*** COMING SEPTEMBER 30TH***

DEFENSELESS 

 

DEFENSELESS by Celeste Marsella“Meet four women who know the meaning of killer high heels. In DEFENSELESS, Celeste Marsella combines the attitude of Sex in the City with the true grit of a harrowing thriller for a potent novel guaranteed to keep you racing through the pages.”– Lisa Gardner, New York Times bestselling author of Say GoodbyeOne good lawyer… One bad choice… And a killing spree that stunned a city. DEFENSELESS is Celeste Marsella’s powerhouse debut novel of suspense and the first in a series-each novel will be narrated by a different one of the four female leads in DEFENSELESS. They’re overworked, underpaid, and unstoppable: four young lawyers in a big-city Attorney General’s office. And when it comes to relaxing after hours, Marianna Laurie, Shannon and Beth like to kick back in the one bar their boss has made off limits: a funky, Mob-connected dive-which puts them exactly at the wrong place at the wrong time. It was after midnight, just outside the bar, when a body was dumped from a car-literally, right before their eyes. And when their boss finds out they’ve defied him, Marianna takes the fall, exiled to a job inside a private college-where it just so happens a coed has just been killed. And when the killer strikes again… and again… suddenly Marianna is in the eye of the storm, alone and under seige, just where a killer wants her…

Perfectly Criminal

 

PERFECTLY CRIMINAL being released April 2009:

“They’re a perfect team: four tough, smart women who each have their own approach to life, law, and love. But assistant prosecutor Shannon Lynch has just broken ranks, falling for an ambitious politician whose idea of foreplay involves flirtation, caresses and a confession to murder.

 Shannon knows she should run the other way. But something about tall, twinkling-eyed Connecticut Senator Scott Boardman keeps her coming back—even while her office is trying to nail him for murdering his wife and her rich female lover. Shannon ’s friends–Marianna, Laurie and Beth—are trying to convince their boss, Attorney General Vincent “the Pig” Piganno, not to fire her, but then Shannon lands at the scene of another murder – and this time she’s a suspect. Now the man she can’t resist has led her into a mess she can’t escape—a realm of bluebloods and bloodlust that could cost her not just her career, but her life …”
