Author Description

IT'S ALL IN THE TITLE combines mystery, romance, and humorous anecdotes about running a major league baseball team. The major character, Carolyn Charlotte Cleveland, or CC, is the president of a fictional team, the Indianapolis Knights. She inherits an English title and an enormous amount of money from her father, an English earl whom she never met. When she travels to England to reject the title, she unexpectedly becomes embroiled in a mystery: Who was her father? How had he become so incredibly rich, and, most importantly, how did he die and at whose hand? Determined to find out about the man who chose to keep his own title rather than marry her mother, she searches for clues in the Cotswolds, London, and eventually at her father's hunting lodge in the Highlands of Scotland where she meets Charles Timperley, a Scottish lord. Charlie, CC's mother, Mary, and her enigmatic stepfather, Flash MacTandy, are drawn in and face danger as they strive to solve the mystery. Once her questions are answered, CC must make a difficult and life-altering decision. Will she accept her father's title and become Countess of Litchfield, or will she choose to retain her present title, President of the Knights?
