MaCoy Rosemary Russo Randolph runs a flower shop in the desert, but things aren’t coming up roses—they’re coming up murder. And because she finds two murder victims—she is a suspect.
Adding to her misery is the fact she finds herself gravitating toward the pastor of the Broom Cowboy Church. She does not believe in God. Nor does she believe in love. And she certainly espouses neither church nor “churchy” things.
During her attempt to solve the murders popping up around her and capture the killer, MaCoy is inexorably drawn closer and closer to the one person she cannot allow herself to love—Pastor Hayden Christensen.

The Hospital
by Veronica Clark
Kindle $1.99 Rating: 4.4 #ad
A shocking expose of the appalling abuse and experimentation carried out on vulnerable children at Aston Hall Hospital, Derbyshire, in the 60s and 70s.
“This book was gripping. I sat down and read it in 4 hours; I couldn’t put it down. Incredible storytelling about an experience no human being should ever have lived through. The abuse this woman underwent in childhood was deeply cruel. No child deserves to suffer that way.
Dr. Milner was clearly a monster of a person with a black hole for a heart, who inflicted unforgivable trauma on children for years. Sadly, I think this type of abusive treatment was not a total outlier in psychiatry at the time. Everyone needs to know about this atrocity. These disturbing experiments should not be shoved away in history to preserve the reputation of today’s institutions and treatments.” by Amazon Customer
