Tina Wainscott (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 26, 2007

THE PAST WON'T LET HER BE.
When Maggie Fletcher's sister is murdered, presumably by stalker Colin Masters, Maggie is left devastated--and furious. There isn't enough evidence to prove that Masters did it--unless Maggie falsely claims, under oath, that she saw him leaving the scene of the crime…
 
THE TRUTH WON'T SET HER FREE.
Maggie's testimony puts Masters behind bars--but also wrecks Maggie's life. When she and her teenage son move to a small New Hampshire town to start a new life, Maggie can't help but feel that she's being shadowed.
 
NOW THERE'S NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE….
Someone is slowly, stealthily invading every part of Maggie's world, turning everything and everyone against her. Now Maggie fears that a faceless, merciless pursuer wants to make her pay for her lie--with her life.

More About the Author

WHERE AM I? I'm now writing under the name Jaime Rush for Avon Books. Check out my new series, where X-Files meets Lost! Why did I change? I changed publishers and went back to my paranormal romance roots, and it was a business decision to start fresh. If you like my earlier paranormal books, you'll like the Offspring series. Lots of suspense, action, the kind of damaged characters I love to write about, and sexiness. You can read sneak peeks at www.jaimerush.com.

If you'd like to buy one of my books, and have it signed, please email me through the Jaime site. My manager has a limited amount of Tina Wainscott books on hand. For ebook users, I am releasing my Tina titles on the Kindle under both Tina Wainscott and Jaime Rush. Out so far:
Unforgivable
What She Doesn't Know
Blindsight (formerly Now You See Me)
Until I Die Again (formerly On the Way to Heaven)

Tina's Bio: I read suspense thrillers because I like to be scared, and I write suspense thrillers because I like to scare people. Not-entrails-on-the-floor or hacked-up-body-parts-wrapped-prettily-in-a-package type books. More like not being able to trust anyone, not even people you think you can trust type books. Books about psychological manipulation and psychotic baddies who enjoy the torment even more than the actual kill. Being scared is fun. Just ask any roller coaster or horror flick fanatic. Heck, just watching the evening news can be terrifying.

Pick up one of my books, though, and I'll guarantee you one thing: in my world, the bad guy always gets his in the end. Or the head. Or wherever it turns out to be. We don't always get the luxury of justice in real life, but every time I write a book, I get justice for all those people who couldn't. And I get to meet interesting people who I then put through hell, all in the name of entertainment. That is what I call a sweet way to make a living.

My beliefs are God, a positive attitude, living life to the fullest, doing unselfish things on a regular basis, small indulgences, believing in yourself, appreciating what you have, and no regrets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scary and creepy, July 28, 2007

This review is from: Until the Day You Die (Mass Market Paperback)

I had not read any books by Tina Wainscott. I grabbed this just from the back cover writing. It was scary and creepy. I tried to read it at night but had to stop because I was getting the creeps.

Maggie's sister is being stalked. No one believes it and Maggie isnt sure she does either. When her sister is brutally attacked....she becomes a believer. Maggie gets involved...too involved and the stalker begin to bite away slowly at Maggies life. First her mother, her job, her friends and finally her son.

I dont want to spoil any surprises but if you are a single women living alone...read it in the day time!

5.0 out of 5 stars a style that Alfred Hitchcock would approve of, September 12, 2007

This review is from: Until the Day You Die (Mass Market Paperback)

Maggie believes she had a normal life. Her relationship with County Attorney, Marcus Antonelli was made even better as he understood and had a good relationship with her son, Lucas. Then her sister Dana confides to Maggie that she is being stalked and fears for her life. After brutal physical and emotional assaults, Dana's misery ends. When her case came to trial and it appeared Colin will escape justice, Maggie 'stretched the truth' and positively identifies Colin as the man she saw leaving her sister's home. But as the saying goes, lies come back to haunt.

Dana wasn't the first 'pet' Colin Masters had stalked and she wouldn't be the last as he was proud of his skills. But first, Dana's sister Maggie must pay for interfering. Having Aidan nearby for protection would not save her.

I hesitated on reading the story as the blurb expressed such a dark plot. By chapter 3 I was pulled into the story trusting that Ms Wainscott would not leave me crying in the end. Using a predictable criminal profile with some unexpected plot twists, this story continues to intrigue until the end. Wringing a wide range of emotions viewing various relationships from Maggie's perspective, the author pulls it all together in the end, showing the true meaning of ROMANTIC suspense. In a style that Alfred Hitchcock would approve, this psychological thriller introduces believable characters in horrific circumstances and still concludes with positive elements of justice and Happily-Ever-After.

Excellent book, suspenseful, a definite page turner. This book is among the many well written books by Tina Wainscott. I have read several books by her, and absolutely loved each one. Tina Wainscott has become one of my favorite authors. I cannot get enough of her books. Her stories are filled with mystery, and the twists and turns keep you guessing. Highly recommend "Until The Day You Die," and all of her other books. Received in perfect condition, and quick and easy transaction.
