No
Second Chance
“…an
enjoyable story with a likable couple and intriguing situations.”
— Sandra
Garcia-Myers, ROMANTIC TIMES
“…NO SECOND CHANCE is a fabulous contemporary romance with
an intriguing social issue involving the rescue of horses; in fact the
book proceeds are being donated to the real Day’s End Farm Horse
[sic] rescuing mission. The story line is fast-paced from the onset and
never slows down until the final confrontation…” —
Harriet Klausner, reviewer
“…NO SECOND CHANCE has equal parts of suspense and romance
with no indication who the thief could be (Ray seems a little too obvious).
Devlin and Hope are both likeable characters, and the story moves along
at a good pace. It is a tale that will please most contemporary romance
readers.” — Marilyn Heyman,

“Five Stars! NO SECOND CHANCE by Maggie Toussaint is a suspense
driven ride through the urban Baltimore boardroom and the pastures of
rural Maryland. As Hope and Devlin race to discover the unknown villain
attempting to ruin both their businesses, sparks of the very best kind
fly between them. I loved the unique backdrop of Second Chance Farm, a
rehab. farm for old or injured horses. A great read!” –

enjoyed it. It's been sitting on my bookshelf for a month but once I got

contains secretive pleasures” –
Darlene Gardner, Harlequin SuperRomance author
“I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was choc full of excitement
and intrigue and the plot was very well written. I felt like I was pulled
into the world the author created. I especially enjoyed the amazing amount
of detail that was put into the character development. From the occupations
of the main characters, to their favorite hobbies and everything in between,
I loved the subtle and very accurate description of the characters' emotions
and thought processes. The information didn't seem overwhelming. It was
concise, but so true to the characters and the situations they were in.
I was highly impressed by this. I would definitely give this book as a
gift. This genre isn't usually one of my favorites, but I enjoyed this
book very much. I was engrossed in the characters and loved how strong
the heroine was. I would highly recommend it to anyone”

“House of Lies by Maggie Toussaint
is an exciting romantic suspense. Poignantly written, it touches on the
emotional aspects of parental abandonment and the courage necessary to
face the truth. The romance between Hannah and Jake is exceptionally well-developed
and Hannah’s mother, Libby, is a sensitive character who added much
to the story. I truly loved House of Lies and look forward to reading
more novels this highly talented new author” -Linda
Morelli, author and reviewer at http://www.lindamorelli.us
“Five stars! A wonderful read
from the first page through to the last! Wonderful characters and a stunning
plot make this a keeper that just couldn't be put down until I reached
the last page and even then I wanted more. Maggie Toussaint is clearly
a rising talent and I'll certainly be first in line for her future works”
- Ellen Dye of Bloomery, WV, posted on www.thewildrosepress.com
“Five stars. House of Lies grabbed
me from the start when it thrusts together the two main characters after
the death of the female's father. The interest between them kept the same
pace throughout, while also exploring the all-too-common curiosity of
a person who grew up feeling distant from a parent. The author has done
a great job of interweaving romance, suspense, and this same empathy for
the main character. Keeps you guessing up until the very end when the
final "secret" is revealed” – Sheila

KIRKUS REVIEWS
“Maggie Toussaint's IN FOR A PENNY sparkles with wit and humor.
Toussaint has created a small town filled with wacky characters and a
sleuth--Cleo Jones--we can all relate to. She's funny, she's impulsive,
and she's finding that there really is life after divorce. That life includes
her children, a mother who puts fish in lasagne, a gorgeous golf pro,
two frisky Saint Bernards, and, of course, murder. Anyone looking for
a really fun read will find it in IN FOR A PENNY” –
Judy Fitzwater, author
of THE JENNIFER MARSH MYSTERIES and NO SAFE PLACE
“Even
a philandering husband can't stop Cleopatra Jones, Maggie Toussaint's
delightful new sleuth. But when she whacks her golf ball smack dab atop
a dead body on the sixth green of the local club, it does make her pause
-- just a tad. She hasn't time to dwell on it, however. The police arrest
her best friend, her ex-husband seems to be involved up to his devious
eyebrows, and Cleo's downright angry that her world has been turned upside
down by him -- again. So she revs into full damn-the-torpedos mode until
she peels away layers of subterfuge from the seemingly placid suburbs
and cracks a case that baffles the local police. What a terrifically engrossing,
rib-tickling debut from a talented new author. Don't miss it! ”
– Barbara
Cummings, award winning author of A KILLING ON CHURCH GROUNDS
