If you're looking for a kick-ass heroine as beautiful as she
is deadly, a hero to die for who is full of surprises, and an
obsessed villain who will stop at nothing to have the woman
he wants, then SLEEPING WITH SKELETONS is a must
read that will keep you up long into the night. ~Liana
Laverentz, award-winning author of Thin Ice and Jake's
Return.
Kennedy writes a smart story covering the spectrum from
the dangerous world of international spies to the basic
need for love and family. I cared deeply for the intriguing
heroes from the first page, and the book's many clever and
surprising twists kept me on the edge of my chair
throughout. I wish all suspense could be so beautiful, and
all romance could be so suspenseful! ~Molly Ringle, author
of The Ghost Downstairs.

This is one of the best romantic suspense books I've read
in a while. You not only have the romance of two wonderful
characters, Margaret and Aidan. There is enough action
and suspense to fill two books instead of just one. It is so
fast paced you won't even realize you are at the end of the
book...What impressed me the most were the depths of the
characters...I can't say enough about this book... I can't
wait to read more of Doralynn Kennedy's work in the
future. She is an extremely talented author. Go pick up this
book. You will not be disappointed.

| Synopsis |
Former CIA operative Margaret Garrison is not the woman
she appears to be when she arrives in rural Ireland, hoping
to find a quiet respite from running for her life. The last
thing she needs is to catch the eye of Aidan Grimes, the
wildly popular Irish actor filming the movie Jane Eyre in
Ballyrick.
Rumored to have broken a thousand hearts, Aidan is also a
man of many surprises. The very secrecy that shrouds
Margaret compels him to want to know more about her,
which inadvertently alerts her enemies to her location and
threatens not only Margaret’s life, but those of the people
around her.
Between Aidan, his father, and a little girl desperately in
need of a mother, Margaret discovers a life she has always
dreamed of but never dared hoped for. But with the
skeletons from her past drawing nearer each day, can love
triumph over evil, or is it all just a myth?

| Excerpt |
The farmhouse’s blackened skeleton rose like an indistinct
shadow in the diminishing daylight. Even from the orchard road
the air smelled of sulfur. Danny hid the car in the trees,
wondering how far behind his pursuer was, then made his way
toward the sprawling, burned-out structure.
An eerie silence hung over the charred remains, and apart
from a few nearby animal noises and his footsteps, there were
no other sounds. He stepped over the shredded remains of the
red and yellow fire and crime scene tape, ignored the danger
signs, and walked into what had once been an entrance hall.
One side of the house, though severely fire damaged, still
stood. Beams that shouldered the ceiling now leaned
precariously; some were fallen and broken, collapsed against
furniture that had been warped and melted in the fire’s heat.
Charred and crumbling stairs led up into even greater
destruction. Most of the second floor was gone, and what
remained lay below his feet or slumped against the first floor’s
scorched walls.
The place was ready to collapse. If anything of significance
still existed in this rubble, he needed to find it quickly. The
demolition crews would arrive tomorrow to clear away the
debris. He only hoped the place didn’t bury him in the
meantime.

| The Little Engine That Could |
Have you ever read or heard the children's story, The
Little Engine That Could? It's about a long train being
pulled over a steep mountain. There are many larger engines
in the story that are asked to pull the train, but they each
give an excuse why they can't do it. Finally, a small engine
agrees to try. The little engine, chanting, "I think I can; I
think I can," succeeds where the others fail. Sleeping With
Skeletons is a small book from a small publishing house by
an unknown author, but I hope someday it will become 'The
Little Engine That Could.'
