All reluctant hitwoman Maggie Lee really wants is to have a calm, normal life. She doesn’t want to go around killing people for money.She doesn’t want her sister to be terrified of her ex-pimp.She doesn’t want her Dad to disappear from the Witness Protection program.

How do you solve a murder when the victim is still alive? Maggie Lee’s murder mentor (and almost lover) Patrick Mulligan wants her to find out who poisoned him before it’s too late.

Maggie Lee’s murder mentor (and almost lover) Patrick Mulligan wants her to find out who poisoned him before it’s too late. Keeping the man she loves alive would be hard enough if all she had to worry about was not getting caught, but nothing’s ever that simple. In between dealing with her strung out cat, searching for Patrick’s poisoner, meeting a deadline to deliver a mysterious gift for her mobster boss and keeping a curious reporter on his toes, she finds herself entangled in the complicated (and potentially dangerous) romantic affairs of her Aunt Susan and her semi-psychic friend Armani. Hearts and lives are in peril. Can the kooky, klutzy assassin save them? less

So many men….so little help. Maladroit hitwoman Maggie Lee has never been one to ask for help. But now she’s found out that her niece, Katie, will soon be discharged from the hospital - making Maggie her guardian not just in name - and her semi-psychic friend Armani Vasquez has been kidnapped. Suddenly Maggie could really use some help. While her crazy, but lovable, aunts are ready to help out with Katie, none of the men in her life are willing (or able) to lend a hand to save Armani... moreSo many men….so little help. Maladroit hitwoman Maggie Lee has never been one to ask for help. But now she’s found out that her niece, Katie, will soon be discharged from the hospital - making Maggie her guardian not just in name - and her semi-psychic friend Armani Vasquez has been kidnapped. Suddenly Maggie could really use some help. While her crazy, but lovable, aunts are ready to help out with Katie, none of the men in her life are willing (or able) to lend a hand to save Armani. With both cops and bad guys telling her not to go after Armani alone, she knows the smart thing to do would be to listen to them. But Maggie’s not the type to abandon those she loves. Even with Patrick, Maggie's murder-mentor and almost-lover, and her old friend Zeke out of the picture, Maggie’s not desperate enough to bring herself to involve crime reporter Jack Stern in her quest. Armed with only Armani’s cryptic clues, and assisted by her snarky lizard, her dumb, but extremely loyal dog, and a one-eyed cat, Maggie decides to take on whoever's taken Armani. Will the lack of human help prove to be her undoing? Or will a special guy come through for her in the end? less

Imagine a high-strung, comfort loving hitwoman at a rustic spiritual retreat. Things are finally looking up for Maggie Lee. Her almost-lover Patrick is taking steps (albeit deadly ones) to insure they’ll have a future together, her niece Katie is about to be released from the hospital, her sister Marlene has stopped turning tricks and started tossing pizzas, and Maggie has a chance to land a new (legal) job... moreImagine a high-strung, comfort loving hitwoman at a rustic spiritual retreat.

Her almost-lover Patrick is taking steps (albeit deadly ones) to insure they’ll have a future together, her niece Katie is about to be released from the hospital, her sister Marlene has stopped turning tricks and started tossing pizzas, and Maggie has a chance to land a new (legal) job. If only God would stop hounding her to apologize to her mother, Maggie would be pretty close to content with her life. When Maggie agrees to take out a new target, using a spiritual retreat as her cover story, she ends up with a spoon (long story), an odd, selectively mute roommate, and a chance to save a life. As Maggie struggles to balance all the important people in her life and deliver on the deadly contract, she begins to believe that God may be right about the act of contrition he’s demanded…but will she live long enough to do it? less

Inept hitwoman Maggie Lee has a lot to juggle. She’s about to start a new job, her niece, Katie, who she is responsible for, is finally coming home from the hospital, and her ever “helpful” aunt has hired someone to help with her care. Fresh out of the Navy, Angel Delveccio is not anyone’s idea of a typical nanny. Which is convenient, considering Maggie’s life is anything but typical... moreInept hitwoman Maggie Lee has a lot to juggle.

