Author Spotlight: Sharee Stover

Hi friends! Today, our author spotlight is on Sharee Stover! Everyone, say hello to Sharee! Without further ado, let's get to know Sharee and her book Grave Christmas Secrets.


Author Bio:
Colorado native Sharee Stover lives in Nebraska with her real-life-hero husband, three too-good-to-be-true children, and a ridiculously spoiled dog. A self-proclaimed word nerd, she loves the power of the written word to ignite, transform, and restore. She writes Christian romantic suspense combining heart-racing, nail-biting suspense and the delight of falling in love all in one. She is a member of American Christian Fiction Writers, Sisters in Crime, and Nebraska Writer’s Guild. Sharee is a triple Daphne du Maurier finalist, winner of the 2017 Wisconsin Fabulous Five Silver Quill Award, and her debut, Secret Past, won Best First Book in the 2019 National Excellence in Romance Fiction Awards. When she isn’t writing, Sharee enjoys reading, crocheting and long walks with her obnoxiously lovable German Shepherd. Visit her at https://shareestover.com/.


Here's Sharee!

Grave Christmas Secrets is by far, my most favorite book to date. Tons of research went into the story before, during, and while the manuscript was developing, including trips to the actual location of Ashfall Fossil Beds where the book opens. My research trips took me all the way from the Chief Standing Bear Bridge in South Dakota to Omaha’s Offutt Airforce Base.

I even met with a real forensic anthropologist! She was absolutely fascinating and I learned so much. I could’ve spent days touring her laboratory and asking questions. I was especially interested in her current project, which is the identification and repatriation of missing military men and women from the USS Oklahoma at Pearl Harbor. I wasn’t able to take pictures for privacy reasons, but I have a great appreciation and respect for the mission of the Department of Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency.

There’s also an abandoned school house in the book that exists here in Nebraska, too. No spoilers, but it’s my favorite scene in the story and I’m not going to lie. I kind of scared myself writing it. Talk about getting into your work. LOL.

I find all things forensic fascinating and confess, I can get stuck in the research fun for too long. But I hope that’s what makes the story believable and enjoyable to the readers.


Grave Christmas Secrets Blurb

Discovering buried evidence makes her a target.

At a prehistoric site, forensic anthropologist Taya McGill uncovers a recently buried body days before Christmas—and finds herself in a killer’s sights. Now on the run with undercover ATF agent Keegan Stryker, she must rely on him to guard her as they figure out why someone would kill to keep this murder unsolved. But can they unearth the truth before someone silences them both for good?

Book review: Grave Christmas Secrets by Sharee Stover

 

If you love edge of your seat suspense, you will love this book! Grave Christmas Secrets by Sharee Stover is a definite must read. From the first page, I couldn't put the book down. 


Taya McGill is a forensic anthropologist. I loved this job occupation for the heroine. It was different, and there were enough details in the story for me to picture what she does. Before Taya can preserve the body she's found, she is attacked and on the run. Keegan Stryker is an undercover ATF agent. He steps up to protect Taya while trying to figure out what is going on and who's behind the attack. Even in the midst of trouble, God's message shines through. The characters' struggles made them realistic. Taya struggles with her fear and trust. Keegan struggles with failing to protect. I love reading books where I can feel my faith grow as I read.

My favorite line in the story is: If you need anything, call. I'll be here before the cops are.

Sharee Stover has done it again. Another awesome suspense. Be prepared to be swept away! If you enjoy Christian romantic suspense, you will love this story! The action is fast-paced, the suspense will keep you guessing, and the ending is oh so satisfying!


I received a free copy in the hope that I would mention/review it on my blog. I was not required to give a positive review, only my honest opinion - which I've done. All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own and I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Author Spotlight: Sharee Stover

Hi friends! Today, our author spotlight is on Sharee Stover. Everyone, say hello to Sharee! She is a close friend of mine and has written several Love Inspired Suspense books. Without further ado, let's get to know Sharee and her new book Untraceable Evidence.





















Back cover blurb:

Someone’s after a deadly weapon…

and only she can stop them.

It’s undercover ATF agent Randee Jareau’s job to make sure the government’s 3-D printed “ghost gun” doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. So when someone goes after scientist Ace Steele, she must protect him…before she loses the undetectable weapon and its creator. But with a mole inside Ace’s company and everyone a suspect, this assignment could become Randee’s last.

I asked Sharee to provide an interesting tidbit about Untraceable Evidence. Here's what Sharee had to say:

Research is a large part of any book I write and in preparation for Untraceable Evidence, I started doing research a year prior. For me that might include everything from watching true crime shows like Forensic Files to reading true crime non-fiction books. I also spend time searching for just the right pictures to use for my characters and often base them on one or more actor, model, or singer. I like to visualize the character as I’m writing them but their personalities often emerge and evolve as the story deepens. Untraceable Evidence is a conglomeration of all those things. It’s funny how pieces from different sources come together to create a fictional world. I once heard it said, you could give five authors the same premise for a book and they’d create five totally unique and different stories. I believe that to be true.
When I first researched Ghost guns, 3D printer guns, and frangible ammunition, I was amazed at what I found. Creativity isn’t limited to fictional stories. I made Ghost, the gun in Untraceable Evidence, a weapon that would be completely untraceable with disintegrating bullets. That’s one of the reasons the prototype is so dangerous. And the reason the criminal militia leader will do anything to find it.


Friends, I sure hope you enjoyed getting to know Sharee Stover and Untraceable Evidence.
