When Mary O. Flournoy isn’t plotting murders (on paper, of course), she’s busy writing steamy romance novels from her Northern California home. Her unique blend of heart-pounding suspense and contemporary romance keeps readers guessing until the very end. Drawing from her firm belief that the best stories, like life itself, come with unexpected twists, Mary crafts tales where danger and desire walk hand in hand. Her novels feature determined characters navigating both treacherous scenarios and tricky relationships, often finding love in the most surprising places. Just don’t ask her why she knows so much about alibi creation—she’ll tell you it’s all for research.
