Synopsis
This is an intense page-turner, a gut-punch twist-filled story about a woman who has
confidence in herself, believes she’s a good judge of character, and has filled
her life with people she can trust. She’s right, but she’s also very, very
wrong. Readers will have a time of it trying to decide who to watch closest.Hard Focus

Where do you place your trust when your own instincts betray you?
Connie Rowe is a receptionist at a respected legal firm. She’s a little bit
sassy, a lotta bit happy, has good friends, and is adored by her neighbors.
Life is good.
She’s got a boyfriend she enjoys spending time with. He can be a little
intense, but he’s got a lot going on in his own life, sorting out his young
daughter and nightmare of an ex.
Life is grand.
“Trust your gut.” That’s what Connie’s police officer father told her often,
training his daughter to believe in herself through the years.
But … what happens when you can’t? When your intuition lies?
What happens when things come into Hard Focus?

Lita T’s Review: 5 STARS
Hard Focus by MariaLisa deMora is a book I did not expect. I have read the author’s Rebel Wayfarer series which I love. This book was a far departure. I was hooked from the very beginning to the very end. Connie is a young lady loving her life. She has a good job, a lovely apartment, good friends and a boyfriend Jonas who is alright but she doesn’t see their relationship resulting in a marriage. Connie spends every other weekend with him and his daughter. As time goes on she feels there is something not right with him. Something about Jonas is off. When he picks up his daughter he is not the typical loving father. This is a story of lies, deception, secrets and misunderstanding. As the story unfolds we learn more about Connie and Jonas. There was so much to this story with all its twists and turns. I didn’t know what to expect and what I got blew my mind. A journey I enjoyed. A must read. 5 stars for me. A would love a story about Jonas. Something about sick, dark and twisted.

Author Bio
Raised in the south, MariaLisa learned about the magic of books at an
early age. Every summer, she would spend hours in the local library,
devouring books of every genre. Self-described as a book-a-holic, she
says “I’ve always loved to read, but then I discovered writing, and
found I adored that, too. For reading … if nothing else is available,
I’ve been known to read the back of the cereal box.”

Music is a driving passion, and she says, “I love music of nearly any
genre — jazz, country, rock, alt rock, metal, classical, bluegrass, rap,
hip hop … you name it, I listen to it. I can often be seen dancing
through the house in the early mornings. But I really, REALLY love live
music. My favorite thing with music is seeing bands in small, dive bars
[read: small, intimate venues]. If said bar [venue] has a good selection
of premium tequila, then that’s a plus!”
