Thanks to the support of my wonderful readers, I am delighted to announce that I was able to donate $4,000 to Frankie’s Friends Cat Rescue in Pittsburgh. For the first two weeks after the release of Second to None, the kickoff novella for my new Second Glances series, every book sold meant 50 cents donated to the charity. So you guys should give yourselves a big pat on the back!

Frankie’s Friends offers low-cost veterinary services to both cats and dogs. My daughter the vet student has worked at the clinic over several years, so I know what amazing work they do there…on a shoe-string budget!

Here are some of the cute kitties whom your purchase of Second To None are helping:

Kemosabe has a food allergy that makes him itchy, so he has to wear a T-shirt. But he loves making a fashion statement.

 

Boyfriend has a cleft palate so he’s a permanent resident at Frankie’s Friends.

 

 

This handsome fellow is Carlos. Frankie’s Friends saved him from being euthanized by the people who brought him in who claimed he was mean. Turns out he’s the sweetest cat ever.

 

Here’s Paige holding an adorable little kitten who’s up for adoption.

 

Thank you so much for supporting Second to None and Frankie’s Friends!