Fresh out of the Navy, Angel Delveccio is not anyone’s idea of a typical nanny. Which is convenient, considering Maggie’s life is anything but typical. With the help of her snarky lizard, moody cat, and goofy dog, Maggie tries to solve the cold case of her sister’s disappearance, while contending with the present day threat of a violent ex-con, all while playing instant “mom” and trying to ease Katie’s transition into her new home. Can Maggie juggle it all? Or will all of these distractions prove to be deadly? less

Some jobs are more challenging than others.Take for example, Maggie’s latest assignment: assassinating a heartless, indiscriminate sniper. He deserves to die, but making that happen is tricky, especially considering that a certain red-headed police detective has been assigned to protect him.And that’s not the only job Maggie has... moreSome jobs are more challenging than others.Take for example, Maggie’s latest assignment: assassinating a heartless, indiscriminate sniper.

An investigation that puts her in harm’s way.Maggie struggles to do all her jobs, while contending with her nutty family, vague psychic predictions, an unexpected chicken, and a complicated romantic relationship.Is she up for the challenge? Or will one mistake cost her everything? less

Love and Murder are in the air. In years past, Maggie Lee has not been a fan of Valentine’s Day, but this year, the holiday has warped into its own special hell. She's stuck working at her aunt’s lingerie shop during the busiest (and cheesiest) time of the year, someone volunteered her to help with the Valentine’s Day party at her niece’s school, and there’s a hitman in town, known as the Cupid Killer... moreLove and Murder are in the air.

She's stuck working at her aunt’s lingerie shop during the busiest (and cheesiest) time of the year, someone volunteered her to help with the Valentine’s Day party at her niece’s school, and there’s a hitman in town, known as the Cupid Killer. Maggie is up to her eyeballs in declarations of love, sex toys, and candy hearts, when all she really wants is to chase down leads pertaining to her missing sister. Can Maggie survive a guy with a bow and arrow, the pain in the butt parents of school kids, and a romantic proposal? Or will she succumb to her favorite fantasy? The one where she runs away with her pets. less

You think you've got problems? Don't talk to Maggie Lee about problems. Her mother's escaped from the loony bin, and rumor has it she's robbing people for ice cream money. A mob boss is insisting she liberate his daughter from a mental hospital that Maggie's pretty sure she belongs in. And people keep trying to kill her... moreYou think you've got problems? Don't talk to Maggie Lee about problems. Her mother's escaped from the loony bin, and rumor has it she's robbing people for ice cream money. A mob boss is insisting she liberate his daughter from a mental hospital that Maggie's pretty sure she belongs in. And people keep trying to kill her. While Maggie deals with all that, she must also contend with her dysfunctional family; the challenges of parenting her orphaned niece; a handsome, but dangerously curious reporter; a hot manny who lives under her roof and gets under her skin; a smooth and sexy con man; and a certain murder mentor/cop redhead. And, honestly, it's getting too much to bear. Good thing she has her talking animals to confide in. But with everything that's going on, can the intrepid, yet inept, hitwoman figure out how to keep everyone she loves safe without ending up in jail or killed? Or will she just take up residence in a rubber room herself? Truth be told, she could use the break. less

Maggie Lee's dedication to her family knows no limits. Even though her life is in chaos, she'll take any chance to repair her fractured family. All she has do is: Get out of the loony bin Eliminate the killer who’s hunting her sister Make sure her family doesn’t go off the rails (yup, this one’s the toughest)Thankfully she’s got the help of an ex-lover, a conman, and a sexy sailor, along with her psychic friend, her loyal, but bickering, pets, and her favorite mob boss... moreMaggie Lee's dedication to her family knows no limits.

With two hitmen already killed for going after him, Maggie could use all the help she can get. Maggie’s skills (and sanity) are put to the test and the stakes have never been higher. less

Maggie Lee’s done a lot of questionable things that have made her question her own sanity. Chaperoning her niece’s class trip is one of them. Not only must she attempt to corral a bunch of energetic kids, but at the same time she has to argue with the talking lizard in her bra, avoid a mysterious doppelganger, and chase down runaway horses! And that’s just the beginning. With her relationships and alliances in flux, Maggie is uncertain of what her next steps should be... moreMaggie Lee’s done a lot of questionable things that have made her question her own sanity.

