A Bayou Book

Tara LeBlanc is really upset when her sisters, both Christians, have somehow convinced Grandmere to leave voodoo behind and become a Christian, too.  Who's going to teach her voodoo now?  When both her grandmother and the lady who steps into the breach in her training are struck down into mysterious comas, Tara is willing to do anything in her power to find out who is behind their illness.  Will Sheriff Theriot help or hinder her as she tries to figure things out?  And why is he so good-looking and attractive all of a sudden? 

Felicia Trahan never dreamed that volunteering at the Christian Crisis Hotline could put her life in danger.  Pastor Spence Bertrand has secrets of his own that he's hiding.  Falling more and more in love with Felicia, he feels unworthy of her.  When Felicia's best friend Jolie is murdered and her own home trashed by an intruder, life becomes dangerous in the bayou...

Alyssa LeBlanc loathes the bayou town of Lagniappe.  It represents the nightmare of her parents' death in a fiery car crash, the crash in which she almost lost her own life.  Forced to return by her Grandmere's unexpected trip to the hospital, Alyssa is greeted by witnessing the attempted murder of the Sheriff.  Her quick thinking saves his life, but puts her in danger, along with fellow reporter Jackson Devereaux, the man who unknowingly got "her" job.  Her natural prejudice against him keeps her from acknowledging her increasing attraction to him.
