Just as Selene begins to let her guard down, her world is turned upside down when her sister shows up in town and threatens to unravel everything she has built in a deadly cat and mouse game with the Mafia. Can Selene stop her sister before it’s too late, but even more importantly, should she?

About the author
Lisa Marie Stephenson
2 books19 followersLisa Marie Stephenson calls the North Georgia mountains home, where the rugged landscape fuels her suspenseful storytelling.
A proud Jack-of-all-trades, Lisa has worked as a paralegal, bookkeeper, executive assistant and—perhaps most fondly—chicken farmer. This is not to say the run of the mill chicken houses, but a small hobby farm with rare breeds who laid eggs as colorful as they were. Her adventures include section-hiking the Appalachian Trail, running marathons, and hunting in the wild Cohutta Wilderness, yet nothing compares to the joy and light brought by her four wonderful children.
Writing has always been a passion of hers, woven into the rare quiet moments of a full life. In a surge of inspiration mixed with a healthy portion of impulsivity, she drafted her debut suspense novel, Resilient, in just over a month and self-published it on Kindle two months later. The story continues in Reckoning, the anticipated sequel—because, as she loves to remind her readers, “It doesn’t end with the final page of Resilient.”
Several more manuscripts are well underway, each infused with the grit, heart, and determination that define her own journey. Heeding the advice of one of her literary heroes, Stephen King, Lisa is committed to writing “the damn book”—one page at a time.
