Dear readers, yesterday I published two new books to Kindle. My style of writing is to have several works going on at once, and when I get tired of one, move to the next. The outcome is that I often have two or three books come out at the same time. (When I say often, it happened twice. Sorry. I also tend to exaggerate.)

The new books are very different from each other; Alice's Summertime Adventure is a mix of middle-aged angst, family drama, marital misconduct and the aftermath of choice. I laughed out loud and sobbed as I was writing, and ARC readers have told me they are doing the same thing. Here's a link to my website where you may read an excerpt of Alice. http://suzannejenkins.net/excerpt-of-...

The Savant of Chelsea is a psychological thriller/suspense novel. I explain in the Author's Note that it is my first attempt at writing twenty five years ago, and evolved from a children's book to this horror story. It's a relatively short novel compared to most of my books, about 60,000 words. It was edited down from twice that number. Alexandra Donicka is a gifted brain surgeon who was abused and neglected by her mother. She spends most of her adult life attempting to redeem a wrong that was done to her. When the opportunity finally arises, the disappointment in what she discovers shakes her to her core, but something wonderful is given to her in its place.
