What readers are saying about this novel!
"Just finished your novel, Dangerous Beginnings, wow, what a page turner, could not put it down. Did very little today, sitting in the sun enjoying your wonderful way with words, well done. I would recommend this book to everyone. Congrats on your first publication!" Davine Felotick
"Dangerous Beginnings, is a wonderfully written, easy to read novel, that I totally enjoyed. This has a different twist to it, as the "crime" is something most of us do not know about but, it is, on every level, a true and haunting one. Not just for Mexico but for hundreds of countries. I felt as if I was going back with you to a Mexico I remember. I sensed that heat as you step off the plane, the culture, the romance and the very idea of beginning again with Susan's every word. I wish you much luck and good fortune with this book, and can not wait to hear more tales of Susan, Rat and now, Miguel. Do yourselves a favour, por favor, mi amigas, and beg, buy or borrow this book! Lynda Curlette
"Just got done with Dangerous Beginnings! It was a great read, and it kept me turning pages till the very end. (If I'm tired today, it's because once I started reading, I didn't stop till I finished the whole thing lol) I wish you the best of luck at your upcoming signings. Congratulations on a very fine book! Such a lovely setting for a story, and I felt like I knew the characters." Joyce Zikursh
