As I kept reading, the puzzle just got better and better.”

“By the time I reached the final chapters of Vows,
I thought I had everything figured out, however; I was wrong!”

“Be prepared to be blown away.”

“It’s a mystery, crime and romance novel that is written with style and intelligence.”

“Wonderful mystery for anyone.”

FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE #1 BESTSELLING ‘RUN, RUN, RUN’

VOWS TO KILL

Detective Inspector Lee Eyre receives an email: ‘I WILL KILL YOU ON YOUR WEDDING DAY.’

Is it a sick practical joke? Or an earnest threat? Who sent him the anonymous e-mail?

Lee is about to marry Lucy. They only met six months ago. But in the gusts of this whirlwind romance, Lee has avoided telling Lucy about his past. That past is the stuff of nightmares – gangsters with grudges, an obsessive ex-wife, and a stranger who can provide the link to a murder investigation that went tragically wrong.

Despite strange, recurring dreams, Lee’s approach has been to bury his head in the sand, pretending the past didn’t happen. But he can’t do that now. Twists and turns will cause Lee to question why he’s a police officer and whether he can go ahead and marry his perfect woman.

Will Lee and Lucy have a future? Or will it be shot down by Lee’s past?

REVIEWS ONLINE

“Get ready to get hooked on this book from page one… I liked how the author clipped the stories together in the beginning and then finally pieces everything together at the end. As I was reading, I kept thinking back to the first few chapters and wondered how and where they would fit. It was amazing when it all came together.

“This thriller does contain some romance. I liked that aspect as well. Softened it up a little for the female reader in me. Men, however, should not think it was all gushy because it definitely was not. There is a visit to a strip club :) Lee and Lucy are a perfect couple, despite what is happening. Lucy is very strong and I think that is what makes the relationship work.

“I highly recommend this book to any reader who loves a thrill. Be prepared to be blown away!”

(A Date with a Book)

“What I like most about Mark Capell’s Vow to Kill is the plot… The protagonist has a dark past that resurfaces at the wedding of he and his three-month fiance. I’m talking about ex-wife and murder dark past, crooked cops and psychiatry sessions dark past.

“After reading this book, I will make sure to never fall in love with a police officer…

“If you like thrillers, I say try this one out.”

(The Indie Book Review)

“One of the things I liked about this book was that at no point did I guess the outcome.

This book was very enjoyable, and the writing style was nice and concise which worked well. I think Vows to Kill would make a great two part TV drama!”

(aCrimeReadersBlog)

“Capell has a done a brilliant job laying the foundation of this intricate story. By the time I reached the final chapters of Vows, I thought I had everything figured out; however, I was wrong!”

(Literary, etc)

urned out and bitter after a string of disappointments, Nicola Strozyk takes a short-term gig assisting Laurie Sparks, the design world’s reigning enfant terrible. Barely in his twenties, Laurie has built himself an empire that encompasses a chic Manhattan boutique and a role on an obnoxious reality series. Part worldly sophisticate and part cheerful scatterbrain, Laurie is beautiful and extravagant; at nearly twice his age, Nicola is jaded and resolutely unglamorous. As Laurie’s burgeoning fame threatens to overwhelm him, Nicola finds herself struggling to keep him on solid ground.

When Laurie becomes obsessed with tracking down the designer of a mysterious coat, he drags Nicola along on a champagne-fueled quest that takes them from the New York catwalks to glittery Hollywood parties and swanky suites in Paris hotels. What begins as a lark takes an ominous turn when they uncover a decades-old mystery involving the murders of two young models. Along the way, the odd-couple camaraderie between Nicola and Laurie evolves into a fierce bond, which is put to the test when she must protect him from a pair of deadly threats: a mercurial fellow designer hell-bent on burying a dark secret, and an obsessive killer who has fixed his sights on Laurie.

How to Cook Healthy in a Hurry
comes

The Healthy Husband Cookbook:
More Than 50 Recipes To Feed Him Good Food And Good Health.

You were smart enough to figure out how to steal his heart. . .
now learn how to save it.
What’s the best thing you can do for your husband outside the bedroom? Help him live a long, healthy life.
Not to be a wet blanket as I start out a book that is supposed to be about enjoying great food, but we have to do something about the typical Western diet. It is killing the men we love.
Heart attacks kill 1 in 4 people every year. So count off your beloved friends, family, and don’t forget to include your spouse. Who should go first? Your husband? Of course not.
And the diabetes, obesity, and cancer rates attributable to our modern lifestyle? I know, you don’t even want to go there.
You love your husband, and you want to give him what he wants—namely to be healthy. But what do you do when what he wants to eat isn’t the best thing for him.
Turn to The Healthy Husband Cookbook with recipes for superfoods to give your husband super health.
Why the emphasis on men? Well, in my experience, men shy away from “girly food.” You know, salads in favor of a man-sized burger and fries.
And while many men do the cooking for themselves, their wives and their families, women still prepare most of the meals we eat. Consequently, women have a lot of influence on the diets of the men they love. And that’s why I’m talking to women. But you men out there? Feel free to listen in. ‘Cause I’m talkin’ to you, too.
Whether you have a husband, are a husband or know a husband, whether the husband in question is young or used to be young, this book is for you! Have I left anybody out! It’s for all of us!
We talk a lot about health and fitness these days. But eating a healthy diet can mean just making small changes that can have huge payoffs. Switching your meals to superfoods and anti-inflammation foods can help your beloved skirt heart attacks, diabetes and cancer.
“But my guy is a meat eater,” you say. “He likes chops and burgers, pizza and ribs. I don’t want to give him diet food and then have him run to the nearest fast food chain for a flavor fix.”
Who said anything about diet food or wrestling him to the ground to grab a cookie out of his hand? This is man food, with man-size flavors. If he likes chops, give him Lamb Chops with Preserved Lemons and Olives. If he’s in a burger mood, you’ll find a fat juicy burger in here. If it’s pizza night, how about one with sausage and mushrooms? When he has a hankering for barbecued ribs, well, coming right up (only this time they’re made with chicken and a killer, um no, life-saving barbecue sauce).
After all, what good are low fat recipes if your husband won’t eat them? I’ve been transforming favorite dishes into healthful versions for decades. The best of the best is in this cookbook. With a twist.
We have some new buzzwords in nutrition circles. Superfoods and anti-inflammation foods. These foods have been around forever, of course. But The Healthy Husband Cookbook puts a new emphasis on them, because now we know that they are powerful disease fighters. These are the foods that work overtime to keep us healthy. They are the foods your husband needs more of, and they are the foods that Mother Nature intended us to eat when she designed the human body. Fruits and vegetables. Lean beef and poultry.
But she didn’t say you can’t have fries with that!
In addition to recipes that are healthy, The Healthy Husband Cookbook teaches the 80/20 plan that will allow your husband to enjoy easy, healthy recipes with enough indulgences to keep his tastebuds satisfied with recipes that a easy and healthy.
