About the Author
I've been writing since I was a teenager. Currently, I am exploring many genres. I love stepping outside my comfort zone to create stories. I started writing short romance and erotica, to ghost stories and murder mysteries. I have contributed short stories to several anthologies with other authors. As I learn from other talented writers from social media groups, my writing is continually improving.
I'm ecstatic to see what the future holds for me as a writer. To me, writing is my freedom. A world of fantasy and daydreams. I will continue writing as long as my letters weave into words, which thread into sentences, and become paragraphs, lingering into chapters..and so on. It's a playful magical journey that my mind is living in. Sometimes I'm Lorri, sometimes I'm Charlotte, sometimes I'm playful Sarah... whoever I feel like I am, come join me on my journey of exploration.

About the author
Welcome! My name is C.A. Keith, Charlotte.
I grew up in the wine district of Niagara, not far from the magnificent Niagara Falls, Canada. I am a mother of two young men, Mel is 29; a deaf chef and business owner, and Tyler is 24. I moved to the gulf coast of Florida last year and not regretted that decision at all.
I have been writing poetry and short stories since I was a teenager. I’m presently exploring different genres and writing styles. My favourite place to write was at the Gulf coast of Florida where I used to sneak away often, then decided to move here.
In my books, browse through some of the anthologies that I have contributed short stories to. Some are fundraisers. One for raising awareness for the LGBTQ community, the other to save the Rhino population from poachers.
My short story novelette “Trouble at Tarpon Springs” “Crystal River” and “A Naïve Princess” are now available. Look for more exciting books available by Electric Eclectic books. (EE Books).
My latest children’s book “The Secret Door of Bluebell Meadow,” is a great all ages bedtime story.
My book “Way Beyond Innocence” and it’s sequel “A Daydream in Paradise” will be coming soon. They are a collection of romantic short stories.

Keith sets the tone from the very first page of the tale. Using language that fits well with the “criminal” slant of the story, Keith draws the reader in. Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys? It doesn’t take long to identify Joey Christopoulus as a thug. He may be a boss thug, but he is a thug none the less. Having inherited the family fishery business, he has turned a respected business into a front for drug and stolen goods smuggling. Joey has one weakness, and her name is Amy.
Amy is a singer at a local venue, and she is far from respectable. She uses her body to seduce men and rob them or use them for financial gains. Amy has met her match in Joey. He has his gang keeping eyes on her at all times. He doesn’t trust the sultry songstress, and he has definite plans for their future together. However, it appears plans may have hit a snag with the arrival of a wealthy Italian jeweler, Antonio Maducci.
The story that follows is sometimes confusing. Occasionally the characters seem to slip out of their roles and shift suddenly to caring individuals. The attraction between Amy and Antonio is an example of this. Her response to the swarthy stud seems out of character.
The premise of the story is good, and the crime is well thought out. There are bumps in the road which stretch believability, but it is fiction. In spite of some inconsistencies, the story is compelling. There are some grammatical and structural issues throughout the book. With an additional edit and some slight restructuring, this could be a 5-star novelette. It is still worth a read if you enjoy gangster crime.
