Shenanigans

Shenanigans Book 1

by: Gail Koger

Genre: Paranormal Romantic Comedy, Supernatural Sleuth

BLURB:

Kandi Cain inherited her Dr. Doolittle abilities from her grandmother and became a psychic pet detective. To her dismay, she just acquired the power to communicate with the spirit world, but dead people give her the willies.

Just when Kandi thought her life couldn’t get more complicated, the neighbor from hell moved in next door. The nasty guy’s name is Dutch Callaghan. How can someone so gorgeous be such a dick? Kandi could chalk some of it up to his job. Dutch is a Phoenix PD homicide cop.

Kandi’s current case is rescuing a Yorkie from a brutal dog fighting ring. Little does she know her dog napping suspect is involved in a series of brutal murders. Disguised as an elderly nun, Kandi rescues the Yorkie and, in the process, blows the hell out of Dutch’s undercover operation.

Kandi now finds herself a person of interest in her client’s murder and her sexy-as-hell, pain-in-the-butt neighbor is in hot pursuit of the Ninja Nun. Is Dutch about to slap the cuffs on? Only time will tell.

The Trouble With Tigers

Shenanigans Book 2

BLURB:

Lions and tigers and skunks, oh my! Kandi Cain’s a psychic pet detective. Her cases range from wrangling baby goats, to finding lost critters. Her current case is rescuing a lion from a Nigerian warlord. Kandi knew dressing up as a demonic clown and walking a lion down a city street would freak people out. But, wow! She didn’t expect Armageddon.

The hot as hell Detective Dutch Callaghan’s on her trail again and showing more than a professional interest. Kandi’s talents have attracted the attention of a CIA black ops agent who wants her to steal twelve endangered white tigers from a Pakistani warlord. The mission’s crucial to prevent a terrorist attack.

Wait! What? Terrorists? What had she gotten herself into? Kandi wasn’t a superhero. She couldn’t bend steel with her bare hands, and she wasn’t faster than a speeding bullet. She’s Doctor Doolittle. She talks to the animals and occasionally the dead.

Howdy. My name is Gail Koger and once upon a time I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher. Too many years of wild requests, screwy questions, bizarre behavior and outrageous demands have left me with a permanent twitch and an uncontrollable craving for chocolate. I took up writing science fiction romance to keep from killing people. So far, it has worked.

A private eye with a badge, a bottle, and a little bit of magic…

Justice, Or Something Like It

The Jake Bishop Files Book 2

by: Doc Blalock

Genre: Noir Paranormal Sleuth Suspense

“Secrets. Everyone has them. Some folks keep them for good and noble reasons, others, not so much. All kinds of secrets. Personal, professional, valuable, harmful or embarrassing. People will go to extremes to keep them safe. Some folks have been willing to die for them. Some will kill to protect them. I’m Jake Bishop, private investigator. Secrets are my job.”

BLURB:

In Solomon City, everybody keeps secrets. Secrets are Jake Bishop’s job.

When a harmless old drunk is caught standing over a corpse, murder weapon in hand, the case looks open and shut—but he won’t say why he pulled the trigger. Just that it had to be done.

Bishop knows better. Digging deeper, he uncovers a blackmail scheme, a shadow war in the Irish underworld, and a threat aimed at the one person his old friend has left to lose—forcing Bishop to bend the law, and his own conscience, to see something like justice done.

A Damned Dirty Thing

The Jake Bishop Files Book 1

BLURB:

The explosion should have killed him . . .

Jake Bishop is back on the streets of Solomon City, ten months after a mob bombing destroyed his office and murdered his partner and secretary. But Bishop isn’t just any private detective—he’s a “ditch wizard” able to step through shadow and bend reality to his will.

When the beautiful and mysterious Portia Vance answers his ad for a new secretary, Bishop thinks his luck might finally be changing. Together, they begin hunting Vito Morelli, the mob boss who ordered the hit that nearly ended Bishop’s life.

Their investigation leads them through the city’s darkest corners—from strip clubs to shadow banking operations, from corrupt cops to magical wards. But in a world where bullets and spells are equally deadly, and where everyone has secrets worth killing for, Bishop discovers that the line between hunter and hunted is thinner than he thought.

Some cases require a gun. Others need magic. This one demands both.

In the shadows of Solomon City, justice comes with a price—and revenge wears a beautiful face.

A gritty noir fantasy that proves sometimes the most dangerous magic is the human heart.

"A Damned Dirty Thing," by: Doc Blalock — Book Tour & Giveaway!

 Hi everyone. Today I am featuring "A Damned Dirty Thing," by Doc Blalock. I am featuring his book today with a special guest post for you all to check out. Make sure to read about this paranormal sleuth suspense below and find out how to purchase your copy today. Happy reading everyone :).

Can you, for those who don’t know you already, tell something about yourself and how you became an author?

I’ve been telling stories for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been a lifelong reader of great literature. Writers like Hemingway, Tolkien, and Tom Clancy shaped how I think about storytelling—the efficiency of Hemingway, the poetry of Tolkien, and the attention to detail and complexity of Tom Clancy.

As a counselor, I’ve spent a lifetime listening to people talk—not just what they’re saying, but how they say it, where they hesitate, and what’s happening underneath the words. That sensitivity to voice and subtext is where I think the real strength of my writing lies, particularly in characterization.

When I retired, I finally had the time to dedicate myself fully to writing. Bringing together those literary influences with years of close listening felt like a natural progression.

What inspired you to write A Damned Dirty Thing?

A Damned Dirty Thing grew out of my lifelong fascination with the World War II era and the years immediately after it—the aesthetics, the atmosphere, and the moral certainty people believed in at the time. It was an era that tended to see the world in stark terms of right and wrong, especially in the aftermath of the war.

Jake Bishop came out of that moral framework. He’s an amalgam of characters like Rick from Casablanca and Jake Barnes from The Sun Also Rises—flawed men doing the best they can with the circumstances they’re given. They’re damaged, they’re compromised, but when it matters, they still choose to do the right thing, even when it costs them. That tension—between ideals and reality, between damage and decency—is what drives the book. The voice, the choices, and the moral pressure all flow out of watching that kind of man try to live honestly in a world that keeps asking him not to.

Convince us why you feel your story is a must read.

A Damned Dirty Thing is the story of a man with a wry sense of humor, a sharp cynicism, and a strong moral code, navigating a world of absolutes. Jake Bishop isn’t a hero in the traditional sense—he’s flawed, he’s honest, and he refuses to compromise when it comes to doing the right thing. At a time when much of literature leans toward YA, cozy romances, or heavy-handed political messaging, I wanted to offer something different: no lecturing, no moralizing, no hidden agenda—just a straightforward, Scotch-soaked, cigarette-smoked story of a man on a mission.

Readers who appreciate character-driven noir storytelling, moral tension, and a protagonist who’s as smart as he is sardonic will find this a story that stays with them long after the last page.
