A #MFRWHooks for What We Found #Romance and #Mystery

    I staggered back to Jay. My face felt strange, my lips pulled back in a weird grimace. “We have to call someone. Nine-one-one. The police.” I fumbled in my pocket for my phone.
    My hand trembled as I lifted the phone toward my ear. Jay grabbed my wrist. “No.”
    “What do you mean? We just found a body! We have to report it!”
    He plucked the phone out of my hand. “We’re not telling anyone. We were never here.”
    My hands dropped to my sides. “But – but – we can’t just – we have to – Jay, this is serious!”
    “Exactly.” He pushed me toward the main path. “This is serious and we don’t want to be involved in it. Let somebody else find it.”

What We Found

Finding a dead body changes a person.

22-year-old Audra Needham is back in her small New Mexico hometown, ready to work hard, fit in, and help her younger brother. Going for a walk in the woods with her former crush, Jay, seems like a harmless distraction … until they stumble on a body.

Jay, who has secrets of his own to protect, insists they walk away and keep quiet. But Audra can't simply forget what she's seen. The woman needs to be found, and her story deserves to be told.

More than one person isn't happy about Audra bringing a crime to life. The dead woman was murdered, and Audra could be next on the vengeful killer's list. She’ll have to stand up for herself in order to stand up for the murder victim. It’s a risk, and so is reaching out to the mysterious young man who works with deadly birds of prey. With her 12-year-old brother determined to play detective, and romance budding in the last place she expected, Audra learns that some risks are worth taking – no matter the danger, to her body or her heart.

“Another action-packed suspense novel by Kris Bock, perhaps her best to-date. The author weaves an intriguing tale with appealing characters. Watching Audra, the main character, evolve into an emotionally-mature and independent young woman is gratifying.” Reader Ellen R.

  1. Interesting - why does he want someone else to find it?? Raises some questions. Tweeted.

  2. I read both your snippet and the true life incident -- very interesting! I'm reminded of the time my wife and oldest son discovered a murder victim in Tucson, lying in an empty lot. Nasty stuff.

  3. If you think about it, finding murder victims must happen, but it's not something you expect to happen to you. I hope your wife and son didn't suffer any long-lasting negative effects.
