Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:
A Gripping tale that is hard to put down – One that is as Sweet as a Ballerina and as Pugnacious as a Pitbull !
Maria is tired of running from the law and comes back to the US from France. She murdered her husband, a deranged genius in self-defense and is arrested on arrival. Will she come out unscathed or will this be the biggest mistake of her life? Will she taste freedom or will she remain behind bars forever?
Follow the loveable yet eccentric private investigator, Slade Kelly, (a readers’ favorite), as he tries to save Maria from seemingly insurmountable odds.
The story moves at a rapid pace, from the ghettos of Chicago to the beaches of Florida, from the streets of Los Angeles to the lush gardens of New York city. Each twist and turn comes with its own cast of colorful characters, from sleazy men in the mafia to hot, desperate women, who will do anything to make it big, in a world that is always trying to keep them small.
Blue Coyote Motel was chosen as a quarter-finalist in Amazon’s Breakthrough Novel Award contest in the mystery/thriller category, and selected as the Book of the Month by the Goodreads Psychological Thriller group.

Blue Coyote Motel is a suspenseful love story which begins in the barrios of Southern California and spans the globe in such diverse locations as Provence, South America, and the Himalayas. The beautiful Latina, Maria, and her husband, Jeffrey, a scientist fired from a prestigious laboratory, struggle to build a new life in a remote Southern California desert area as owners of the motel.
Along with the anti-aging hormone, Jeffrey invents a “feel-good” wonder drug to help Maria with her depression. As Jeffrey becomes insane, he begins to experiment with the wonder drug. Six wayward travelers, including an alcoholic priest, a couple who own gold mines in Brazil, a depressed widow, a struggling salesman, and a Native American pediatrician, find themselves spending the night at the small motel. The next morning they wake up feeling better than ever. Has Jeffrey’s miracle drug delivered? Or is the nightmare of addiction only beginning?
The sequel to Blue Coyote Motel, Coyote in Provence, was recently published. It continues the story of the very beautiful and sexy Maria Brooks, now Elena Johnson, hiding out in Provence, France, from the California legal authorities. She meets and falls in love with Jordan Kramer, a handsome art theft detective from Los Angeles.
He’s looking for stolen California paintings reportedly for sale in Provence. She’s trying to stay under the radar. Both share a love of food and wine. Will Jordan find Pierre, the French chef who’s suspected of being the art theft? And who are those young Afghan girls hiding out in his parents’ home? Great food, art, and Romantic Suspense at its best!
Her second novel, Tea Party Teddy, is a multicultural romance set against the political background of California. It’s the story of Nina, whose husband succumbs to the power of his office. Bigoted and biased, the ultimate irony occurs when she becomes romantically involved with the founder of the Republicans for Latinos, and in the process, discovers herself.
