A bit of sweet suspense...
Walker Texas Wife is the first book in my Book Cellar Mystery Series, which I co-write with my good friend and sweet romance writer, Melissa Storm. This sweet mystery series has no swearing and very mild violence and sexual situations. We recognize that life is hard and sometimes you need a fun escape. Why is it sweet? Well we came to you, the reader, and asked what you wanted and an overwhelming amount of you requested that we take out any swearing and all uses of the Lord's name in vain. We are currently working on putting together a second edition of Walker Texas Wife that will be clean and sweet. It is important to both Melissa and I that we give our readers an enjoyable experience.

What are readers saying...
“Storm and Hodge are a perfect blend. They have carefully presented several important topics in the process of telling the story. They made me laugh. They made me cry. They left me satisfied and hungry for more. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series. I hope they write another series together after this one.” — Melinda McIntosh, Author of A Bit of Tickle for the Mind.
“It’s like Southern Gossip Girl for grown-ups.” Olivia Folmer Ard, Author of The Bennett Series.
Excerpt from Walker Texas Wife:
Annabeth King hated stereotypes, but knew she fit the hot-tempered Irish girl to a T. All morning she had been a powder keg waiting to go off.
An absurd discussion about the lyrics to Don’t Stop Believing had sparked the most recent fight between her and Marcus. In retrospect she knew the fight had had nothing to do with the song, the oppressive heat, or even the last two days spent traveling across the country. No, it had everything to do with the incident from nine months ago—the one they didn’t talk about.
“Either slow down, or pull over and let me drive,” she said, her shrill voice annoying even her.
Marcus, just as hotheaded, pressed down on the gas pedal making the orange needle on the dash hover at eighty-five. “Is this slow enough for you?”
As he erratically shifted lanes to navigate around the traffic, she grabbed hold of the Oh My God bar to keep from being thrown against the door. “You’re going to get us killed. Pull over, and let me drive!”
“Can you even reach the pedals?” he growled, not taking his eyes off the road.
He fought dirty, always bringing up her height, knowing it would get a rise out of her.
Well not today!
