Dirty Deeds
by AJ Nuest
Genre: Romantic Suspense
An Eye for an Eye
As owner of Dirty Deeds, a tech-savvy company
specializing in the age-old art of revenge, Eden Smith knows first-hand that
secrecy is critical. But when a dead body washes up on the shores of Lake
Michigan clutching her business card, Eden’s well-constructed world begins to
fall apart. Apparently, she’s not the only one with a passion for payback, and
staying alive to outsmart a killer has become her most important job of all.
A Game for a Game
Hardened homicide detective Kelly Riordan is
convinced Eden Smith is hiding more than she’s willing to admit. Years on the
force have taught him that nothing is what it seems, and that couldn’t be truer
than when it comes to investigating the alluring owner of a revenge-for-hire
business. But revealing her past could put everything Eden has worked for in
jeopardy. And trusting a man like Riordan goes against the very instincts that
have kept her alive this long.

Do YOU need Dirty
Deeds?
When I first sat down to begin my standalone
romantic suspense, DIRTY DEEDS, the first book in my A Likely Story series, my
thoughts were where they always are at the beginning of any new
project—character development, story arc, pinpointing the bad guy and defining
Eden Smith’s revenge-for-hire company in a way that would make sense to the
reader. After all, that’s my job, and crafting a well-thought-out story is
important. But something…strange happened during the hours it took me to finish
the book. Something that, to this day, honestly makes me wish I had omniscient
powers.
Turns out, I need DIRTY DEEDS in my life. While
writing the story, I didn’t realize how many times these characters and their
area of expertise would apply. Like last week, for example, when I went in for
the same routine blood work I’ve been getting twice a year for the same meds
I’ve been taking over twenty years. The results came back perfect. My dosage
hasn’t changed and I feel great. Problem is, even though I shelled out over
$150 for the tests, the doctor in charge would only give me enough meds to last
me a month. I need to come back in and have a sit down with him, he says. About
what, I’m not sure and neither is his receptionist. She sure was happy to quote
me the office visit of an additional $70 though…which, last time I checked, was
extortion. In all the years I’ve been taking this medication I’ve never ONCE
had to go in and talk to anyone. Now, suddenly, over $200 in office fees and I
still don’t have my pills?
I NEED DIRTY DEEDS! Eden Smith would be only too
happy to take care of that nonsense for me right quick.
Or how about the fact I’ve been driving my
vehicle for over 10 years. On occasion, I’ve even had my kids in the front
passenger seat along with me. My husband and I paid over thirty grand for our
SUV, but last week I got a recall notice that if either of the front airbags
explode there’s a good chance several metal projectiles will shoot out of the
dash and lodge in my chest…and the chest of anyone else in the front seat.
Sounds to me like someone didn’t do their homework. One fender bender and the
gig is up? Not to mention, something like this must’ve already happened for the
manufacturer to issue the notice! Uh-uh. No way that’s gonna fly.
I NEED DIRTY DEEDS! Eden Smith wouldn’t let that
unfairness go unresolved for one second.
What about you? Have you ever been through an
experience when you may have needed the revenge-for-hire help of DIRTY DEEDS?
Do tell!

DeleteAJ ~ It is great to have you here! Congrats on your new book and good luck on the book tour! Also, excellent guest post! Thanks for hanging out with us today :)
ReplyDeleteOh man, there's been a few times I really could have used Dirty Deeds for a little payback. From a lying ex-husband to co-workers who stab you in the back, there's plenty of work to be done. Your premise could certainly catch on, AJ. Love the book!
