Autographed Paperback Copies of The Kitchen Dance

Contact me to purchase your autographed paperback copy of "The Kitchen Dance" written by Geri G. Taylor, an author who grew up in West Monroe and Ruston, LA.

Joule Dalton, a successful interior designer with a prestigious architectural firm, lived her life choreographed by her loved ones until a tragedy forces her to learn her own steps. Allen Brooks has endured his own share of manipulations and all his hard work and sacrifice has left him with nothing. He wears his troubles like the too large overcoat he picked up at a mission while living on the streets. This coat brings them together in an unexpected way. Joule takes the misfortunate Allen into her home in hopes of turning his life around. She gives him a place to live, a job, even introduces him to her wealthy friends. What she does not give him is her trust. This he must earn. The two combine their dreams and create a wonderful relationship. Then Allen gets a call that will challenge his sense of responsibility. He makes a choice, one that Joule cannot begrudge. Allen struggles with his decision while Joule goes back to her old life until they both realize what they really want. 

My debut novel, "The Kitchen Dance" is a slice of contemporary/women's fiction with a serving of mystery, a side order of suspense, a dash of crime and an extra helping (or two) of steamy romance for dessert.

Open Book Promotion Blog: Redefining Blog Tours

I suppose I just need someone to hold my hand and guide me through this process. That way, by the time my next book comes out, I'll have a better grip on how this self-promoting works.

Cat offers some great insight in what to expect from a blog tour. Yet I'm still not sure how to kick one off.

"Walking With The Devil" A Book Review

I was doing research for a book I am writing that involves its own version of "The Code of Silence" when I found Michael Quinn's book "Walking with the Devil".

I purchased the book via Amazon a while back but never had the chance to read it until now. 

My husband and I were having to make several trips to our camp to do some renovation and I thought the one hour drive back and forth would be a good opportunity to read the book aloud so that my husband could enjoy it. 

Once I started, I looked forward to our trips just to get back to this book.

As a new fictional author, I want my books to be as real as possible. "Walking with the Devil" touched on so many areas that I had included in my first few drafts and validated much of what motivated my characters who are both in law enforcement and dealing with an ethical dilemma that will either cost them their jobs or their lives.


I highly recommend Michael Quinn's book to any writer building characters in law enforcement. Not only is his work educational, it is a real page turner, and his own accounts offer much to the fallibility of every man integrity when struggling with ethical decisions in any work environment.


It is pointless for me to reiterate all the great things that have been said in other reviews on Amazon, but I have to agree that this book is a must read for everyone!

Check it out!