And that’s just the beginning. With her relationships and alliances in flux, Maggie is uncertain of what her next steps should be. Caught between the family drama caused by the return of her sister, Darlene, and her own efforts to save an innocent boy, Maggie struggles to make the right decisions and protect lives that hang in the balance. Can Maggie navigate these latest landmines, or will relationships, or even a life, be lost? less

Some people just can’t outrun trouble.Overwhelmed hitwoman Maggie Lee thinks she’s leaving her family worries behind when she’s convinced to take a road trip with her buddy, Armani.But pretty soon an old friend, a pesky relative, and even her pet, are asking for her help.Loyal to a fault, Maggie soon finds herself tangled in a dangerous theft involving a crime family; confronting the abusive previous owner of her cat, Piss; and dealing with family revelations that rock her world... moreSome people just can’t outrun trouble.Overwhelmed hitwoman Maggie Lee thinks she’s leaving her family worries behind when she’s convinced to take a road trip with her buddy, Armani.But pretty soon an old friend, a pesky relative, and even her pet, are asking for her help.Loyal to a fault, Maggie soon finds herself tangled in a dangerous theft involving a crime family; confronting the abusive previous owner of her cat, Piss; and dealing with family revelations that rock her world.With the assistance of psychic predictions, talking animals and unexpected allies, Maggie takes on her troubles head-on.But if she’s not careful, this “vacation” could literally be the death of her. less

What kind of trouble is Maggie in this time? The klutzy contract killer must enlist the help of both her psychic friend, Armani, and her ever-growing collection of talking pets, as she desperately searches for not one, but two, missing relatives. At the same time she’s trying to keep the peace in her crazy family and complete an unwanted assignment from mob boss, Delveccio, which could end with her on ice. And oh yeah, she’s got a date with a certain hot manny... moreWhat kind of trouble is Maggie in this time?

Just when she thinks she may be catching a break, Maggie Lee is saddled with babysitting her psychic friend, Armani, whose spirit guides have suddenly deserted her. They never warned Armani that she’d be robbed while waiting for an online date who stood her up or that someone would break into her home. But investigating the trouble in her friend's world isn’t Maggie's only problem.

But investigating the trouble in her friend's world isn’t Maggie's only problem.

Or will it all be too much for her? less

You know things are out of hand in Maggie Lee’s world when the least of her problems is tripping over a body. Her family has lost their home. Her friend, Armani, has lost her psychic mojo. And Maggie’s in danger of losing custody of her niece. Making matters even worse is she can't refuse the latest job from her mobster boss. Not to mention she must team up with her murder mentor, Patrick Mulligan, and that's….complicated... moreYou know things are out of hand in Maggie Lee’s world when the least of her problems is tripping over a body.

Even a good man makes mistakes… In Maggie Lee’s topsy-turvy world, Angel Delveccio is one of the good guys, but now it seems he’s gotten himself into some trouble. Can Maggie get him out of it?

She’s struggling to pacify both the people and pets of her household -- all of whom aren’t shy about voicing their litany of complaints and demands about their new home. Stretched thin, Maggie attempts to broker familial peace while simultaneously contending with an external threat that revolves around a human skull. And let’s not forget that a certain mobster has tasked her with keeping his nephew out of hot water. Can Maggie protect Angel while keeping her family safe and together, or will someone be lost? less

Family is everything. That’s the motto Maggie Lee lives by. She’s proven that she’ll do anything (even become an assassin…albeit an inept one, as God likes to remind her) to take care of those she loves. Even when they drive her crazy. But as Maggie attempts to reunite a young boy with his mother, her own family is in danger of falling apart... moreFamily is everything. That’s the motto Maggie Lee lives by.

The human members are facing a heartbreaking loss, the animals are mutinying against one of their own, and a missing skull is causing trouble for everyone.

Maggie Lee will do anything to protect her family…including participating in an exorcism.When her niece is threatened by an evil spirit, Maggie and her menagerie (with the help of friends Armani and RV) must find a missing skull and rob a graveyard. As if that isn't enough, they must also go on a quest to collect a list of magical ingredients (including pumpkin spice coffee, because everyone knows that’s some magical stuff right there)... moreMaggie Lee will do anything to protect her family…including participating in an exorcism.When her niece is threatened by an evil spirit, Maggie and her menagerie (with the help of friends Armani and RV) must find a missing skull and rob a graveyard.

