What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

LAPD Detective Kate Sexton and her canine partner, Bernie, return in, Hollywood Forbidden, the sixth book in the Hollywood Alphabet Series Thrillers.

Catalina Island is only thirty miles from Hollywood as the crow flies. It’s an idyllic place with colorful houses, shops, and a placid harbor full of boats owned by some of Hollywood’s elite. But when Kate takes a leave of absence from her job and arrives on the island she soon realizes that the peaceful retreat has another side. Her friend’s niece, Sissy, and her two best friends are all charged with murder and then kidnapped during the murder of a high profile attorney at the courthouse.

All signs point to Sissy and her friends being taken in by a sex trafficking ring. The stakes become even higher when the press learns that a deadly cult is active on the island and the deceased attorney may have been involved in one of Hollywood’s most notorious murder cases known as, The Fallen Angel.

Kate’s best friends, Natalie and Mo, become involved in the case, creating havoc at every turn, while Kate works with Catalina Detective Buck McCade who’s made his way to the island via Laredo, Texas. What follows is a high octane thrill ride as Kate and Buck try to solve a string of murders, save the girls, keep Kate’s friends from meddling in things, and unravel a notorious murder and a secret that has haunted the island for over two decades.

Hollywood Forbidden is a not to be missed thriller that hits all the high notes in a series that continues its laugh-out-loud humor, fast pace, crazy characters, and more twists and turns than a high speed chase down Hollywood Boulevard.

LAPD cop Kate Sexton is back in Hollywood after taking a much needed vacation with her canine partner, Bernie.

Hollywood Games is a puzzle that begins with a tough but vulnerable cop trying to put her life back together. Add in a hyperactive canine partner who’s already sired a love-puppy named Bubba, a new homicide partner who is allergic to dead bodies, and Kate’s meddling best friends, Natalie and Mo, who think they’re the world’s greatest private detectives.

The puzzle pieces are scattered when a high-profile realtor is found murdered, floating in his hot tub, and his partner looks good for the crime. But Kate isn’t convinced and works the case until she realizes the killing might have ties to the victim’s many love interests and the largest gang in Hollywood.

The final pieces of the puzzle come into play when Kate’s love life takes an unexpected turn, she has to move on short notice with her friends into a spooky dilapidated mansion owned by a deceased actor, and the city is threatened with a gang war.

Join Kate as she struggles to repair a personal life that’s gone off the rails while she tries to solve a crime with more twists and turns than a street in the Hollywood Hills. Throw in equal parts of humor and suspense, and you’ve got Hollywood Games, the seventh novel in the funny, crazy, wild lives of Detective Kate Sexton and her canine partner, Bernie.

Hollywood Homicide, the eighth book in the funny, crazy, wild lives of Detective Kate Sexton and her canine partner, Bernie, opens with Kate’s career taking a new turn when she’s assigned to LAPD’s new homicide unit, Section One. Kate soon realizes that Section One cases are the highest profile and most difficult homicides in the department. After teaming with her new partner, Ted Grady, Kate responds to a horrific crime scene where she finds the body of Hollywood Starlet, Scarlett Endicott.

All signs point to a Hollywood fixer, Pearce Landon, having been at work trying to clean the crime scene before leaving in a hurry when the police were called. Kate isn’t convinced of Landon’s involvement and sets out to find Scarlett’s real killer, at the same time the fixer tries to prove his own innocence. As Kate tries to deal with a difficult new boss and find the emotional strength to deal with her past relationships, she and Ted have to deal with some of Hollywood’s elite power brokers, a psychiatrist known as the “shrink to the stars,” and a hired killer.

Throw in Kate’s meddling best friends, Natalie and Mo, and a past homicide that becomes a suddenly hot cold case, and you’ve got all the ingredients for another great ride through the streets of Hollywood.

Join Kate as she tries to put her personal life back in order, at the same time she tries to solve one of the most difficult crimes she’s ever encountered. Hollywood Homicide explodes with all the thrills, twists, and turns that have made the Hollywood Alphabet Series an instant success.

LAPD Detective Kate Sexton and her canine partner Bernie are back, along with hard-headed FBI agent Joe Dawson, in Hollywood Intrigue, the ninth book in the Hollywood Alphabet Series Thrillers.

It’s a new year and a new start for Detective Kate Sexton. Kate’s just moved into new digs, she’s adjusting to life in LAPD’s elite homicide unit, Section One, and she’s moved on from her past relationship troubles. But all that suddenly changes when Kate and her partner, Ted Grady, get called to the scene of one of the most horrifying homicides they’ve ever worked. What follows is a string of killings that’s bizarre, even by Hollywood standards. As they work the crime scenes and chase after a killer called The Prophet, Kate realizes he’s taken a personal interest in her.

Throw in Kate’s meddling best friends and private investigators, Natalie and Mo, and a hard-boiled, trash talking FBI agent she’s worked with before named Joe Dawson, and you’ve got all the ingredients for another wild and crazy ride through the streets of Hollywood.
