Debut author, Kate Angelo is bursting onto the Christian Romantic Suspense scene writing in Lynette Eason’s Elite Guardians series with Sunrise Publishing! This episode was a hoot to record. Not only do you get a wonderful picture of what to expect from Kate’s novel, but you also get to see how another author describes working with Sunrise Publishing. Authors and readers alike will be fascinated to learn how the process progresses and how much each author learns working with such well-respected authors… and each other!

What Exciting Things Happen When a Sniper Has to Guard a… Dog?

Apparently, lots!  Especially when you combine a handler in a wheelchair, a rogue scientist, and… yeah. Stuffness. I don’t know about you, but I’m intrigued by the book itself. Adding that it is part of Sunrise Publishing’s latest series with author coach, Lynette Eason… well that just makes it that much better! EEEP!

In addition to talking all about her upcoming release on March 22 (I have my preorder in already! EEEP!), Kate explains the process she and others (you can, too!) go through in order to become a Sunrise author working with well-established and talented authors in Christian publishing!  Seriously, guys. If you have always wanted to write and think you have something to offer, why wouldn’t you take the chance at a mentorship like this?  EEEP! Kate even mentions help from other lead authors in the series like Lisa Phillips!

Finally, Kate tells us which of Lynette’s books might be fun to read before reading hers. While hers does stand alone, it’ll be a richer reading experience if you check out the books recommended in this episode. (Yes, I made sure I had those, too. How’d you guess?)

Driving Force Kate AngeloDriving Force by Kate Angelo

He’s the last client she wants to protect.

Elite Guardians bodyguard/former sniper CHRISTINA SHERMAN has protected uncooperative clients before—but this time, well her client is bossy, headstrong and occasionally eats off the floor. Yes, he’s a highly trained military working dog, but certainly her skills could be put to better use, right?

Not according to former Special Forces Air Commando GREY PARKER. He needs her help to protect his dog while he undergoes an experimental surgery that could restore his ability to walk. He just needs someone to keep his canine partner safe. Most of all, Grey wants back on his feet so he can track down a deranged scientist known as The Scavenger who unleashed a nerve agent that left Grey sidelined in a wheelchair.

When an attempt is made on Grey’s life, and dead bodies begin piling up—with evidence the same toxin is responsible—suddenly Christina is tasked with keeping both dog and soldier alive…and with them, the secrets that could stop a terrorist attack.

But this time, even Christina might be in over her head.

Dive into the exciting ignition to the Elite Guardians Collection.

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 470: A Chat with JPC Allen
byChautona Havig

Riddles? Hidden treasure? Secrets?  Sounds like things are causing chills in Marlin County! Listen in to see what fearsome things Rae Riley will face in JPC Allen’s latest mystery!

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

I just love Allen’s world in Marlin County, Ohio, and seeing her back with this new book is the highlight of my autumn. I mean, how much more Octobery can you get than a book with “Riddle” and “lonesome October” in it?  Anne Shirley (if she’d been a mystery buff, anyway) would totally approve.

A Riddle in the Lonesome October by JPC Allen

How do you survive a season of fear? October is a hard month for Rae Riley’s family. Her dad, Sheriff Walter “Mal” Malinowski lost his wife and father then. He also has to manage the trouble Halloween brings to rural Marlin County, Ohio. But this year, Rae’s uncle fights for his life after a riding accident, and a family feud over a lost inheritance erupts at a local Halloween attraction. As Rae tries to support her family, she and her cousin Amber work to unravel the 70-year-old riddle that will reveal the location of the inheritance so their great aunt Lily and her kids can gain a fortune. And Rae must deal with the secretive behavior of the deputy she’s fallen for. When a bogus medium conducts a séance to contact Cyrus Morley, the man who devised the riddle, the results stun everyone, and the aftermath is even more shocking. There’s only one way to survive a season of so much fear–and only one way to unmask a killer. 

Learn more about JPC Allen on her WEBSITE and follow her on GoodReads and BookBub.

What makes an office manager go "rogue" and get al What makes an office manager go "rogue" and get all "agent-ified?" Danger to their best agent's girlfriend, that's what. She doens't know what she's doing (the girlfriend knows more!), and she's terrified they're one blink away from certain death, but if sheer force of will can keep Erika alive, well... they've got a fighting chance.
Book 5 of the Agency file is available FREE, chapter by chapter on YouTube AND... after 2/28/25 also available in one full-length video.  Listen in individual chapters to keep easy track of where you are or in one long chunk so you don't have to keep moving to the next. Whichever works best for you!
