Psalm 103:2-3 Dear Lord, Thank you, Lord, for all you’ve done for me. Don’t let me forget that you are always blessing me whether I notice it or not. Thank you for forgiving my sins, and thank you for healing me. I trust you and love you, Lord. Amen 詩篇103:2-3 親愛なる主よ、 主よ、あなたが私のためにしてくださったすべてのことに感謝します。私が気づこうが気づくまいが、あなたはいつも私を祝福してくださっていることを、私に忘れさせないでください。私の罪を赦し、癒してくださってありがとうございます。主よ、あなたを信じ、あなたを愛します。 アーメン

Risking it all
Detective Melody Zachary is determined to find who killed her nephew in a drug-related murder. She's launched her teen center in his memory, to keep kids off the streets. And she'll prove to narcotics officer Parker Adams and his K-9 drug-sniffing partner, Sherlock, it's not a haven for dealers. As they risk their lives to save others, Melody discovers that Parker and she share the same deep commitment to making a difference. Will circumstances allow them to take the biggest risk yet—on love?

And now, here's Terri!
Thank you Camy for having me as a guest today. Writing for Love Inspired Suspense has been a wonderful experience. Sometimes writing can be lonely. One of the fun aspects of writing for a Harlequin imprint is the continuities. Most of Harlequin’s category lines have them.
A continuity is a series of connected books written by different authors. It’s a great way for readers to be introduced to different authors as they follow the story lines through the books. Most of the continuities are six books, but sometimes there can be as many as twelve.
Writing a continuity is like putting together a puzzle. The authors are given a thick workbook that has each author’s individual story, the overarching story and bios on all the characters and descriptions of the setting, along with any other relevant information. Then together the authors collaborate, brainstorming ideas, working out the kinks so that the overarching story line flows through all the books.
For me the best part is the camaraderie of working with my fellow authors. I’ve been involved in nine continuities so far. And though they can be challenging, I’ve enjoyed them and look forward to doing many more.
My May release, Scent of Danger, is the fifth book in the Texas K-9 series. The overarching storyline for this series is the mysterious murder of a teenager, who happens to be the nephew of my heroine. Each book features a K-9 officer and his or her canine partner. In my book, my hero Parker Adams’ partner is a beagle named Sherlock.
Camy here: And boy is that beagle cute! :)
