Danger Signals

The third book in the Taken series, 2008

Dear Reader,

Have you ever noticed how sometimes our lives can take us on journeys we never expected, or could possibly have imagined?

Several years back. I wrote a book called One Christmas Knight. That book led to more "Knight" books, then THE SISTERS WASKOWITZ and STARRS OF THE WEST series. A minor character, a little girl named Sammie June, took hold of my heart, and my editor's and readers' hearts as well. Sammie June-now Samantha. or Sam-figured prominently in the RITA® Award-winning The Top Gun's Return, and had her own story told in Secret Agent Sam.

From that book came the inspiration for a whole new series, about her husband Cory Pearson's search for his four lost siblings, who were separated from him after an unspeakable tragedy claimed their parents. We are calling this new series THE TAKEN. There will be four books, one for each of Cory's two brothers and two sisters. Danger Signals is the first.

This is a series that has touched my heart in a very personal way. I hope it touches yours, too.

Enjoy.
