Flirting With Death: Assassins Anonymous, Step One is the story of Kayla McKenna, a former CIA assassin who finds herself burned from the agency and trying to live in a world she has completely lost touch with. I hope you enjoy it!
Description:
Is there a twelve-step program for recovering assassins?
Kayla McKenna knows what it feels like to kill another human being—and she likes it. After her father was murdered by terrorists, she was consumed by the need for revenge. But landing her dream job as a CIA assassin turns out to be merely a stepping stone to retribution. One botched mission earns Kayla a burn notice, a bullet hole and a one-way ticket back to suburbia. Stuck on her childhood stomping grounds with a meddling, shopping-addicted mother intent on grandkids, three overprotective cop brothers, a sexy criminal who can’t decide whether he wants to kill her or date her, and a new boyfriend even her family loves, Kayla may finally get the chance to find out what really matters in life. That is if living a normal life doesn’t kill her first.
**Flirting With Murder**
Kayla really is trying to be a good girl in Flirting With Murder, but between her chaotic love life, rogue assassins on her tail, crazy psychics and a family with more secrets than the Pentagon, it's HARD!!! So, she may occasionally fall of the wagon on her road to recovery, but what a ride. And really, do we want her to be an angel? Where's the fun in that? Her karma may have a few things to say about it, but for now being bad is just a little too irresistible.

Step Three Update
7/6/13
Flirting With Secrets is now available.
In the 3rd installment of the Assassins Anonymous series, Kayla is finally free of her CIA, FBI and Freak Show (AKA, The Program) tethers. At least, she's pretty sure things are heading in that direction. After all, it's about frigging time karma smiled on her - she hasn't shot anyone in... months! But nothing is ever easy for our poor recovering assassin. Her ex is turning into something of a stalker, her... who knows what kind of label to put on Dmitri, but whatever he is, he's MIA - again! Her mother keeps letting little secrets slip that are wreaking havoc with Kayla's sanity. And to top it all off, her impulse control is at an all-time low.
At least she hasn't crapped her pants in public lately, unlike Gramps - who retaliates by tranquilizing the delivery man. Good times. Now if only she could get her blackmailer off her back (did I forget to mention that part?) so she can locate Dmitri, find out if he actually is a lying, cheating jerknut, and get on with conforming to suburbia.
Combining mystery, edgy chick-lit, and a dash of paranormal, FLIRTING WITH SECRETS is a foray into the life of a snarky ex-hitwoman who quickly discovers that living a "normal" life may just be her most difficult mission so far.
After all, she's making this twelve-step program for recovering assassins up as she goes along.
The Assassins Anonymous series:
Flirting With Death - Step One
Flirting With Murder - Step Two
Flirting With Secrets - Step Three
Flirting With Fame - Step Four (Coming in 2014)

ReplyDeleteHi Kristi!
DeleteWooHoo!!! So glad you liked them! Especially Flirting With Murder, since I've been biting my nails to hear what people think!!! Nobody has reviewed it so far, so I was worrying that it was a flop...
Flirting With Secrets is about halfway done. I hate to promise a release date, having overshot my deadline for FWM by about six months, but I am hoping for early summer:-).
Thanks for reaching out to me (I've been neglecting my site here for far too long). I really appreciate your kind words.
Happy Reading!

Hello Heidi!
ReplyDeleteI happened to have bought "Flirting with death" from Amazon when it was free like 2 weeks ago and its very hard to put down! I'm almost done with it and plan on buying the second one as soon as I'm done. I'm happy to see that you plan on writing another one, I can't wait for that to come out. Great job! I will be leaving reviews on Amazon and GoodReads when I'm done.

Hi heide I'm really looking forward to your third book coming out after reading Flirting with Death and Flirting with Secrets were so addictive to read and very difficult to put down. Love your characters and also the story lines.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for reading, Tinkerbell! I'm so glad you're enjoying Kayla's wild adventures. I released Flirting With Secrets today, so I hope you have fun reading it, too! (That's also why this response is soooo late... sorry for the delay!!!)
DeleteI hope you're having a great summer!
Best,
Heidi
Sorry I meant Flirting with Murder.
ReplyDeleteHi Heidi,
ReplyDeleteI had read the Mystic Series awhile ago. Jumped on here to see if there were new books. And discovered the Assassins series. I LOVE your writing! I read the first two books in two days, because I couldn't put them down! I am forcing myself to wait for the third one until this weekend, otherwise I'd never get sleep ;) I am totally addicted...don't know what I'll do after I'm done with the third book... !! :D
Any new updates on when step 4, flirting with fame is coming out? I am so excited for it.
ReplyDeleteTrying to patiently wait for Step 4: Flirting with Fame. Any updates on a release date? Winter is around the corner and I'm stocking up on books to read as I like to hibernate at home with a good book :-)
ReplyDeleteHey.
ReplyDeleteJust wondering if we are ever going to get step 4?
Where is step 4?
