Thanks to Dolores Ayotte for the great review on Amazon: “Great Thriller!! Damaged Goods is the second book that I've read and reviewed by this talented author.

What happens when something you love becomes WORK?

Yes, that's my current dilemma. I love to read (who doesn't?) and mystery has been my favorite genre until I became acquisitions editor for Oak Tree Press. The manuscripts came fast and furious, box loads via snail mail, cyber submissions filled my e-mail. All of a sudden I was forced to speed read the first 30 pages, make decisions like a Roman…

   I'm primarily an author, but I enjoy working in business, too.
