Book Updates and More
STOLEN, the 6th book in the Lucy Kincaid series, came out last month. It focuses on Sean, and I loved writing a story predominately about him. Lucy plays an important role, but takes a back seat as Sean struggles with his past, his relationship with his brother, and wanting to have a future with Lucy.
The copyedits for COLD SNAP, the 7th Lucy Kincaid book, hit my desk while I was at Thrillerfest last week, so I'm digging in to get them back to my publisher. COLD SNAP is about all the Kincaid's as they try to get home for Christmas, with a focus on Patrick and his story. It's a little different, but catching up with the Kincaid's was a blast.
The Lucy Kincaid series will remain in mass market paperback (and ebook!), and there will be more to come in 2014 and 2015! But I'm also launching a brand new series in hardcover (and ebook!) starring Maxine Revere, an investigative crime reporter.
Originally, I posted the title of the book -- my working title when I conceived of the idea in 2010. But now that the book is written and in production, we changed it: NOTORIOUS is the first Max Revere book. I am very excited about this story. It's still a mystery/thriller, but a bit different than the Lucy series. Max is extremely independent, has two love interests (I call them "fire and ice" because Marco Lopez, the hot Cuban FBI Agent is all fiery and passionate, and Nick Santini, the cool-headed detective is the strong, silent ex-Marine.) I hope all my readers like Max as much as I enjoyed writing her.
NOTORIOUS will be out on April 8, 2014.
As always, any questions, please post them or email me. Thank you for reading.

Shannon wrote: "I didnt know it was a series ... Guess i better figure out what other books i need to get !!!"I'll have two series -- Lucy Kincaid (the seventh book comes out on 10.29) and Max Revere (the first book comes out 4.8.14) -- I really like the idea of going back and forth, it keeps the characters and ideas fresh and interesting to me.
I have all of allisons books, i havent read them in a long time, i pick up the new ones as i see them, would it be possible to let me know the series orders so i can make sure i have em all
Shannon wrote: "I have all of allisons books, i havent read them in a long time, i pick up the new ones as i see them, would it be possible to let me know the series orders so i can make sure i have em all"Hi Shannon: Here's my complete booklist in order. Two caveats: "Love is Murder" is a novella prequel that I actually wrote after the first book in the Lucy Kincaid series. It's available digitally, and printed in the back of IF I SHOULD DIE. "Reckless" is another novella, which will be printed in the back of COLD SNAP. They are part of the Lucy series, but also stand alone as separate mysteries. Thanks for asking!
I also have a page on my website http://www.allisonbrennan.com/books -- it's a little outdated, but accurate.

Hi Suzanne -- Thank you so much for your note! I really appreciate you taking the time to share your story, and I'm happy that my books were able to take your mind off your extremely difficult year. I can't imagine all that you've been going through. Take care of yourself and thank you again for being such a fantastic reader.
Have a good weekend.
