Straight Up (A Ruby Steele Cozy Mystery—Book 4)
Om denne lydboken
When a 40th birthday bash for a rich wife gets way out of hand, she wakes up with her best friend’s husband sleeping beside her—dead.
Looking at life in a Bahamian jail for murder, she turns to Ruby for the help she desperately needs.
Ruby knows what it feels like to be setup. She also knows what it’s like to be played. Is this woman telling the truth?
Which one of her rich, envious friends wanted her dead?
Or was it someone else completely?
But Ruby has a bad habit of helping other people when barely able to handle troubles of her own: Senator Wishbourne’s briefcase is still missing, the pressure is building, and Ruby’s running out of time.
And this time won’t be any different.
Welcome to the Bahamian world of your new favorite female protagonist—Ruby Steele—replete with her local dive bar, her wily pet monkey, her major drinking problem, her (way) too many fights, her inability to get herself out of trouble, and her fists made of stone. Ruby’s life is a complete wreck.
But there’s one thing she’s good at: capturing your heart.
STRAIGHT UP is book #4 in a page-turning mystery series and an action packed thriller, one that will linger with you long after the last page is read and which will appeal especially to fans of mystery and suspense and cozy mysteries and fans of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum and Jana DeLeon's Miss Fortune.

Om forfatteren
FULL BODIED is book #3 in the Ruby Steele Cozy Mystery, which begins with ON THE ROCKS (Book #1).
Ruby Steele, 30, beautiful, fit, seems just like any other ex-pat hiding out in the Bahamas and playing local bartender. But unruly patrons find out the hard way: Ruby is a mixed-martial-arts pro, and not one you’d want to cross.
Ruby’s known for making friend in bad places. And her newest friend, a bouncer at the brothel next door, is no exception. When he comes to her with a sob story, she can’t turn away.
When that story turns to a body he found this morning, Ruby sits up straighter.
When it turns out that body belonged to a trafficked teenaged girl, Ruby’s sense of justice is lit.
Ruby’s gotta solve this one, for her own need to set wrongs right.
Problem is, the cops don’t care, and this case will surely take her to some bad places, and up against some bad people. That may just include a billionaire with his own private yacht—and his own private army.
It’s not like Ruby doesn’t have an army of her own coming after her.
The last thing Ruby needs right now is a two-front war.
But it looks like that’s exactly what she’s going to get.
No one said Ruby’s judgement was good.
Then again, if it was, she wouldn’t be hiding out in the Bahamas, tending bar, with a monkey on her shoulder and an enemy list a mile long.
Welcome to the Bahamian world of Ruby Steele, replete with her local dive bar, her wily pet monkey, her major drinking problem, her (way) too many fights, her inability to get herself out of trouble, and her fists made of stone. Ruby’s life is a complete wreck. But there’s one thing she’s good at: capturing your heart.
