Available today for Amazon Kindle.

Small towns hide big secrets.

When tourists discover the body of seasoned hiker James Fremont at the bottom of Scarface Mountain Trail, Sheriff Jacob Knight immediately suspects foul play. Fremont died with an engagement ring in his pocket and enough supplies to last two people for several days, yet there’s no evidence of a woman at his abandoned campsite.

Worse — Fremont’s girlfriend, local cougar Denise Langerkamp — won’t admit they were ever a couple.

Denise has already moved on, her next target a scarred young man named Dack Ashkettle.

From the moment he first meets her, Dack is certain he loves Denise, but he’s about to find out — sometimes, loving the wrong woman can be murder.

Flood Damage in Ashkettle Country

AnneLeave a comment

It’s another rainy Wednesday here in Ashkettle country. In fact, we’ve had a lot of rainy Wednesdays here this spring. Here’s the proof!

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

These are images of the Potomac River where it runs near Hancock, MD, and of Little Tonoloway Creek that runs through Widmeyer Park in Hancock. There was only minor flooding in this area this time around, and the water had receded by mid-afternoon the next day, but areas south of us were hit much harder. Schools were closed in some areas, and roads were washed away.

It’s 7:40 am here today, and the sun is shining 🙂

Bo and Janie and News You’ll LOVE!

Have you met Janie Gentry? She’s a character who was initially introduced in Ashkettle Crazy as the narrator of the prologue, and if you’ve made it as far as the third book in the series, you’ve gotten to know her a bit better.

Janie has a big heart and a sharp mind. She’s studying to become a teacher, and she’s the Bella to Bo’s Edward, the Ana to his Christian, the yang to his yin.

They’re friends with benefits, y’all.

No, not really.

In the Ashkettle world, slow romance is still a thing. It might be the 1980s, but these kids have more on their minds than just big hair and parachute pants.

Unlike myself back in the day.

Sonny and Dack love Janie like a sister, but Bo feels a bit differently …

“Sometimes I had a hard time breathin’ when she was in the room.” 

Janie wears Bo’s promise ring on her third finger, but she still lives back home where she attends college and helps care for her father who suffers from dementia.

Because Janie’s got it going on.

This explains Bo’s fury when someone or something threatens the woman he’s loved since he was old enough to walk upright.

In fact, Janie’s psychotic stalker has all three brothers blisterin’ mad.

And three angry Ashkettles are never a good thing.

Unless you’re the young woman being terrorized.

Then the odds are definitely in your favor.

And would it be obnoxious of me to ask for a review if you enjoy the story?

Because I hate obnoxious people.

But I LOVE reviews.

I’m gonna do it.

Please review? Pretty Please? And if you’ve read other books in the series and didn’t hate them, reviews of those would be lovely as well.

And if you read them and DID hate them, email me. We’ll chat. We don’t even have to chat about books. We can talk about other things. Not to brag, but I speak a mean beagle.

(P.S. I love comments nearly as much as reviews. Join the conversation!)
