    Read the fourth installment in the Risky Research series: A Measure of Madness by Kim McMahill @kimmcmahill #RLFblog #RomanticSuspenseIn Kim McMahill’s new romantic suspense novel, A Measure of Madness, a deadly organization out to control the diet and nutrition industries has been dealt a major blow. Its members are forced to flee, but there is nowhere they can hide from a relentless FBI Agent out for justice.

    Kim, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your series.

    A Measure of Madness in the Risky Research Series

    Genre Romantic Suspense

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG 13

    FBI agent Devyn Nash’s pursuit of a deadly organization heats up in this fourth installment of the Risky Research series.

    The FBI locates the mastermind behind Coterie, but attempts to bring him in result in a shootout that sends Coterie’s members scrambling for cover. When Devyn’s partner is left fighting for his life in a Puerto Rican hospital, she becomes more determined than ever to bring them to justice.

    Devyn’s decision to ignore her orders and pursue the head of Coterie to Brazil puts her job and her relationship with Sheriff Gage Harris in jeopardy, but she is unwilling to allow those responsible for so much death to live out their lives in paradise.

    Which book is this in the series?

    A Measure of Madness is the fourth book in the series

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    I plan to end the series after the fifth full-length novel. There are two perma-free prequels to accompany the series, A Formidable Foe and Midnight in Montana.

    How many books are completed?

    Four books are complete and the fifth is in the works.

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    FBI Agent Devyn Nash, her partner Nick Melonis, and the object of Devyn’s affection, Wyoming Sheriff Gage Harris.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    The Risky Research Series is about a deadly group, known as Coterie, that is out to control the diet, nutrition, and health product industry worth billions, and those who will stop and nothing to end their dangerous game.

    Please list the series titles below, in any order you prefer.

    A Dose of Danger (book #1)
    A Taste of Tragedy (book #2)
    A Foundation of Fear (book #3)
    A Measure of Madness (book #4)
    A Formidable Foe (perma-free prequel novelette)
    Midnight in Montana (perma-free micro-read)

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    A series gives the reader the opportunity to really get to know the characters and see them grow. This particular series was interesting to write because there are so many facets of the lucrative diet and nutrition industry to explore. Nearly every woman I know educates herself about nutrition, exercise, fitness, diets, etc. in order to live a healthier life, manage a medical issue, or to lose weight. There is so much information out there that it is difficult to sort out fact from fiction. The diet and nutrition industries are worth billions, which makes it even more challenging to ascertain who or what to trust. With so much on the line for so many, there is no doubt that plenty of corruption and crime infiltrate the industry.

    What other books (not in this series, have you written?)

    Other books I’ve written that are still in print include:
    Marked in Mexico
    Shrouded in Secrets
    Big Horn Storm
    Deadly Exodus

    Daughter of the Deepwood by Holly Bargo

    Lifetime imprisonment for an immortal doesn’t bear consideration. As cold iron burns his skin and dampens his magic, fae captain Falco wrenches power and freedom from the broken body of another prisoner—a witchbreed female—tossed into his cell to make room for a new harvest of criminals. Honor and obligation mandate that he not abandon her.
    Unable to heal her extensive injuries, he takes the dying witchbreed to the heart of the Great Forest where the most ancient magic lives. His plea granted, the woman is remade of a blend of his blood, her flesh, and deep magic. Bound by his debt, Falco takes Calista as his mate when he returns home to Froúrio Daimónafae, a sentient fortress-city carved from a mountain. Although he regrets his intended fae mate’s anger, his increasing affection and desire for his witchbreed mate surprise him.
    Lost in a foreign culture, spurned by the fae, her body unfamiliar to her, and unable to believe in Falco’s professed affections, Calista makes her own destiny and realizes the fate of an unfriendly nation rests upon her shoulders.

    Ten years and Janey hasn’t forgotten the love of her life…or that he abandoned her on prom night. Bound by duty and honor, he was shipped out to parts unknown by Uncle Sam. But she knew he’d go because adventure is in Matt’s blood. Being stuck in a small town with plain Jane the librarian wasn’t ever in his plans.
    Trapped by a flood, with no phone or power, desire tempts them both. Will passion—and Matt’s offer to recreate prom night—lead to a future together? Or are they just dancing in the dark?

    A Foundation of Fear by Kim McMahill @kimmcmahill #RLFblog #NewRelease #RomanticSuspenseKim McMahill, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.

    A Foundation of Fear by Kim McMahill

    Genre: Romantic Suspense
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13
    FBI Special Agent Devyn Nash is obsessed with taking down Coterie, a deadly group out to control the multi-billion-dollar diet product industry. The FBI’s plan to expose Coterie places Devyn’s best friend and her partner’s fiancé in the crosshairs of this ruthless organization. Can Devyn protect her friend and bring the coldblooded killers to justice before they strike again while distracted by injury, a sexist bully, and a long-distance relationship with a handsome Wyoming sheriff?
    Lobbyist and Coterie assassin Sofia Wilks wants nothing more than to regain control of her life. Sofia knows Agent Nash is nipping at her heels, but the FBI agent isn’t the worst of her fears. She is drawn to a man who has the power to destroy her.
    Why did you write this book?
    A Foundation of Fear is the third novel in the Risky Research Series. This story had to be written because FBI Agent Devyn Nash still has a lot of work to do to bring a deadly group to justice, and she has no intention of giving up on the smoking hot Wyoming sheriff who has stolen her heart.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    I love to read, write, and watch stories with filled with action, adventure, suspense and a bit of romance.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    I’ve read every book in Clive Cussler’s Dirk Pitt series, so I guess I’d have to say, Dirk Pitt.
    What are you working on at the moment?
    I recently finished book four in the Risky Research Series, A Measure of Madness, and have sent it to my publisher. I also just completed a prequel novelette for the series, A Formidable Foe, which will be free to download. As soon as I kick off A Foundation of Fear, I’ll jump into book 5.
    What books will we see from you in coming months?
    It may be more than months, but I’m hoping A Measure of Madness isn’t too far behind A Foundation of Fear.
