To answer your question, I am planning a fourth book for the Cruz series, but I'm not sure when it will come out. It's with a different publisher than the Guerrera series, so the schedules have to work.
In the meantime, THE FALCON released today!! You and your fellow nurses (hugs to all of you for the amazing work you do) can find out what happens to Nina next. This one required a ton of research and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it.(less)
Isabella Maldonado YES!!! I am writing it right now. Stay tuned for an announcement on the upcoming publication date. I'm so excited...…moreYES!!! I am writing it right now. Stay tuned for an announcement on the upcoming publication date. I'm so excited...(less)

“She’d risked her life for both. Could she ally herself—even on a temporary basis—with someone who had no loyalty, no allegiance, and no moral compass?”
Isabella Maldonado, A Killer’s Game

“A quick check of the video feed revealed that Daniela Vega was a problem. The woman was changing the dynamics of the game. Her growing legions of fans were skewing the data.”
Isabella Maldonado, A Killer’s Game

“I think he used the contacts he had gained during his last assignment at the Pentagon to gain money and power denied to him in his military career,” Cattrall added.”
