Here's an early preview from Paige Crutcher, journalist and reviewer for the Examiner.com, who has this to say:
A CUTTHROAT BUSINESS is equal parts charming and sexy, with a side of suspense.
Bente Gallagher's heroine and hero, Savannah Martin and Rafe Collier, are a pairing of perfection. The prim Southern Belle and street-smart alluring rogue captivate and delight. As readers watch the two team forces in an effort to solve a murder, and attempt not to fall under each other's spell, they'll find it impossible not to enjoy the ride.
A CUTTHROAT BUSINESS is a lightning fast read that will have readers coming back for more again and again.
Thank you, Paige!
A CUTTHROAT BUSINESS is available for preorder from Amazon.com HERE.

Five Stars for "A Cutthroat Business"!!!
The first very early pre-review of the ARC of "A Cutthroat Business" is in, from Lynda Coker and Between the Pages, and it couldn't be nicer! Just listen to what she has to say:
"WOW! This series and author were new to me, and I have to tell you that they're both great. In 'A Cutthroat Business', Bente Gallagher hooks you in the first page and doesn't let go until the last. And there is something for every reading preference in her writing. Tricky plot twists, rich description, likable characters, and some villainous characters you'll love to hate. My favorite is her humor. Not heavy, in-you-face humor, but subtle, sneak-up-on-you humor that will have you chuckling out loud. The hero in this story, Rafe Collier, is straight out of my little black book of most loved 'alpha' types. And the heroine, Savannah Martin, while a capable, independent business woman, is still sweet and vulnerable. It was so amusing to watch as she pussy-footed around Rafe, not sure if he was an irresistible hunk or a killer. The elements of Mystery and Suspense weave in and around these two characters linking them in ways they both distrust, yet cannot resist."
If that isn't a fantastic review, I don't know what is! Thanks, Lynda!!!

Start Spreading the News...
OK, so the cat's out of the bag, officially, right here: the real me has signed a contract with PublishingWorks, an independent publisher in New Hampshire, to publish the Cutthroat Business mysteries, starring Savannah Martin, Southern Belle and new-minted Realtor® in Nashville, Tennessee.
Book 1, A Cutthroat Business, is tentatively scheduled for release in a year, June 2010, although I have a feeling that that might change, since DIY#3, as yet untitled, is coming out in May, and we'll probably want to give people enough time to read one before we bring out another.
A Cutthroat Business is my baby, the book that started it all. The book that got me my brilliant agent, and that made Berkley decide to offer me the chance to write the DIY-books. It has a very special place in my heart, and I'm beyond thrilled that Jeremy Townsend and the rest of the gang at PublishingWorks saw it the way I did, and decided to take a chance on it.
