I finished writing Sushi and Suspicions and turned it in! To celebrate, I ate my favorite peach jelly from Minamoto Kichoan ! I was a bit surprised to realize at the end of the book that there wasn’t as much romance as in some of my other books, maybe because there were a lot of characters in this book compared to other romantic suspense novels I’ve written. Sushi and Suspicions will be releasing in June in the multi-author box set Summer Suspicions . Even though it’s a box set, each Christian Romantic Suspense novel in it is a full book, so it’s a great deal! Preorder Summer Suspicions for only 99 cents!

Okay, I need suggestions from y’all.
I’m writing my romantic suspense for Steeple Hill and I need good writing music!
For example, my friend MaryLu Tyndall writes pirate historical romances, and she listened to the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack when writing her Legacy of the King’s Pirates series.
My book is set in Sonoma wine country, but it’s set in a day spa.
And it’s got a dead body.
I want nice, suspenseful music to get in the mood.
Suggestions?

I stumbled across her song while blogging one night, thought I'd check it out, and it's stuck with me ever since.
I listen to Pirates #2, it has some great beats for the suspense. Also, while I was writing book #2 I listened to Matt Bronleewe's Illuminated soundtrack and Micheal W. Smith's Freedom.
If it's really tense, I'll listen to music by Evanscene, but I suggest it only if you don't mind some of the wording. I freaked one night listening to that and writing a scene where my heroine was in big trouble. Had to close up shop til daylight hours. LOL!
I usually listen to something that doesn't have words so I'm less likely to sing with it and has a good hard beat to it.
cant think of a pyschotic spa music theme.
I know how music can affect things.
I was reading a series about mormons by Marion Wells and listening to Randy Stonehill at the time and I just cant listen to a couple of songs without feeling a strange reaction. The books were set when the Mormans started adn there was some really nasty stuff in the books.
