I have a cover!

The fifth installment in the Hoffman Grove series, BEING NEIGHBORLY, is expected to release

July 12, but I couldn't wait to show you what the new cover looks like. What do you think?

Sue Sheffield maintained a friendship with her alcoholic ex-husband, hoping he could find his way back to the man he used to be—until he fell off the wagon and wrapped his car around a tree.

When Heath Fitzgerald hears his new neighbor sobbing, he rushes to check on her. After his previous roommate’s unexpected suicide, Heath’s determined not to let anyone else suffer in silence. He tries to cheer her up—with dad jokes, his knee-jerk response to stress.

Despite his dumb jokes, Heath helps Sue through her grief. After he tells her he does voiceover work, including audiobooks, she Googles him and discovers he was a person of interest in his roommate’s death. When she asks what happened, Heath unravels. The death was ruled suicide, so why did they take Heath in for questioning? He asks her to help him find the truth, and they begin their own investigation into how Heath’s roommate died—and uncover things they don’t want to know. Solving crimes in real life isn’t as glamourous as it is in books. Rather than imagine Heath as a killer, Sue finds him a person of interest for entirely different reasons.
