I’ve written lots of books with either military heroes or law enforcement. They’re your typical alpha heroes but heroes come in all shapes and sizes and sometimes it’s the hero you don’t expect that’s the most interesting. That’s why I love Jose “Pepe” Gonzalez from KILLER IN THE KENNEL. A successful real estate agent, he’s avoided getting involved with the South Beach Security side of his family because he doesn’t want to be involved in their danger and because he wants to make his own way in life, free of their powerful influence in the Miami community. But when family needs help, Jose doesn’t refuse the call. And when it gets dangerous for beautiful K-9 trainer Sara Hernandez, Jose doesn’t hesitate to help Sara and SBS in their race to find a serial killer before he kills again! Today I’ve got a short teaser from KILLER IN THE KENNEL for you! I hope you enjoy it and if you do, grab your copy of KILLER IN THE KENNEL and my December 24th release, DANGER IN DADE, at https://amzn.to/4dt8sk3.
“I was sad to leave my family in New Jersey, but I knew it was the right thing to do.”
“Do you miss them? You’re a long way from home,” Jose said.
She nodded. “I do, but I’ll go home for Thanksgiving in a few weeks, and I have some cousins in Miami. I’ll visit them once I get settled.”
“Because family is important,” he said, sadness evident in the tone of his voice.
“Why does that seem to make you sad?” she asked.
He ripped his gaze from her to peer down into his glass as if it held the answer. With another awkward shake of his head, he said, “I sometimes wish I did want to be part of SBS. Work with them. Understand why they do what they do.”
“Now’s your chance.” The words escaped her before she could bite them back.
