Profile of Author Robert Kerins of the Lewiston Writers Group

Robert Kerins


Robert Kerins retired after serving over 20 years as a police officer and lieutenant. He’s investigated every crime from Abandoned Children to Welfare Fraud. After his police career, he worked in disaster relief for fifteen years, and retired in 2008. His disaster relief work took him to all parts of the U.S., including Puerto Rico, Guam, and Saipan. He now spends his time writing. He lives in Lewiston, NY with his wife.




While investigating the homicide of a teenage girl, Detective Lieutenant Alec Theron and his partner, Orca learn the murdered girl's English teacher had been having illicit sex with the 14-year-old. The detectives must pit their skills against interference from the suspect's mother, who is a backroom political powerhouse. 

Detective lieutenant Alec Theron and his detective partner Orson "Orca" Sanders are at it again. This time they've discovered a severed head. The case leads them to a series of missing tourists and visitors to Niagara Falls. The reason for their disappearances scares the bejesus out of them.
Meanwhile, a group of senior citizens have devised a unique way to finance one of their owns cancer treatments.

A happily married man whose wife cannot bear children takes matters into his own hands.

When the bodies of four teenage girls, are found tied to a rope and floating in the lower Niagara River, the best investigator in the county, police officer Alec Theron, takes on the case. Theron fights a shadowy organization whose main activity is human trafficking for prostitution, using the Niagara River along the Canadian–American border. 
The evidence points to a fifth girl who survived the drowning and is out there somewhere. Theron suspects that she fears she will be caught by the smugglers and killed, but she’s more afraid that she will be found by the authorities and sent back. Theron finds the girl and she is able to identify the men who drowned her friends. The girl leads him to the criminal organization. Theron’s investigation uncovers the secrets of this organization and threatens to topple the empire they’ve built and run for decades. Theron collides with the criminals in the rapids above the roaring Niagara Falls. The climax takes place in the rushing water, literally feet from the brink of the falls.

Niagara Falls police detective, Alec Theron, meets Jalila Rouchai, and love blossoms almost immediately. When Jalila and her young son leave to pay respects to her husband’s grave at Arlington, her brother-in-law, Masood, abducts them. A radical Muslim and childless, Masood insists that he raise his brother’s son under his own perverse interpretation of the Quran. Theron rescues his new love and her son. Theron learns that Masood is a high-ranking terrorist preparing to attack the U.S. with a bio-weapon.
As one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Niagara Falls attracts tourists from all over the globe. Now it has drawn Masood. His terrorist cell has obtained a super smallpox virus and a means to spray the deadly mist over the thousands of tourists visiting the falls at Niagara. His victims will carry the deadly disease around the infidel world.
Theron, working with the FBI, must infiltrate the terrorists’ bio-lab to render their weapon harmless, and then capture all members of the cell. At the same time, he must stop Masood from taking his lover’s young son.

Leaving Kate by JD Corbett


#CandidBookReviews

First, I want to thank JD Corbett for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.

Leaving Kate is the first book I have had the honor to read and review JD Corbett. This story was very powerful on many levels. This book touched on so many relevant topics today that need to be addressed. So many times I wanted to jump into the book and hug the characters.

I loved the fact that Kate and Ernest were both twins. I loved how their parents named them after Ernest Hemingway and his second wife Pauline. Their mom looked up to that couple.

My heart went out to Eric whose father was killed while in active duty in the Marines. He was only 9 years old when he opened the door to uniformed officers and found out the news. No child should have to find out that way. In a twist to the story I love how Eric wanted to enlist and make his Dad proud.

I was very interested to learn about the grief camp that Eric took Kate to. It is a camp that they bring children to whose parent were killed in line of duty. They work with councilors and play with the horses. Eric was very good with the kids and it melted my heart.

I despised Kate’s step father and how he treated her. No parent or any man should treat any woman the way he was treating her. Sober or drunk.

I loved the friendship and budding relationship that Eric and Kate were forming.

Perfect date night for Eric and Kate!! Watching The Notebook underneath the stars!

I enjoyed getting to know JD Corbett at the end of the book there is a write up about her. You can tell that she has a passion for writing and extremely talented at it too. I would be honored to read and review for her again.

Binding Contracts by Jamie Sterling




First, I want to thank Jamie Sterling for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.
Binding Contracts by Jamie Sterling I enjoyed much more than I did her previous book Captured Hunter! In fact, I think I found a new favorite Erotic Author in Jamie Sterling!

Jamie you had me hooked line and sinker from the first page. Believe it or not that situation in the first part of the book happened to me! So, It was like I was reading my story! You nailed it on the head with the emotions Tara was feeling! I was team Tara on this one!!! I was emotionally involved with this story at this point! I needed to know what Spenser was going to do next now that he was no longer going to be with her.

