the friendly smiles, towering live oaks
and picket fences in this sleepy Florida coastal town.
Home is where the
heart is. The danger, too . . .
The Martinellis were the closest thing
to family Cat Johnson ever had. That’s why she ran—to protect them from her
threatening past. The orphaned child of classical musicians, she’s been lying
low in Nashville, and performing at the No Name Café. When Cat reluctantly
agrees to attend the wedding of her beloved foster sister, the plan is simple:
make a quick appearance at the Martinellis and then disappear again. Instead
she’s thrust headlong into a nightmare.
After a wedding guest is murdered,
Cat’s past descends with a vengeance. So does handsome and inquisitive Safe
Harbor cop, Nick Stanton, who will stop at nothing to uncover the town’s
secrets. That means exposing Cat’s as well. The more intimate Nick’s feelings
for Cat become, the more driven he is to find out what she’s hiding.
As things in Safe Harbor take a
terrifying turn, Cat realizes that the man she’s afraid to trust might be the
only one she can turn to.
Here’s what early reviewers
are saying:
“Mann
is an exciting storyteller. Deadly
Melody is the perfect
combination of romance and suspense. I loved Cat and Nick. You will too. Not to
be missed.” —Rachel Hauck, New York Times bestselling author
“Mann’s
book will take you on a wild ride. The main character is intriguing,
well-drawn, and brave. The romance is sizzling and the danger is palpable. A
must-read for fans of romantic suspense!” —Christy
Barritt, bestselling romantic suspense author
“An
engaging story that has it all—mystery, suspense, and a nice dose of sweet
romance!” —Cindy Kirk,
bestselling author of the Good Hope series

a Child
Since the heroine of DEADLY MELODY is a musician, I’ve teamed up
with the School in a Cart in Manila, Philippines, to support their street
children’s band. Being part of something and learning to play an instrument is
really helping these street children stay in school and get an education--their
best hope to break the poverty cycle. I’m donating all my pre-order and first
week’s royalties (via www.Lift-the-Lid.org) to
make a difference in the lives of these children. Will you help me help them?

Home for me is in eastern NC. I have lived here for 46 years. I was born in western NC and lived there for 20 years, I still consider that home too.
ReplyDeleteHi Connie, NC is such a lovely place. No wonder you are glad to call it home. I've only visited, but it's so beautiful there. :)
Deletesounds like a good read.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim. I hope you'll give it a read and let me know what you think. :)
DeleteHome for me is far Western Kentucky
ReplyDeleteJohnna, another beautiful corner of our country! :)
Deletewhere family is
ReplyDeleteOh, what a great response. Yes, exactly. :)
DeleteHome is where my family is - in the Northeast and overseas.
ReplyDelete"Home" is a hard thing to define. My home where I was raised was in Northern New York state on the shore of Lake Champlain and in the Adirondack mountains about 30 miles from the Canadian border. I married anAir Force man and we had several homes until his retirement. We settled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in NE TN. I guess it is now home. I have lived here longer than anywhere else in the world. As long as we have been together, where we are isn't as important as being together is.
ReplyDeletePatricia - what an exciting life you've lived. But how fabulous that where you are isn't as important as who you're with. :)
DeleteMary C - Love that home is where your family is! :)
