Caskets and Corruption
He's a funeral director. She's a portrait artist of the dead. While on the run from the drug cartel, can she exhume his heart?
All portrait artist Lizzie Cantrell wanted was a change in careers to avoid consoling bereaved families and dealing with death. She didn't know she'd end up stealing a dead body and a casket full of heroin and running from the drug cartel. She also didn't know she'd end up on the 6 o'clock news wanted for grand theft auto, robbery and assault on a police officer. And to top it off, she must deal with her sister's Chinese Crested, stowaway dog and a stiff-necked funeral director to boot.
Buried away as a funeral director for the past two years because of an accident that left him scarred, Phillip Van Dyke finds himself in a grave situation involving a military drug smuggling operation. Worse yet, his accomplice is a beautiful portrait artist who's managing to exhume the remains of his deceased heart.

The Story Behind This Book
The idea for Caskets and Corruption sprang from reading a romance guide book where the author stated heroes could never have an occupation like being a funeral director. I'm here to prove her wrong. The heroine's feelings about being a portrait artist are based on my own experiences with being a portrait artist in my late teens-early twenties. Caskets and Corruption deals with the hero’s and the heroine's commitment and dedication to end drug smuggling, their personal triumphs and their journey toward love.
