Paw Enforcement

by Diane Kelly

Published 3 June 2014

Officer Megan Luz is lucky she still has a job after tasering a male colleague where it counts the most. Sure, he had it coming to him-which is why the police chief is giving Megan a second chance. The catch? Her new partner can't carry a gun, can't drive a cruiser, and can't recite the Miranda Rights. Because her new partner is a big, black, furry police dog. So that's what the chief meant when he called Megan's partner a real b*tch...With Brigit out on the beat, Megan is writing up enough tickets to wallpaper the whole station. But when a bomb goes off at the mall's food court, it's up to Megan and Brigit to start digging-and sniffing-for clues. With the help of dead-sexy bomb-squad expert Seth Rutledge and his own canine partner named Blast, Megan finds herself in a desperate race to collar a killer. Will justice be served - or will she end up in the doghouse?

Paw and Order

by Diane Kelly

Published 30 December 2014

Fort Worth Police Officer Megan Luz and her K-9 partner Brigit are back on the beat, patrolling the historic Stockyards district as the annual Stock Show and Rodeo get underway. A clever purse snatcher and pickpocket is preying on tourists in town for the event. Given the negative publicity caused by the rash of robberies, the police chief, county sheriff, and mayor pressure officers to nab the thief ASAP. A mounted deputy has set his sights on Megan, but she can't decide whether to say yay or "neigh" to his advances. Complicating things are her conflicting feelings about bomb squad officer Seth Rutledge, who recently risked his own life to save hers. When the mugger's actions turn deadly, it's up to Megan and Brigit to sniff out the perpetrator and see that justice is served.

Bending the Paw

by Diane Kelly

Published 27 October 2020

The line between civil law and criminal law can be thin, but when someone bends the law too far, they break it. And if there’s one thing Police Officer Megan Luz and her K-9 sidekick Brigit don’t like, it’s lawbreakers.

A modern day Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre appears to have taken place when the K-9 team is summoned to the scene of what can only be described as a bloodbath, with one peculiar thing missing: the body. With no body, no witnesses, and no concrete clues, it appears the perpetrators committed the perfect crime.

Meanwhile, after a powerful spring storm bombards Fort Worth with hail, roofing contractors descend on the city. Is the owner of Trinity River Roofing Company merely behind in his work, or is he a scammer taking advantage of desperate homeowners?

One thing Megan knows for certain: she and Brigit are nothing if not determined to sniff out the lawbreakers.
