Matilda Hennypenny is content, running her B&B, and raising her three adopted daughters, Faith, Hope and Charity. Life isn’t always kind, having lost her fiancé, under questionable circumstances. Her life changes when she gets a special skeleton key for her birthday, from her late, eccentric grandmother, Margie. Virginia, Ginger, and Irene, her stepsisters, will receive the same special gift in the month of their birthdays. The stipulation is Matilda has to discover what her key opens before Virginia’s birthday in June. The puzzles won’t be solved until the last sister opens her gift. Does the key open a door, or a box, or is it a symbol for something? She has two months to unlock the secret. Hudson Rhoades has been living a lie for over a year. He’s been staying at Hennypenny’s B&B while working in Beacon Pointe. While dying, Matilda’s fiancé made Hudson swear he’d protect Matilda and her daughters. The people he scammed would go after her. She has the missing key. Page turning, romantic suspense.

I’m a romantic at heart, having married my high school sweetheart, who is still the love of my life. While raising our two children, I was a “closet” writer and managed to complete four books. With the e-book explosion, I bottled up my courage and selected my favorite book, reworked the story line, and self-published “Elusive Obsession,” November 6, 2013. I like to create characters that the reader can relate to/with. Sometimes while writing a scene, I find myself laughing out loud at the hilarious situations I literally toss them into. They’re not perfect with beautiful bodies, they make mistakes, their not afraid to say I’m sorry, they are not afraid to compromise and they suffer all human emotions. Most important, they love with all their heart.. I like to read books with a “twist” or two in the storyline and you’ll find these OMG situations in my stories. They are stand alone books, but I bring the characters from the first book into the follow-up story. I’ve already got readers clamoring for the next book, “Maid to Order”, that centers around Russell, a character from “Elusive Obsession.” My characters also love to spend time in the kitchen and whip up their favorite dishes and treats. You’ll find a yummy dish or sweet from the books on my website: judykentrus.com. I hope you enjoy my books and I love to hear from my readers. Judy
