Series of the Week Giveaway: NO TURNING BACK by Tiffany Snow

 

No Turning Back (Kathleen Turner #1) 

Kathleen Turner has goals. She moved to Indianapolis to start seeing to them, but things aren't going quite as well as she'd hoped. She's a runner for a high-powered law firm in town, not the most prestigious of positions, but it and her part-time bartender gig at least pays the bills. And one of the senior partners is a dreamboat in that obscenely rich, disturbingly good looking, slightly snobbish sort of way.

Before she did a mortifying face plant in his lap during a meeting, she was quite happy ogling him from afar. After that...well...she was more about the avoiding. Mature, no. More likely to assure she keeps her job, yes.

She's made some friends in the few months she's been in Indy. One of those friends is her neighbor Sheila, though Kathleen can't say she's completely comfortable with Sheila's job choice as a high-dollar escort.

It's the middle of the night when Kathleen hears fighting coming from Sheila's apartment. As disturbing as that is, it's the ominous sound of silence afterwards that keeps Kathleen from falling back to sleep. Slipping from bed with the intention of making sure everything is okay, Kathleen knocks on friend's door, only to find Sheila murdered, her naked body sprawled on sheets stained crimson with her blood.

Shock and horror are followed by gritty determination when it becomes clear that Sheila's death isn't random and it isn't the result of a jealous boyfriend. It's the opening gambit in a web of murder, deceit, conspiracy, and fraud that stretches to the law firm for which Kathleen works. Maybe to the very office that Blane Kirk commands.

And Kathleen Turner, law office runner, can trust no one if she wants to survive

Being a bartender by night and law firm runner by day helps make ends meet for Kathleen Turner. Mostly. Being 23 and single in Indianapolis wasn’t exactly a thrilling adventure, but then again, that’s not what Kathleen wanted. At least, not until she met Blane.Kirk. Navy SEAL turned high-profile attorney, Blane is everything a woman could want. The only problem? He’s her boss.Blane is known for playing the field and the last thing Kathleen needs or wants is to get involved with him. But when her friend is murdered and it seems Kathleen will be next, she may not have a choice.Now Blane is the only thing standing between her and people who want her dead, including assassin-for-hire Kade Dennon. Beautiful but deadly, he’ll kill anyone who gets in his way, even the woman who makes him question everything he’s become.The deeper she sinks into the web of lies and murder, the more Kathleen realizes she can trust no one if she’s going to survive. No one is innocent. Not even Blane.

 

 

 “We just had a slight disagreement,” I said weakly. “Slight, my ass,” she retorted. “I got grilled within an inch of my life about you after you ran out of here.” “What?”“Exactly,” she said. “Blane wanted to know everything I knew about you, including what you and I had talked about yesterday.” “You mean my date with James tonight?” “Yes. He wanted to know if you had been out with James before, if you had dated anyone else in the firm, just everything. I couldn’t believe it!” “What did you tell him?” I demanded. “Well, I had to tell him the truth,” she hedged. “He is my boss, after all. Don’t worry, nothing bad. I was just so surprised that he wanted to know.” Yeah, Clarice and me both. “Um… Yes, Mr. Galloway, we do have those files you requested,” I heard her say. I was briefly confused before I realized Blane must be within earshot. “He’s there, isn’t he?” I hissed into the phone. “Absolutely,” she answered. “You’re correct about that, sir.” I grinned. “Thanks for running interference for me, Clarice,” I said. “He’s the last person I want to see right now.” “I assume you mean me and not the aforementioned Mr. Galloway.” Crap!

 

 

 

 

 

Turn On A Dime - Blane's Turn (Kathleen Turner #1.5)

 

 

 

Blane Kirk is a Navy SEAL turned high-powered attorney with old money and an even older pedigree. Yes, he plays the field, changing women as often as he changes his ties, but they’re not complaining. He has only two rules – 1) Don’t date employees and 2) Don’t get emotionally involved. Those rules have served him well. He sees no reason to change his ways, until his Runner, an employee in his law firm named Kathleen Turner, does an unexpected face plant in his lap.

Kathleen’s too young, too innocent, and suddenly much too vulnerable when her friend is murdered and Blane knows she could be next. Keeping her alive means keeping her close, but can Blane keep her safe...from him? Kathleen’s like no woman he’s ever met, and protecting her could be the one thing he never expected that would make his life turn on a dime.

TURN ON A DIME – BLANE’S TURN is a companion novel to NO TURNING BACK, Book One in The Kathleen Turner Series.

Turn To Me (Kathleen Turner #2)

 

 

When Kathleen Turner, office runner for the prestigious Indianapolis law firm of Kirk & Trent, started dating the boss she knew the risks. Senior Partner Blane Kirk is known for being a notorious player - the Baskin Robbins of dating with a different flavor every month. Kathleen is the happiest she’s been in a long time, especially as Christmas approaches, but she’s always known there was a termination date on her relationship with Blane.

She just didn’t expect that termination to be her funeral.

A festive afternoon of Christmas tree shopping turns life-threatening when Kathleen and Blane become targets for an unknown gunman. They make it home alive, but Kathleen realizes her boyfriend has been keeping secrets. The deadly kind.

Blane’s current case is drawing heated debate and stirring the pot of public fury. Kathleen is horrified by the threats – and worse – being directed at him. A former Navy SEAL stands accused of the wrongful death of an American citizen during a military operation overseas. The case has far-reaching political and military implications. Someone with a lot of money, and even more clout, wants Blane to lose.

