Today we welcome Leeann Betts to my blog. Leeann is very graciously giving away one copy of Petty Cash in either paperback (USA only) or ebook to one commenter. Please include contact information.
Leeann, glad to have you stop by. Tell us about the book:
Carly Turnquist, forensic accountant, is
headed off for another mystery. Or two. Or three.
In Book 7, she and hubby Mike head
to Cape Cod as emotional support for their daughter Denise and her dentist
husband Don who finds himself in the middle of a potential practice
dissolution. But when their host fails to make an appearance, and a tropical
storm blows through the area, things are topsy-turvy.
Then when their host's body washes
ashore, Don is suspected. After all, they'd had several arguments witnessed by
a number of people., not to mention a sizeable partnership life insurance
policy--with Don as sole beneficiary in the event Mo pre-deceases him.
Add into the mix a local ghostly
legend that keeps appearing in a haunted lighthouse, a local fisherman with a
costly secret, and a blossoming friendship between her grandkids and a local
named Sammy, and Carly has her hands full.
Why do you
write the kind of books you do?
I love reading cozies and mysteries, so I love
writing them, too. And I always want to write stories that prove our God is
bigger than our past or our mistakes.
What is your current work in progress?
My current
work in progress is book 8 in the series, A
Deadly Dissolution. Carly loses more than daylight when the total
lunar eclipse and crime come to town. Can she figure out what’s going on before
the suspect escapes?
What three things about you would surprise readers?
I
am a Canadian by birth and an American by choice; I once figure skated with a
gold medal figure skater; and I met my husband on the internet.
What are your hobbies, besides writing and reading?
What are your hobbies, besides writing and reading?
There is
something else in life J I enjoy knitting, and
traveling, and research, and flowers. Not gardening, mind you. I like to enjoy
the finished product.
What is your most difficult writing obstacle, and how do you overcome it?
What is your most difficult writing obstacle, and how do you overcome it?
I
get really cranky if I have to stop in the middle of a scene, and I get really
cranky if I don’t eat, and sometimes one gets in the way of the other. So,
since nobody else can write the story, I ask hubby to cook dinner. He’s very accommodating.
