Cody Whittaker moved to the San Antonio FBI field office to fight terrorism and organized crime. The last thing he expected to find was a red-haired siren who checked off all the boxes for the perfect woman. Now he just has to keep her alive.

Danger follows Amber, and Cody is fighting his desires, trying to be respectful while navigating the waters of a new FBI field office. Can he save her in time, or will the killer get to her first.

New Release: SCANDAL IN THE PARISH

amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

I’m excited to announce that SCANDAL IN THE PARISH: Priests and Parishioners Behaving Badly in Eighteenth-Century France by Karen E. Carter, is now available as an audiobook.

Challenging both my narration skill and my knowledge of religion in relationship to the French Revolution, SCANDAL IN THE PARISH studies the important relationship between parishioners and the priests in small, rural parishes of France, and “forcefully corrects the notion that Catholicism declined in importance in the period before the Revolution.”

“Well-written and clearly argued study.” – Jeremy Hayhoe, Université de Moncton

From the Publisher:

In 1770, the priest Nicolas Vernier was accused of neglecting church services, inappropriate behaviour in the confessional, financial improprieties, and affairs with the village schoolmistresses. In a contentious church court case, parishioners described all of their priest’s wrongdoings, and in turn, he detailed many of theirs. Ultimately, Vernier finished his career as a cathedral canon in another diocese. 

Scandal in the Parish recounts Vernier’s story and many similar 18th-century cases. In fascinating detail that reveals essential facets of rural religion during the Catholic Reformation period, Karen Carter considers French lay people’s relationship with their parish curé, who governed and influenced so much of their religious practice. Although the priest’s role as purveyor of God’s grace through the sacraments was secure as long as he performed his duties appropriately, priests who were unable to navigate the pressures and high expectations put on them by their superiors and parishioners risked broken relationships, public disturbances of the peace, and even prosecution. These scandals, Carter demonstrates, tell us much about rural parish life, the processes of negotiation and accommodation between curés and their parishioners, and ongoing religious reforms and enforcement throughout the 18th century. 

An engaging venture into the world of the parish that highlights the centrality of the priest-parishioner relationship, Scandal in the Parish reveals the attitudes and practices of ordinary people who were active agents in their religious and spiritual lives.

The book is published by McGill-Queen’s University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

SCANDAL IN THE PARISH is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.

New Release: CABIN 3

amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

Happy audiobook release day for CABIN 3 (Steele Shadows Security Book 3) by the amazing Amanda McKinney!

This one is my favorite in the series so far. Lexi is truly a badass and so fun to narrate. A special thanks to dual narration partner Michael Reid for making us sound awesome.

Enjoy!

From the publisher:

Hidden deep in the remote mountains of Berry Springs is a private security firm where some go to escape, and others find exactly what they’ve been looking for.

Welcome to Cabin 1, Cabin 2, Cabin 3….

Businessman. CEO. Head of household. Three titles worst suited for Gunner Steele, the short tempered, reticent former Marine and rebel of the infamous Steele brothers. After an evening searching the mountains for his missing office manager, Gunner finds an undercover agent at his front door demanding protection — and that anyone but him be her bodyguard. Usually, Gunner didn’t give a damn if someone disliked him, but this particular curvy vixen had information about the man who killed his father and maimed his brother. Information he’d gladly sell his soul for…but is he willing to sell hers, too?

After failure to deliver the location of a Russian spy as slippery as a bowl of borscht, Lexi York is fresh out of a job and a near-death experience when she seeks refuge at Steele Shadows, despite her disdain for the tattooed bad boy, Gunner Steele. At her wit’s end, Lexi devises a plan to use Gunner to get her job back, but what she hadn’t planned on was developing feelings for the tortured soul she could never tame.

Unwilling to make promises he can’t keep, Gunner is faced with the biggest decision of his life. Avenge his family, or throw away the only woman who’s cracked open his shielded heart?

 

The audiobook for CABIN 3 is available exclusively on Audible, Amazon and iTunes.

New Release: AT WITS’ END

amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

So excited this cozy mystery has released!

AT WITS’ END (Doyle Cozy Mystery, Wits’ End book 1) by Kirsten Weiss is a cozy mystery that’s out of this world. . . Men in Black. Conspiracy-crazed old ladies. Can a clueless innkeeper catch a killer…and stick to her carefully crafted schedule?

I really love narrating cozy mysteries and this one did not disappoint. AT WITS’ END is full of side smirks and guffaws. Trust me. I did a few retakes on this due to giggles.

Full disclosure: The feeling of connection to the main character was palpable. My sister’s name is Susan, I am a control freak complete with extensive checklists in my bullet journal, and I love Victorian B&B’s. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, though I do deal with some of them on a regular basis.  Unfortunately, I do not have a faux-UFO built into my house’s roof.

Thank you to Joc and Dani at The Audio Flow and to author Kirsten Weiss for trusting me to tell this hilarious story.

Listen to a sample:

From the publisher:

When control-freak Susan Witsend inherits her grandmother’s UFO-themed B&B, she’s ready to put her organizational skills to the test. She knows she can make the B&B work, even if there is a faux-UFO in the roof. After all, what’s not to love about a Victorian nestled in the high Sierra foothills?

None of her carefully crafted policies and procedures, however, can prepare her for a corpse in room seven – the body of her small-town sheriff’s ex-husband. Good thing Susan has her own plans to solve the crime.

But is there a government conspiracy afoot? Or is the murder a simple case of small-town vengeance?

Susan must keep all her wits about her. Because the killer isn’t finished, and if she isn’t careful, her fate may be written in the stars….

Beam up this hilarious cozy mystery today!

AT WITS’ END is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.

New Release: REDEMPTION

I’m excited to announce a new audiobook release in the thriller and suspense genres: REDEMPTION by Stephanie Baldi.

I met Stephanie in Atlanta at the Atlanta Writer’s Club meeting held in February, where I spoke about all-things-audiobooks. We had a lovely dinner together and talked all about life and creating the audiobook for her first novel, REDEMPTION. Back then it was just in the beginning stages of narration, and now it’s complete! I hope I did it justice!

Murder is the catalyst pushing Carrie Overton headlong into the arms of the hitman sent to kill her.

After Travis forces her to help him steal two million dollars from a drug lord, leaving two people dead, Carrie decides to add a third victim to her list, and Travis is left lying on the floor.

Eager to start over, she takes the stolen money and travels to the small mountain town of Laurel, Pennsylvania. Carrie lies about her past and relaxes into her new life. Before long, Carrie’s lies are piling up, and her crimes are about to catch up to her.

Nicholas D’Angelo is known as a ghost, a contract killer for one of the biggest drug lords in Miami. His assignment is simple. Find the people, who stole the two million dollars, recover the money and eliminate them.

With a hitman on her trail, Carrie is forced to make a choice. Trust the hitman who vows to disobey his orders and protect her. Or stay in Laurel and face the drug lord determined to end her life. Either one might kill her.

REDEMPTION is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.
