Straight into trouble. And Murder. That's where both Kylie Hatfields' new job and her rescue dog's nose lead her. The gigantic black black Newfoundland dog, Vader, is just as impulsive as Kylie. Add ex-military Search and Rescue trainer, Lincoln Coulter, into the mix and missing people cases can't help but be solved. Sparks fly between Kylie and Linc as she settles into the upends Starr Investigations, where she's just been hired as a secretary. But she can do so much more, and being a PI is her dream. When a cheating spouse case turns into murder, and Kylie and Vader take to the mountains to solve it, Linc is called in to save the day. (Description from BookFunnel.)

Deadly Act

2019

Kylie’s new job is turning out to be a real killer... When quiet, unassuming Jessica Hilyard mysteriously disappears, Kylie Hatfield promises Jessica’s sister she’ll find her. So what if she’s technically just the office assistant at Starr Investigations? It’s the perfect opportunity to prove to her boss she has what it takes to become a real private investigator. But when the evidence starts to link Jessica’s disappearance to a dangerous serial killer, everyone warns Kylie to back off the case—the police, her boss, and Linc Coulter, the maddeningly sexy ex-soldier who’s training (or trying to train) her nutty Newfoundland dog, Vader, and making Kylie crazy in the process. But nothing’s going to stop Kylie from becoming a full-fledged private investigator...not even the threat of an unexpected murderer, who wants to take more than just her life.

Deadly Lies

2019

Family is everything...unless they want you dead. Sweet little Emma Jennings is certain someone is robbing her vast estate, and she wants Kylie Hatfield on the case. Sure, an embezzlement case might be boring—boring and Kylie don’t mix—but Kylie feels for the octogenarian and pledges to right the wrong. She’s certain that she can. She’s just been promoted to Assistant PI of Starr Investigations, after all. When embezzlement turns to murder, Kylie is once again tossed into a situation she isn’t prepared for, and her personal life isn’t much better. Sexy Linc Coulter, her Newfoundland’s trainer and her friend with benefits, is facing demons of his own. As her search for answers to Emma Jennings’s case grows more dangerous, Kylie is beginning to suspect that she might indeed be a magnet for trouble—and killers. Even worse, she also suspects that she might be Linc Coulter’s greatest downfall.

Deadly Games

Digging up the past can be deadly... Adam Hatfield disappeared from Kylie and her mother’s lives when she was only four days old. Had he only been playing games when he made a family? Or was there something more sinister at play? Kylie Hatfield, assistant private investigator extraordinaire, has it made. Mostly. But something is missing. A born digger, Kylie isn’t one to let a mystery stay a mystery, and her father’s disappearance is quickly becoming the most important case she’s ever tried to solve. She needs closure before she can fully commit to Linc Coulter, the former Army MP and search and rescue hero whose new mission is to protect Kylie from herself. But you can’t protect what you can’t find. And Kylie has, once again, chased a mystery into dangerous territory. When she finds her father, Adam Hatfield may seem like a successful billionaire on the surface, but something lurks beneath. Something dangerous and deadly that soon makes Kylie wish she hadn’t learned the awful truth. Turns out, digging up the past is not a game at all.

When her boss throws the case of a missing SAR from Georgia down on her desk, she jumps on it. It’ll be just the thing to keep her and Linc busy, so Kylie can put off having to fret about invitations, DJs, napkin colors… But little does Kylie know that, by taking this case, she’s putting Linc in the path of a dangerous killer.

Deadly Silence

2019

Silence can kill... Babies are going missing. Mothers are being killed. Because these women are poor and alone, no one seems to care. Now that Kylie Hatfield’s dreams have come true—she’s married to Linc, the man of her dreams, and she’s a real PI with her own business—everything should be smooth sailing. Just as she’s settling into married life and getting a foothold in the business, a pregnancy test and its little plus sign throws a wrench into her plans. They were going to put a hold on kids, and for good reason. With ten puppies and a business that needs to turn a profit, this isn’t the time for the added pressure of a baby. Plus, Kylie's work can be so dangerous. But when a big case comes across Kylie’s desk, one she simply can’t turn her back on, Kylie has to decide what is most important to her. And just how far she’ll go to protect the things she holds dearest.

Mary Stone lives among the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains of East Tennessee with her two dogs, four cats, a couple of energetic boys, and a very patient husband. As a young girl, she would go to bed every night, wondering what type of creature might be lurking underneath. But instead of asking her parents to look for her, Mary looked herself. Scared, sure, but she just needed to know. Needed to see with her own eyes. It wasn’t until she was older that she learned that the creatures she needed to most fear were human. Mary has always adored puzzles of any kind and could often be found sitting in a corner with a pencil scrunched tightly in her hand, an open puzzle book on her lap. This isn't to say she's a loner. Quite the contrary, Mary has always been a leader taking her friends on many exciting adventures to hunt down and capture an assortment of bad guys pulled from her imagination. Today, instead of walking that imaginary beat, she now creates vivid stories with courageous, strong heroines and dastardly villains. She invites you to enter her world of serial killers, FBI agents but never damsels in distress. Her female characters can handle themselves, going toe-to-toe with any male character, protagonist or antagonist. Come on, open a book. Mary dares you to look under the bed with her.