Jamie picked a storyline that I always wondered what would happen if that happened in real life. Being on dating sites myself (not the type of ones in the book) you wonder if a coworker or a client you work with is on the same dating site and what if you messaged them not knowing. Well, this is what happens in the book. There is a unique twist to it. Spencer is into BDSM and is on the dating website that his client Denise just signed up for. She doesn’t know that he is the one messaging her. Oh the story gets so juicy!!

One thing I loved about this story and Jamie’s writing was it was written tastefully. Not like many other BDSM books you read where it is pure sex. This one actually had a really good story to it. She developed the characters well so you got to know them. She made it so Spenser was not pressuring Denise to go faster than she was being new to the lifestyle.

Leslie was an amazing best friend who gave amazing advice. She was right all along!
Dating and finding that perfect man is hard. But WOW! That blind date she went on took the cake!!! He even freaked me out and I was just reading the book.

I love how authors write about the author pages in the book. I enjoy getting a glimpse into the person whom works so hard on writing their book for us readers. As Jamie is so passionate about writing is the way I feel about reading and reviewing for her. You can tell especially in this book her passion for writing and her subject matter.  To me that makes a great writer.


Captured Hunter by Jamie Sterling


First, I want to thank Jamie Sterling for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

Captured Hunter by Jamie Sterling I can honestly say is the most unique BDSM book I have ever read before. If I didn’t know a head of time that it was that genre of book you would never guess it.

This book started out very innocently. I actually liked how Hunter met Dr. Stephanie research astronomer and assistant chair of the Astronomy Department at the University.  She was giving a tour and they hit it off.  They seemed like a good pair both into science related stuff.

If I were Stephanie I don’t think I would appreciate a guy taking me to a Haunted House on a date. Especially where there were ghosts.

The story in my eyes got good when he confessed about a secret he had. He liked Stephanie a lot and didn’t want to hurt her feelings but needed to tell her. He risked losing her but it was something he was willing to do.

This book starts out very slow in my opinion and then heats up at the end.

Crazy Little Town Called Love by Jill Hannah Anderson


#PandaMoonPublishing
First, I would like to thank Jill Hannah Anderson and PandaMoon Publishing for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

Crazy Little Town Called Love by Jill Hannah Anderson is the sequel to her amazing first book The Hell-and-Back Club. If you have not read that book it is a must read!! This book I feel though could be read as a stand alone rather than in order.

I am very moved and honored to see my Heidilynn’s BookReviews name/service in the Acknowledgements in Jill’s book.  I feel extremely blessed to be reading and reviewing for Jill Hannah Anderson and Pandamoon Publishing.

So many times in this book did my heart go out to Molly!! Her boyfriend leaving her, members of the community harassing her by telling her you don’t belong here, etc.

I loved the friendship that was slowly building up between Jackson and Molly. However, Jackson is cautious because he always jumps into things too fast and Molly just getting over Nick.  However, the chemistry is there.

I loved the small town setting of Love. The characters that would come into Rosie’s shop that now Molly was taking over I loved.

Romancing JT Millionaire Romance by Anastasia Alexander


First, I want to thank Anastasia Alexander for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.

If you are a fan of the Bachelorette or the Bachelor then Anastasia Alexander’s Romancing JT Millionaire Romance is just the book for you. Just an fyi JT is NOT Justin Timberlake as I found out while reading the book. Seriously though I literally felt like I was on the set of a reality show trying to figure out who was going to win his heart! To be a fly on the wall was pretty cool seeing I like those reality shows.  

My heart went out to JT whom was grieving the loss of his wife. Yet, his business partner made him go on the show even though his heart was not ready to move on.

It was  a very interesting book.

The Ex-Wife The Nail Biting Psychological Thriller by Jess Rider



First, I want to thank Jess Ryder, Bookouture, and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

Jess Ryder is now officially one of my favorite new authors!! The Ex-Wife was just the physiological thriller that I was totally craving!!! Jess did an amazing job at sucking you into the story and captivating you the whole way through. Beware once you start this book you wont want to stop reading it until it is done. Trust me you wont want the book to end-it is that good!!!

If you like books that are extremely fast paced drama, infidelity, major car pile up, abduction, lying, changing identity, ex drama, spousal mid life crisis, coma’s, fake deaths, reinventing yourself, not knowing where the story is going to go, then this book is for you.

The book goes from back in time to present day to make the story very interesting.
I started liking the husband Nicky and by the end of the book hated him with a passion!! Once a cheater always a cheater!! My heart went out to Natasha his second wife so many times during this book!!
