High Heels and Homicide
by Kasey Michaels
When mystery author Maggie Kelly heads across the pond for a movie shoot—accompanied by her once-fictional, now all-too-real hero, Alexandre, Viscount Saint Just—she can only hope for a jolly good time...
Don't get me wrong—there was plenty to laugh about when we first arrived in Merry Olde England to watch one of my novels being shot as a major motion picture. Alex was delighted with the location (a seventeeth-century manor house), but horrified with the surfer-dude mimbo playing him. I, personally, found the situation hilarious... then the leading lady started rubbing up against "my" hero, leaving me no choice but to start a little flirtation of my own with the lord of the manor's nephew. It was all very Regency House Party until the scriptwriter showed up... dead.
Things are suddenly getting hot and heavy between Alex and me—and their timing is atrocious as usual, what with the murder and mayhem. Suspects? Don't get me started. There's Mr. Contemptuous Director, Ms. Man-Crazy Production Assistant, Mr. Fancy Pants English Actor, Ms. Diva Leading Lady, and... your truly. Yep, I was seen arguing with the victim right before his unfortunate demise, so I am, as the Brits would say, in a bit of a pickle.

Kasey Michaels' Bio
Kasey Michaels is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of more than seventy-five books, many of them historical romances for Avon (Regency romances to be reprinted by Harlequin beginning in 2002), Pocket, and Warner books, many of them contemporary romances for Harlequin Books and its sister company, Silhouette Books, and she is now writing single title contemporary romances for Zebra Books. With more than 8 million copies of her books in print, she is known both nationally and internationally for the stories she tells of love, laughter and, of course, romance.
Kasey has received two coveted Starred Reviews from Publisher's Weekly, and both the historical SECRETS OF THE HEART and the contemporary LOVE TO LOVE YOU BABY were named as one of that year's best romances. She is the recipient of the Romance Writer's of America RITA award for a Regency romance, THE LURID LADY LOCKPORT, a Waldenbooks' award for her time-travel, OUT OF THE BLUE, and many awards from Romantic Times magazine, including a Career Achievement award for her Regency era historical romances. She has appeared on the TODAY show, and was the subject of a Lifetime Cable TV show "A Better Way," in conjunction with Good Housekeeping magazine, a program devoted to women and how they have achieved career success in the midst of motherhood. A highly praised nonfiction book, written as Kathryn Seidick, ...OR YOU CAN LET HIM GO, detailed the story of Kasey and her family during the time of her eldest son's first kidney transplant.
Kasey has something new in the works, as she has recently signed a contract for the first three books in a continuing character series she calls a mix of mystery, comedy, romance, and just a little bit of fantasy. The first installment of the Maggie Kelly series will debut in hardcover for Zebra Books in July 2002, MAGGIE NEEDS AN ALIBI.
