About this author

Maureen A. Miller is the author of three romantic suspense novels, Widow's Tale, Rogue Wave and Borrowed Time.

WIDOW'S TALE was nominated by the Romance Writers of America for a Golden Heart Award in the Romantic Suspense category.

Coming this May will be the release of her new romantic suspense, ENDLESS NIGHT by Carina Press.

Working in the software industry for fifteen years in a job that required extensive travel, instead of reading during all those lengthy airport layovers, Maureen chose to write. Escapism at its best. Six novels were produced in those years of travel.

Currently, Maureen is hard at work on EYE OF THE SUN, a romantic adventure set in the heart of the Guatemalan jungle.



In the morning, the romantic suspense heroine goes to wash her coffee cup in the sink and witnesses a murder through the kitchen window. As she rushes to the phone to report it, she screams at the rattlesnake curled up under the butcher block table. How did that get there? She grabs the car keys off the counter and runs to her car, but on this day the engine won't start. The serial killer in t... read more »

Maureen Miller I received such a wonderful review today. It makes my heart soar!!!

Maureen A. Miller has caught me hook, line and sinker.

I saw this book Widow's Tale mentioned in a Kindle author forum and I must say that I am thrilled as this author caught my attention from the beginning to the end of her mystery and I had a hard time putting this story down. Maureen has a great way of describing each character and I love Hariette and her pronounciation of N.H./ Maine twang. I also love her vivid descriptions of the ocean, the descritpions of where she lived and the 2nd floor over O'Flanagans Tavern were great. I felt like I was walking through every scene with Serena. The lighthouse entrance was like you were right there touching the walls etc. I found myself gasping at a few scenes.Which is a good thing.

Love Maine and N.H. and mysteries are my genre so it was a win win for me.

I thought the formatting was great along with the editing and no typos. Great job Ms.Miller please keep these mysteries coming I also bought Victory Cove and Rogue Wave and can't wait to read them

I highly recommend this book !!
