Things are rocking along famously here in FeaganLand.  I have several projects on offer, including the Goodnight, Texas Trilogy.  The books follow an unlikely group of Georgia ex-cons who become tight-knit friends, each eventually finding their way to Goodnight, Texas, a dusty has-been town in the west Texas desert, made to sound like Mecca by a fellow inmate.

The first book, August After Everything, is about a woman who falls in love with the man her husband hires to kill her.  August is the third daughter of a Coke exec and a Savannah belle.  Ready is a recently released ex-con trying to get back on his feet.  Under ordinary circumstances, they’d never have met.  When he’s offered five grand from a debt-ridden man who wants to cash out his wife, Ready says yes, afraid if he says no, Mark Spencer will find a guy who’ll go through with it.  First he tells August, then the cops, but as it turns out, Spencer gets off on a technicality.  Emboldened, August’s con artist husband does all he can to see that, post-divorce, she’s left with none of the assets and all the debt.  But he underestimates her.  With the help of Ready and his band of ex-cons, August goes for broke, skates along the edge of the law, and serves up justice to her rat bastard husband.  It’s divorce, Ocean’s Eleven style.

The second in the series is HURRY SUNDOWN.  After a bright, optimistic, beautiful woman is brutally beaten, she finds her way back to humanity with the unexpected help of a bitter, lonely ex-con who is the outcast heir apparent of old Connecticut money.

ROAD TO ESCONDIDO tells the story of a driven, successful single mother who is guilted into a road trip by her daughter, and finds what she didn't know she was looking for when their car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, Texas.

In addition to Goodnight, Texas, I remain enthusiastic about a whole different direction my writing took after the demise of the Bombshell line.  The idea for a series of paranormal stories about Mephistopheles, a minion of Hell, came to me out of the blue, and I decided to run with it.  The result can be seen at my alter-ego website, www.trinityfaegen.com.

And for Pink fans, here’s where we stand:  As of this moment, there are no future books in the works to continue Pink’s story.  My Bombshell editor liked the sequel proposal I sent, but suggested I submit it directly to the editors at HQN and truth to tell, I lost momentum.  In a perfect world, I’d love to write more Pink books just like the first three – make a mystery series out of her life, the interesting things she uncovers in her career, her on again–off again relationship with Ed Ravenaldt and Steve Santorelli, her love/hate thing with her mother, with her hometown, with her chosen profession as a forensic CPA.  I’m hopeful a publisher will see things my way and buy a few Pink mysteries, but in the meantime, I’m including an excerpt of the Pink sequel I wrote, but most likely won’t see published.  It’s a bit different, told in third person, instead of first.  Let me know what you think.

Thanks for stopping by!
