      Dear Reader,

      When my editor suggested I give Alexa a prosthetic leg, I wondered how I could turn her into an action/adventure heroine worthy of a Bombshell book. How could a woman with that handicap possibly work undercover and kick butt? I scoured the Internet for information and still wondered how I could make this assignment work. Then I was fortunate to meet a woman who showed me that the only thing that could get in Alexa’s way was her own thoughts. Throwing Alexa out of her Ralph Lauren world and into Levi’s and leading her through an adventure that gave her a much-needed attitude adjustment turned out to be a lot of fun! I hope you enjoy reading Alexa’s story as much as I enjoyed writing it.

      Sincerely,

      Sylvie Kurtz

      Ms. Longshot

      SYLVIE KURTZ

      Flying an eight-hour solo cross-country in a Piper Arrow with only the airplane’s crackling radio and a large bag of M&M’s for company, Sylvie Kurtz realized a pilot’s life wasn’t for her. The stories zooming in and out of her mind proved more entertaining than the flight itself. Not a quitter, she finished her pilot’s course and earned her commercial license and instrument rating.

      Since then, she has traded in her wings for a keyboard, where she lets her imagination soar to create fictional adventures that explore the power of love and the thrill of suspense. When not writing, she enjoys the outdoors with her husband and two children, quilt-making, photography and reading whatever catches her interest.
