Hi all! I wanted to invite you to join a Facebook group I created JUST for Written in Secret discussion! I know how exciting it can be to read a book and then disappointing to have no one to talk about it with. That’s why I created the Written in Secret Book Club group. Who knows, if it goes well, I might do it for every book!

I’ve already listed all the discussion questions from the back of the book (plus a couple extra) into individual discussion posts and an ask-the-author post. If we get enough people discussing the book, I’ll probably pull together a Facebook live or Zoom, along with some special giveaways.

I’m also hosting a giveaway for EVERYONE, regardless of whether you are on Facebook or not, called The First 50 Pages giveaway. All it requires is for you to find the answer to the question found in the first 50 pages of the book Written in Secret and fill out this Google Form. From there, you’ll be entered for a chance to win a $25 Amazon or Baker Book House gift card.

I hope to see you at the discussion group!!

In the heart of nineteenth-century Cincinnati one woman holds the power to rewrite history.

What happens when fiction becomes reality? In the corruption-infested Queen City, danger lurks in every shadow, but Lydia Pelton refuses to stay silent. She writes under a pseudonym, E. A. Dupin, crafting crime novels to exact justice and right the wrongs she sees in society. When a serial killer decides to be the sword to her pen, Lydia is confronted with the consequences of her words. Four men are dead, and the city blames her.

With murders on the rise, Officer Abraham Hall’s only lead is Lydia’s fiction, and he is thrust into an investigation with the “Killer Queen of Romance.” Despite his misgivings about the woman, he realizes that even with his reputation for catching elusive criminals, he needs her help. But his unexpected attraction to Lydia proves as difficult to manage as the woman herself.

As the mystery unfolds, Abraham and Lydia race to rewrite the ending, not only for Cincinnati’s citizens, but for their own hearts too.
