After witnessing her father’s death at the hands of a man she knows only as her uncle, Francesca Gallo learns years later he wasn’t family at all, but an underboss for her father, who led the most feared crime family in Sicily. It is then that she promises to avenge her father’s death by entering a career that gets her one step closer to stopping crime, even if only one mobster at a time.

When the judge presiding over the trial of mob boss, Carmine LaSappio, goes missing, the Feds set up a Sting Operation and ask Francesca to work undercover. Her assignment is to charm her way into Nicholas DelVecchio’s life to learn his secret plans. What she hadn’t expected was falling in love. Now, she struggles between love and loyalty, and an ending so explosive that it could alter her life forever.

K. T. Roberts loves all things mystery and thriller, including cozy mysteries. Growing up in small town America, she lived across the street from a police station and often witnessed cuffed criminals being dragged into the precinct. It was then that her love for the men in blue developed and her need to create stories that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Although, she never became an officer of the law, her sister did, and she’s her source for authenticity. Penning her first crime novel in 2012, the creation of the Kensington-Gerard Detective series was born. Now working on her fifth novel in the series, Sleeping with the Enemy will be released in 2021.

K. T. finds inspiration from researching true crimes and is passionate about writing suspenseful novels with crazy twists. Twists you never see coming. She knows her novel is good when she finds herself so wrapped up in her stories, the only thing that calms her down is a handful of chocolates. Her inspiration for her first crime novel was created through a conversation of idle gossip, and the rest is history.

Her thriller novels have elements of mystery, suspense, and romance. She is also the author of the Chef’s Toque series, the Cape May Capers series, and a few Christmas romances.

When she's not absorbed in a novel or working on her next thriller mystery, her favorite past time is utilizing her culinary skills of creating pastries or gourmet meals for family and friends.
