This book has been inspired by a life richly lived, and allowed expression during the incubation of the CoronaVirus 2020 lockdown. The author has written in personal journals over the years and began writing her “story” while living in Oman, Middle East. The intention has since been to get that finished. However, as life evolved and presented this concentrated chunk of time without purpose other than to keep healthy and alive, the original themes that have loomed large in her life could no longer stay silent. The energy, the power, the joy of these words dancing onto the pages have been a salve to Dr Rae and gifted to you the reader with gratitude and love.

The moment Meg’s closest and only friend was abused and abducted; her mind changed gears. Alone and physically weakened in a Spanish speaking country, she had to harness who and whatever to fight the overwhelming enemy. Sacrifices had to be made. The question is, would that be enough to save her loved ones?

Suffering from amnesia, Jane Rhodes is hitchhiking to California when she discovers she's picked the wrong truck driver and jumps from the moving 18-wheeler into a raging Wyoming blizzard. Duncan Tate, a llama rancher, finds Jane nearly frozen and takes her to his home. His only family, old Rooney and Rooney's rambunctious granddaughter Mary Kate, nurse Jane back to health while Duncan's attentiveness captures her heart. But when Jane's continuing amnesia threatens their future, Duncan vows to help her learn the truth, even if it destroys the life they hope to have together.

The fourth Kitty Couture cozy mystery full of romance, humor, adorable furry friends, and pet-friendly recipes—perfect for fans of Rita Mae Brown and Blaize Clement With a pet pageant around the corner and a killer unleashed, Lacy will have to collar the culprit before the claws come out. Lacy Marie Crocker can hardly believe it’s been a year since her return home to New Orleans. There hasn’t been a dull moment since opening her pet boutique last summer, and thanks to the popularity of Lacy’s organic pet treats, and the arrival of the National Pet Pageant, Lacy desperately needs some help before she is overrun by the demand for pupcakes and crinolines. The entire Garden District seems to be counting the minutes until opening night of the pet pageant and everything is going spectacularly until Viktor Petrov, the pageant emcee takes a spill from the balcony during dress rehearsal. All signs points to murder and homicide detective Jack Oliver sets his eyes on Eva Little, one of Lacy’s committee sisters and the only other person on the balcony at the time of the fall, as the killer. But when it comes out that Viktor was notoriously rude, the doors blow wide open with potential suspects who could’ve wanted him dead. Lacy’s determined to find the killer and exonerate Eva, but when Lacy receives a mysterious warning—a plush kitty from Lacy’s shop with its mouth crudely stitched over—it’s clear that she’s been found first. Full of killer recipes for your pet, Cat Got Your Crown is Julie Chase’s uproarious fourth Kitty Couture mystery.
