To Live and Love Again

She stared down the barrel of her first husband’s shotgun. She bore the pain and uncertainty of her second husband’s affair. For Sue Andrews, love was always a dangerous game, physically and emotionally taxing—and destined to end in heartbreak.

But when a friend compared her plight to the book When Bad Things Happen to Good People, Andrews became determined: she would stop being a victim and take control of her life once and for all.

Author's inspiration in writing this book

After forty years in education primarily teaching Deaf Children, I told everyone at my retirement party I was going to write my memoir. Everyone assumed it would be about education but it wasn’t. Many Californians knew nothing about my life in the South nor my life growing up in the MidWest. I wanted people, especially women, to know the experiences I had being married to an abuser and how I got out of that relationship and what else I had gone through that made me a survivor. Especially, how my faith had gotten me through so many other circumstances. I also wanted to give women the strength that I had from reading my book.

What Readers Are Saying

“A Killing in the Keys” is a very intriguing read for the mystery lover! Enjoyed that the story takes place in Key West and Miami in 2017 and all of the references to well known Key West locations! The characters are very nicely developed and the title of the book is well chosen. Loved the vocabulary! I could not figure out the killer. Great second novel and there could be another novel for the protagonist, Wade Nevlin! Loved his romantic interest, Melina! Highly recommended!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this murder mystery. The plot develops with many interesting characters, several who were suspects in the murder. The romantic interest between Wade and Melina was intriguing and developed slowly. The conclusion with the arrest and conviction of the murderer was surprising. And the final chapter leaves you smiling! I highly recommend this book!

Once again, Sue Andrews writes a book that’s hard to put down. Rarely do I read a book in one day but ”Jacksonville Judas” is the exception! The characters are thoughtfully introduced, with credible back stories. The plot unfolds carefully, and around each corner more information is provided for the reader to guess whodunit. There is an honest resolution to this detective novel, which in my opinion is the best test of a “good read”. “Jacksonville Judas” is definitely that! Can’t wait for her next book!

If you haven’t been to this part of the country and even if you have, you’ll enjoy visiting the South Coast
with panoramic landscapes, trips to Charleston, Atlanta and even NYC. Prepare to work your way
through a dense crowd of possible murderers. At one time I suspected everybody. Chances are very good
you’ll be surprised at the end.

I am truly amazed at the determination of the human spirit as exemplified by the character in the
book. Sue went through hell many times, both in her relationships with men and her health
issues. She persevered, and was able to achieve her happy ending with her last husband. She so
deserved it.. I read the book in a day because I was simply not able to put it down. I kept
wondering what the next few pages would reveal. Sue not only triumphed, but did so with grace
and could be considered a role model for anyone going through her experiences. She exemplifies
the “never give up” spirit.

We live and live again.

What a wonder story of courage, determination and love.
So refreshing to read of some strangers life and at the end think you have known her forever. A
breath of fresh air.
I can’t imagine anyone who could start this book and ever be able to out it down for a minute.
Excellent.
