    About this ebook

    Tim Reardon made a real mess of his life. After five years in a federal penitentiary, he’s given one last second chance: to work on a ranch in a small town where he can start over. Learning to care for a sick horse brings him together with veterinarian Janie Thomas.

    Unaware that his old boss is intent on bringing him back into the fold, Tim thinks his drug running days are behind him for good—until the night he comes face to face with his past. Given the ultimatum to come back to Denver or die, he and Janie find themselves in the crosshairs of a deadly enemy.

    “Impeccably edited, Cramer’s prose is evocative and easy to read. Every character is realistic and well-drawn, the main characters are especially compelling and you can't help but love them, warts and all. Five stars, without question.” Cy Wyss, author of The Bloodless Mask and Polygraph (Inspector Lukas Richter #1)

    Last Second Chance is the second Thomas Family Novel, a series of standalone novels featuring characters connected to the Thomas Family of Syracuse, Kansas. (Previously released as part of "The Boys of Syracuse, Kansas" series - there have been no substantial changes to the story.)

    Kristi Cramer

    When Kristi isn’t riding her Harley or working her day job, you can find her in front of her computer, hammering out exciting suspense stories, or chatting around on social media.Although she has honed her writing craft for 30+ years, she only published her first book in 2012. Her strange and varied work history - having held jobs from a hotel housekeeper, a car wash attendant, an insurance underwriter, an electronics assembly line worker, a date entry tech in auto parts warehouse, a blueberry nursery shipping coordinator, a local delivery driver, and a truck driver and owner of her own trucking company - gives her a broad base from which to build her characters and storylines. Now a billing specialist for The Arc of Lane County, she supports those who care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities while she pursues her writing career in earnest.She got married for the first time at 38, skipped being a mommy and went straight to Grandma. She fully intends to go to her grave having never changed a diaper.Kristi's books are all affordably priced. In the time since self-publishing her first novel in 2012, Kristi has learned that working at selling her writing is a great way to kill the joy she has in the process of writing, so she has returned to the idea of writing for the joy of it. She still puts her heart and soul into producing the best possible product, trying only to make it easy for readers to enjoy her work for the least expense. She doesn't promise perfection but works hard to ensure the quality results in a low-to-distraction-free reading experience.In April of 2023 she cut eBook prices as low as possible, making them free wherever she could. (Amazon doesn't make it easy to provide free eBooks, so all eBooks there are priced at 99¢.) You can find them free on other platforms - see website (below) for details. Paperbacks are priced as low as Amazon allows, or you can purchase directly from the website at cost.What's the catch? We don't require anything of readers. If you are moved to do so, please feel free to leave a review. If you can afford it, you can donate to the cause of helping Kristi's bottom line. As of April 2023, money for professional covers will come solely from donations and royalties, or from bartering. See website for details on how to donate.
