author : Kathy BennettHi there!\n\nI’m Kathy Bennett.\u2028A little about me—I worked for the LAPD for twenty-nine years. Eight years were spent as a civilian employee, and I served twenty-one years as a police officer. While most of my career was spent in a patrol car, I also worked at the police academy as a firearms instructor, promoted to the position of a field training officer, then worked in the “War Room” as a crime analyst. I promoted again, this time to the position of Senior Lead Officer—where I was in charge of a basic car area within a geographic division. I’ve done a few stints undercover and was honored to be named Officer of the Year in 1997.\n \nIn my spare time, I started writing romance books. However, I wasn’t really cut out to be a romance author—I’d forget to write the romance, but I was always killing off one or more characters in the book. After a few years, I realized I’d better write what I know: Authentic Crime… Arresting Stories. (Yeah, that catchy phrase is a part of my brand.) One of the books in my Deadly Thriller series, A Deadly Blessing, was chosen by Barnes and Noble as one of the best original Nook books of the year. \n\nI live in Idaho with my husband and soul mate, who is also a retired LAPD officer. We have two entertaining and energetic Labrador retrievers, and two cats who aren’t nearly as active or amusing, but they’re loved just as much. I like to garden, exercise, and spend time with our daughter and her family. Life doesn’t get much better than the one I’m living.\n\nBooks in my Deadly series: \n\nA Dozen Deadly Roses\nA Deadly Blessing\nA Deadly Justice\nA Deadly Denial\nA Deadly Beauty\nA Deadly Prayer (Novella)\nA Deadly Blood Moon\n\nBooks in the Buckner Thriller Suspense trilogy:\n\nCollateral Damage\n\n View more >>Kathy Bennett Book Series
