The mysterious Mr. Ott is trying to intimidate Gracie Hofner into being his internal spy at The Bastion Group. She’s learned a lot about him through several sources, even using information provided by the pair of ghosts trying to save their granddaughter. But it isn’t enough. Mr. Ott is an expert in hiding his true identity.
Gracie isn’t as worried for herself as she is for her family, her friends, and her new tenant, Milo Porter. Her feelings for him have grown, but she can’t show them. Mr. Ott’s threats involve those she loves, and one friend has already been killed. Besides, she’s certain there is someone else in Milo’s life.
It takes Gracie and her growing support team to unmask Mr. Ott, but it’s what Gracie learns along the way that shows readers the wisdom of the advice Don’t Mess with Gracie.
This is the conclusion to The Amazing Gracie Trilogy—a story so big it takes three books to tell it. Gracie’s adventures begin with Jalapeno Cupcake Wench, continue with Bluebonnet Ballerina, and conclude here.
Read an Excerpt:
“Oh, crap.”
Gracie Hofner had reached up to grab a box filled with paint supplies, but in the process of pulling it off the upper shelf, she sneezed. When she did, she pulled the box out from the shelf and downward. As its contents tumbled toward her, she tilted backward on the ladder, losing her balance. As best she could, she shielded her head and neck. She would strike the concrete floor of her garage any second.
Two strong hands grasped her shoulders. “I got you.”
Her feet hit the floor. The ladder crashed. She still held onto the now-empty box.
“I got you,” repeated in her ear. Softer this time.
Gracie recognized the voice. Milo Porter, her new tenant. She slumped against him and breathed out through her mouth to release some of the adrenaline.
Milo was stronger than she’d given him credit for. His hands were firm, and the muscles in his chest supported her hefty farm-girl bones and workout muscles without a problem. He smelled good, too.
His arms went around her shoulders. “Are you all right?”
Gracie nodded, not yet trusting herself to speak without sounding like a babbling idiot. She took another deep breath and released it before taking a step away and standing straight. Her insides still trembled, so she inched around to face him. He allowed her to turn, but his hands never left her shoulders.

Thanks for hosting me today. I’m looking forward to chatting with your readers :)
ReplyDeleteWhich of the series characters would you most like to spend the day with and why?
ReplyDeleteI spent a lot of days and nights with these people when I was writing this story.
DeleteI'd like to visit Slaton Enloe's ranch and meet Plato and Arabella. And perhaps El Rojo... as long as he was on the other side of the fence.
I'd like to visit the Bastion offices and have Jackson take me on a detailed tour.
And I'd love to spend an evening on Gracie's patio with all her friends.
Great cover and excerpt, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThe cover is very eye catching, love it!

The cover is unique. As much as I love hot guys on covers, it's nice for a change.
ReplyDeleteI like hot guys, too :)
DeleteSo do the women I write about. But they don't need one to be their badass selves :)
Thank you sounds awesome
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
DeleteThanks, Dale :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, sounds like a great book that i need to read
ReplyDeleteI had such fun writing this trilogy. I hope you will read all three books and love the story.
ReplyDeleteHow did you come up with the series idea?
ReplyDeleteThe short answer is that I started with an idea for a single book, but about 50 pages in, nothing was working the way I wanted. I stopped and worked on another project. While I worked, I kept thinking about Gracie and realized I knew too much about the story for it to be one book.
DeleteThe long answer is the subject of my upcoming blog post on April 1. My blog is called Under the Tiki Hut. If you'd like to know more, visit anytime... but the April post won't go up until April 1. http://www.underthetikihut.blogspot.com
