The 3 female protagonist thrillers CIA FALL GUY & LT. COMMANDER MOLLIE SANDERS & HOT POTATO are now available in one ebook -- BRAINS BEFORE BEAUTY:

CIA FALL GUY: Is Beth Parsons being set up as a fall guy for someone within the CIA?

It's 1997 and Beth Parsons -- a widow whose husband was killed years earlier in a bombing at the U.S. Army Officers Club in Frankfurt, Germany -- is summoned to CIA headquarters. The supposed reason for the summons is to identify someone from when she was stationed in Germany. When the man who drove her to the CIA is shot and killed, she realizes that all may not be as it seems. To protect herself she escapes from her CIA babysitters and sets off to discover the truth. Her quest takes her to Europe and back again to the U.S., and this pairs her with the man who may have been responsible for her husband’s death -- and to whom she is increasingly attracted.

LT. COMMANDER MOLLIE SANDERS: LCDR Mollie Sanders is a U.S. Navy officer who has striven to be the best even if it earns her enemies. A graduate of the Naval Academy, she is an electronic weapons officer tasked with coming up with new weapon designs.

When she gets assigned to an aircraft carrier as a Navy fighter pilot's backseater, a missile attack on her plane leads to a mission to try to save the port of Los Angeles from a suspected terrorist attack. She must channel her overwhelming competitive drive in order to work as a team with other Navy personnel and the Coast Guards to find a needle in a haystack. From there a twist in the mission takes her to Alaska, where the anti-missile defense site may have been compromised. Next she bulldozes her way into being the first female assigned to a sub smaller than a boomer. She wants to be the one to test the new defensive weapons system she designed as the sub undertakes a reconnaissance mission to the hotly contested South China Sea. LCDR Sanders is unaware that her past is about to catch up to her present in a bizarre situation she could never have foreseen.

HOT POTATO: If you love the classic film "Bringing Up Baby" -- the screwball thriller HOT POTATO is for you!

An American con artist attempts to scam gold from the Russians. His scheme goes awry when an American arms saleswoman discovers that he has mistakenly acquired a suitcase nuclear weapon. From then on the woman leads the con artist on a chase against Europe in an attempt to avoid two different teams of Russian military intent on getting their hands on the suitcase nuke.
