Blurb:
Longboat Key, Florida, is about as far from the streets of Detroit as a group of gay former mobsters can get, but threats from within their own organization forced them into witness protection—and a new life.
Richard Marsden is making the best of his second chance, tending bar and learning who he is outside of organized crime… and flirting with the cute single dad, Daniel, who comes in every Wednesday. But much like Richard, Daniel hides dark secrets that could get him killed. When Daniel’s past as a hacker catches up to him, Richard has the skills to help Daniel out, but not without raising some serious questions and risking his own new identity and the friends who went into hiding with him.
Solving problems like Daniel’s is what Richard does best—and what he’s trying to escape. But finding a way to keep Daniel and his son safe without sacrificing the person he’s becoming will take some imagination, and the stakes have never been higher. This time it’s not just lives on the line—it’s his heart….

Bad To Be Good is book 1 in an all new series how many titles will there be in this series, and what is or was the inspiration for this series?
Bad to the Good is the first book in a brand new series. There will be three books in this series, one for each of my former mobsters. The inspiration for the series came from a friend. Christi Barth wrote a series about former mobsters and witness protection. At an event, I got a copy and she signed it to me. When I got home, I sat down to read the story, got as far as finishing the prologue and had to stop. The idea for Bad to be Good came to me right there. The story laid out like a roadmap. I didn’t read the rest of the book because I didn’t want it to influence my story. Bad to be Good is dedicated to Christi.
The location I chose for the story is because of a visit I made to the area with Karen Rose and her husband. I loved the area and I thought it would be a great location for three former mobsters used to the action of the big city, living in a rather sleep, touristy area where nothing really happens. Or does it…?
