~Kally Jo Surbeck~

Everyone sees the world a little different. Award winning, multi-published author Kally Jo Surbeck just sees additional worlds and stories. Like (hopefully) the bards of the past she translates those stories to the reader to enrich and enliven their world. The characters might be contemporary assassins or demigods of the ancient past, but they all carry the strongest belief Kally has - HOPE. Hope for something, anything...everything. Of course there is humor, love, and all that fast paced action she loves as well. Please visit my website to learn more or contact me through my myspace page.

Luck of the Irish 1: For The Love Of...

Some people do it for the love of money. Some for the love of the thrill. Still others do it for the love of the kill. They do it for the love of each other.

Mac is the very best assassin that money can buy, but all she wants is to get even and get out. She's got one last job to do, and then she's free. Or so she thinks.

Gabe is an assassin, too, but at half the price. He's been hired to "clean" Mac — to get close to her, make sure she does what she's been paid for, and then kill her. Piece of cake, even for a beginner. Right?

Nothing goes according to Mac's plan. Not her hit. Not her exit strategy. And certainly not meeting her very own Adonis just days before she can hightail it to Bora Bora.

Gabe has a few problems of his own. No one told him that his target would be sassy, smart-mouthed, strong-willed MacKenzie Harmon. Or that he'd rather kiss her than kill her.

Illegal prescription drugs, money laundering, tax evasion hidden under layers of deceit. The clock is ticking and neither Mac nor Gabe stands a chance against their organization. She can sacrifice herself, or leave him today…but can she trust him to help her live?
