Please welcome Laura K. Curtis, author of Echoes.
Laura K. Curtis does everything backwards. As a child, she was extremely
serious, so now that she’s chronologically an adult, she feels perfectly
justified in acting the fool. She started teaching at age fifteen, then decided
to go back to school herself at thirty.
Laura has taught middle school social studies, high school literature, and college-level rhetoric, all with relative success. She’s also a full-on Mac geek who spent years as a consultant and running an academic computing lab. The only thing she completely failed at in the field of education was attempting to teach obedience to her pack of Irish Terriers. Currently, she lives in Westchester, NY, with her husband and two insane Irish Terriers who have taught her how easily love can coincide with the desire to kill.

Would You Rather with Laura K.Curtis
Chips, chocolate or cheese?
Cheese! (I love chips and chocolate, too, but cheese, ah, it’s a lifetime obsession.)

Vodka.

Spa, baby!

Tea. Preferably iced.
Dine out or take away?
Dine out. My husband’s a takeaway kind of guy, which sometimes causes problems. I don’t want to eat fancy food, but I want to eat it there.

Fluevogs!
Physical Book or ebook?
Physical for non-fiction, e for fiction.

Pants, definitely. I got 2/3 of the way through my first book, Twisted, and then killed off the guy I was sure was the murderer. Ooops. Luckily, there were other candidates for the job.
Echoes
A single photo of herself as an infant on a beach, taken before the date on her birth certificate, throws everything Calliope Pearson knows about herself into question. Hoping to find answers, she takes advantage of her job as a travel writer to make a reservation at the Caribbean island resort in the picture.
Resort security chief Mac Brody distrusts Callie on sight. After all, she looks exactly like his deceitful missing wife, Nikki, who owns half the resort. But when Nikki’s found dead, Mac's facing murder charges, and he’s sure that Callie must hold the key to proving his innocence.
The deeper Callie and Mac dive into the mystery of her past, the more bodies surface. And they’ll have to learn to trust each other, or become victims of a dark danger neither could've imagined…
