This year, 2012, saw the launch of A BODYGUARD OF LIES and THE DELPHI BLOODLINE, both ebooks and available on Kindle, Nook, Apple, and elsewhere. Following that first sale, I published three more women's fiction books, then branched out into writing my first love, romantic thrillers. I sold my first novel, OPERATION FAMILIA, right away and this book went on to win an award for the Best 2010 Latino Books into Movies Award. Thus, began a journey doing what I'd been wanting to do for many years-write fiction. After retiring from high school teaching, I decided life was too short to waste.
