HOUSE OF CARDS
“I think he’s going to kill me.”
A frantic phone call from her estranged sister sends Jesse Peña rushing home to Brownsville, Texas, only to find that Alicia –seven months pregnant– has vanished. Jesse is convinced her brother-in-law, Marcus Vega, is a killer but getting the police to listen isn’t easy, especially when Marcus announces that Jesse and her sister are borderline schizophrenic.
Detective Michael Cisneros is reluctant to believe Jesse's allegation. After all, Marcus Vega is a prominent citizen with a tight alibi, and this isn’t the first time she’s charged him with murder. When Michael is accused of allowing a personal relationship with her to cloud his judgment, he is forced to accept what Jesse cannot--Marcus Vega is innocent. Refusing to give up, Jesse continues her investigation unaware she’s become entangled in a chilling plot that will risk her life and make her question her sanity.
"Terri Molina's HOUSE OF CARDS is just that; an intricately balanced structure with romance, thrills, and a mystery at the center that holds it all together. Settle in for a long night and turn the phone off when you start this one!" - William Simon, author of Spider's Dance, Sometimes, There Really Are Monsters Under the
Bed, and others.

HER WILL HIS WAY
From Cobblestone Press
After her husband’s infidelity ends their ten year marriage and allegations of fraud
send her interior design business into bankruptcy, Anita Perez is more than
happy to take over her late grandfather’s flower shop in the Rio Grande valley.
However, she has a problem–she doesn’t speak Spanish, which is something her
grandmother’s sexy neighbor, Antonio Hernandez, feels the need to remind her of
on a daily basis.
Antonio has loved Anita for as long as he can remember, but the only attention she’d
give him was in willful response to a dare. Now that she’s returned to the valley Antonio will stop at nothing to win her heart. But Antonio’s plan may backfire if Anita finds out that he made a deal with the devil, and he used the flower shop to lure her into more than just his bed.
