Former Havana detective Marlene Martínez, now happily running a bakery in Miami, has booked a week-long cruise to Mexico and the Caribbean with her niece, Sarita, as the girl’s quinceañera present. Sarita is beyond thrilled to discover that a Cuban telenovela star, Carloalberto, is also aboard for the trip.

But even while trying to keep her niece away from the unsettlingly handsome actor, Marlene gets the feeling Carloalberto is in some kind of trouble—he is constantly on edge, and shady characters seem to find their way to him. When murder occurs aboard the North Star, Marlene will rely on instincts she hoped never to use again. $2.99 on Kindle.

Allen Kennedy graduated college at the beginning of the 2007 recession. At the time the job market was tough. After a year of looking and not finding any opportunities out there he settled for a retail job. He hated his job, but most of all he felt that he was doomed not to make anything of himself. He was doomed to work retail for the rest of his years. Then his cell phone unexpectedly rang. On the other end was an old friend offering him a job in the corporate office of one of the biggest companies in town. Allen happily agrees to sign on but immediately after starting there he noticed that things were… different. People were timid around the office, some were even scared, and there was something not quite right about the owner of the company, Mr. Brockford. Free on Kindle.
