Guest Post with Author Tracy March and Giveaway

Today we would like to welcome back to RFTC author, Tracy March. Tracy is super fab and so nice and she is celebrating the recent release of her book Girl Three. Tracy was so nice to stop by for a chat. Please give Tracy a warm welcome.

Award-winning author Tracy March writes romantic thrillers influenced by her career in the pharmaceutical field, and her interest in science and politics. She also writes lighthearted romances inspired by her real-life happily ever after.

Always up for travel and adventure, Tracy has flown in a stunt plane, snowmobiled on the Continental Divide, ziplined in the Swiss Alps, and been chased by a bull in the mountains of St. Lucia. She loves Nationals baseball, Saturday date nights, and Dairy Queen Blizzards—and rarely goes a day without Diet Coke and Cheez-Its.

Tracy lives in Yorktown, Virginia, with her superhero husband who works for NASA. They recently spent two years living in Washington D.C., and enjoy visiting often—especially when the Nats are in town.

Romantic Thrillers and Cupcakes?

Once upon a time, in the middle of a romantic thriller, there were…cupcakes! In my recent release, Girl Three, there are thrills and romance, glamour and grit, and there are lots of off-the-tourist map spots in what I hope is an authentic Washington, DC setting. One of those spots is the quaint Red Velvet Cupcakery, just a block away from the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

My heroine, Jessica Croft, who’s trying to find out who murdered her beautiful lobbyist sister, meets with an informant at Red Velvet. She does some incredibly delicious amateur sleuthing courtesy of their signature cupcake, the Southern Belle. What heroine wouldn’t be tempted by a to-die-for cupcake with moist red velvet cake and whipped cream cheese icing? I’ve been known to make an entire meal of cream cheese icing!

Jessie’s companion, sexy Canadian diplomat Philippe Lesort, chose the Devil’s Food cupcake for himself. Who could resist rich chocolate buttermilk cake topped with Valrhona bittersweet chocolate ganache and garnished with a 24K gold leaf? Now that’s a high-end cupcake! He also scores a cupcake to take home to his toddler son—the B-day cupcake with almond blonde cake, milk chocolate icing, and confetti sprinkles. If I were Jessie, I might’ve grabbed a bite of that one, too!

One of the best parts of being an author is doing research. I had to eat Red Velvet cupcakes so I could write about them with authority…right? After all, I’m committed to getting the details right for my readers! ;) My all-time favorite Red Velvet cupcake is the Vanilla Bean. The tender blonde cake is made with vanilla beans from the Bourbon Islands of Madagascar, European butter, and buttermilk. Topped with a sweet and creamy butter cream icing, it practically melts in your mouth. *Mmm* I’ll have a dozen to go!

I sure hope you’ll check out Girl Three if you like a twisty romantic thriller. And why not enjoy it with a crazy-tasty cupcake (or two!). What’s your favorite cupcake, and have you ever eaten cupcakes while you read?

Dr. Jessica Croft has avoided the players, the power and the passions of Washington, DC. But when her estranged sister’s suspicious death is classified as natural, Jessie resolves to expose the beautiful lobbyist’s murderer. As she pursues elite suspects who’d kill to keep their secrets buried, she encounters sexy security consultant Michael Gillette, who knows more about her sister than he’ll admit.

Michael has a vested interest in Jessie’s plight. Her sister died on his watch—while he wasn’t watching. His plan to find her murderer becomes complicated when Jessie’s father hires him to protect Jessie, and his interest turns from professional…to romantic.

Jessie and Michael must unravel a mystery rife with political agendas, deceit, and betrayal. When confidential papers reveal a controversial fertility scandal surrounding the enigmatic Girl Three, the two realize the danger of exposing the truth. Who is Girl Three? And will the murderer kill again to keep a secret?