Life’s not all fun and games…Hitwoman Maggie Lee has faced off against some bad people in the past, but nothing she has ever faced before has prepared her for her new assignment. Nothing.What could be worse than working at a kid’s game center? Flashing lights, beeping machines, screaming kids on a sugar high, and the world’s biggest claw machine may be the combination that finally pushes Maggie over the edge, as she tries to hold down a legit job as a cover for her first PI case... moreLife’s not all fun and games…Hitwoman Maggie Lee has faced off against some bad people in the past, but nothing she has ever faced before has prepared her for her new assignment.

While she’s “off” she has to deal with family drama, dangerous dancers, a weird job assignment from the mob boss, and a VERY high stakes poker game.Thankfully she’s got her animals to confide in, a bodyguard who’s looking out for her and a certain police detective on her side.Maggie’s got to deal with the hand she’s been dealt…but there’s no guarantee she’ll come out the winner. less

Maggie Lee may be an inept hitwoman, but she pays her debts.When Maggie told her friend Mia that she’d help her out of any mess she found herself in, she meant it. Of course they’d both been fifteen at the time.Maggie hasn't seen Mia in forever, until she suddenly shows up, intent on holding Maggie to her promise.

Mia's husband has disappeared, taking their money with him and she desperately needs it.While Maggie has other things to worry about, namely protecting her father from whoever is trying to kill him, Mia makes it impossible for her to not reciprocate the favor.Bound by a pinky swear, Maggie tracks down Mia’s soon-to-be-ex but doing so puts her at odds with the guys who have her back: Patrick, Zeke and Gino.If Maggie’s not careful, her long-ago promise could have deadly consequences…especially since her psychic friend has predicted she’s going to die. less

Maggie Lee has done some really questionable things, but she’s never stooped so low as to steal a child’s toy. There’s a first time for everything.Maggie’s life is always complicated, but her tenuous balancing act becomes even more dangerous when she’s given the job of stealing a teddy bear from the grandson of the mobster Delveccio... moreMaggie Lee has done some really questionable things, but she’s never stooped so low as to steal a child’s toy.

When mob boss Delveccio is framed for murder, it's up to everyone's favorite hitwoman to prove he didn't do it.But that's not the only problem Maggie and her menagerie are dealing with. It's not even the biggest one.The person who is threatening to kill Maggie's entire family needs to be dealt with.Things are going to get messy...even by Maggie's standards.

Maggie Lee is a woman who pays her debts and now she’s running herself ragged.When the mysterious Ms. Whitehat asks her to work at a dentist’s office to gain access to a safe, Maggie can’t say no.She probably should have turned down her murder mentor, Patrick Mulligan, when he wants her to tail a suspicious cop, but she owes him.And she also couldn’t refuse to help US Marshal Griswald when he requests her assistance to solve one last case before he retires... moreMaggie Lee is a woman who pays her debts and now she’s running herself ragged.When the mysterious Ms. Whitehat asks her to work at a dentist’s office to gain access to a safe, Maggie can’t say no.She probably should have turned down her murder mentor, Patrick Mulligan, when he wants her to tail a suspicious cop, but she owes him.And she also couldn’t refuse to help US Marshal Griswald when he requests her assistance to solve one last case before he retires.Speaking of his retirement, Aunt Susan is planning the party of the century for him and she expects Maggie to bring a date.But making it to the party on time may prove difficult since repaying her debts has resulted in Maggie doing a dangerous dance with a killer. less

No good deed goes unpunished.When Maggie Lee helps an old man who’s fallen, she ends up working as a courier for his well-to-do son.Proud of herself for landing a legitimate job that doesn’t involve a windowless office, Maggie ignores red flags and the concerns of God that all may not be what it seems. She’s too busy traversing the landmines of literacy involving a certain mobster’s grandson and juggling the two men who both want more from their relationships with her... moreNo good deed goes unpunished.When Maggie Lee helps an old man who’s fallen, she ends up working as a courier for his well-to-do son.Proud of herself for landing a legitimate job that doesn’t involve a windowless office, Maggie ignores red flags and the concerns of God that all may not be what it seems.