As dead bodies of people connected to the defense start piling up, it becomes painfully obvious that disappearing witnesses and altered testimony are no longer enough for whoever is intent on guaranteeing the SEAL gets convicted. Kathleen and Kade, Blane’s brother and ex-FBI-agent-turned-assassin-for-hire, are on the trail of the killer.

Unfortunately for Kathleen, he’s already moved for the end-game – by painting a target on her...and pulling the trigger

Blane turns to assassin-for-hire Kade Dennon to keep Kathleen safe, a strategy that may backfire in more ways than one. Though Kade swears he hates her, he’s helpless to guard against things he’s never felt before and when they’re together, Kathleen sees something forbidden in his eyes. Kathleen must find the truth behind the lies before her time, and luck, runs out, or she may pay the ultimate price for falling in love with Blane Kirk.

 

 

 

“I had to see you. Touch you. Know you were all right,” he finally rasped. I swallowed. “I am. Thanks to you.” His brow creased slightly , almost as if what I’d said pained him, then he kissed me. It was the lightest of touches, tender and sweet . His hand threaded through my hair to cradle the back of my head. I tentatively brought my hands to his shoulders and leaned into him. When he broke off the kiss, I expected him to pull away. Instead, he drew me close and wrapped his arms around me. I rested my head against his chest with a sigh. “Saw you on the news,” I mumbled. “Did you?” he asked, but he didn’t sound surprised. “Yeah.” I didn’t stop to think before I blurted, “You didn’t tell them I was your girlfriend.” “Of course I didn’t,” he said. “I don’t want reporters camped outside your door.”

 

Dennon,” the FBI agent replied. “Glad you could come.” “I can always make time for the federal government,” Kade said dryly. “How’s freelancing going?” Donovan asked. Kade hesitated . The agent was well aware that Kade hired his services out to a select few— those for whom justice had been an illusion, victims of various crimes whose perpetrators had been able to evade the best efforts of police and litigators. “It’s a living,” Kade replied vaguely. “Saw what you left for us in Pittsburgh,” Donovan continued. “Glad you got the bastard.” Kade knew what he was referring to. A man named Travis Haney had murdered his mother and his grandparents, then kidnapped his eight-year-old daughter and been chased by the FBI across four states. Kade had found him holed up in a motel in the middle of Bumblefuck, Utah. The girl had been scared to death, her father ranting and raving, and she hadn’t been fed for two days. Kade had watched through the scope on his M40 rifle, trained on the window, tensing each time the man waved the gun in the girl’s direction. Finally, the man had stayed still long enough for Kade to shoot him. Kade had called Donovan , then dropped the girl off at the nearest hospital. She’d clung to him, crying. Kade still remembered her little hands clutching his jacket. “No problem,” Kade said uncomfortably. “You saved that girl’s life,” Donovan pressed. Kade shrugged, smiling tightly. “I wouldn’t want to pay for the years of therapy she’ll no doubt need.”

Turning Point (Kathleen Turner #3)

After her promotion from law firm Runner to Investigator, Kathleen Turner is learning the ropes of her new job from none other than assassin-for-hire Kade Dennon, a situation her boyfriend Blane Kirk is none too happy about. But the lessons with Kathleen take a back seat when Kade becomes a target. Previously untouchable, his enemies now know of the chink in his armor – his brother’s girlfriend.

And Kade’s not the only thing coming between Kathleen and Blane. From Blane's inexplicable defense of a man guilty of a horrible crime, to a mysterious stranger from Kathleen's past, to Kathleen' risky investigation into human traffickers, the obstacles mount against a relationship that's just begun to find trust again.

While Blane considers a job offer that would take him back to the front lines in the war on terror, Kathleen is determined to pursue her new career, with or without his approval. Unfortunately, her current case is far more dangerous than anyone knows. Someone close to Blane will go to extreme lengths to split them up, lengths that may prove worse than death for Kathleen.

Kathleen, Blane and Kade must atone for the sins of the past and the present. The fallout will force Kathleen to a turning point...in her career, and her life

“Kade”— my voice was shaking—“ have you been shot?” “Bingo, princess,” he breathed. His eyes slid shut. Reaching behind me, I grabbed my cell phone, but found my wrist in a viselike grip. “No police,” Kade said, his eyes open again and clear. “I need to call 911,” I argued. “You need to go to a hospital.” “Can’t,” he rasped. “No hospital. They’ll kill me.” Oh God. They were still after him, whoever “they” were. “Who did this to you, Kade?” He didn’t answer. I was starting to panic. If he wouldn’t let me call an ambulance, I didn’t know what to do, how to help him. Kade seemed to be losing consciousness now, his grip slackening on my wrist . Jumping to my feet, I hurried into the kitchen, rummaging through my junk drawer until I found what I needed. The blood on my hands smeared the pristine white of the business card, but I dialed the number, holding my breath and praying. When I heard the voice on the other end of the line, my knees nearly buckled in relief.

Point Of No Return (Kathleen Turner #4)

 

 

Kathleen Turner wasn't expecting to fall in love when she came to Indianapolis a year ago, much less with two very different men. And not just any men. Brothers.

Blane Kirk, former SEAL turned attorney, is every woman’s dream man. A playboy who changes women as often as he changes his tie, trying to hold on to Blane could only break Kathleen's heart.

Past betrayals come to a head and the choice Kathleen makes could sign her death warrant. Everything’s at stake as Blane, Kade, and Kathleen reach the Point of No Return
