Newly widowed Francesca Canelli is not your typical soccer mom but she'd do anything to help her teenage son Matt honor his dad's memory. Cash-strapped and still grieving, Francesca accepts a sexual proposition from the coach of Pegasi United who promises to secure Matt a starting position on his premier St. Louis team. Their bargain quickly sours when Coach Rex demeans Matt, abuses Francesca, and threatens to renege on the deal.
The coach with more enemies than friends soon winds up dead and the ensuing investigation establishes Francesca as the prime murder suspect. Now she's playing games with a team of hard-nosed detectives, her vulnerability fading as she fights to keep not only herself out of jail but Matt too. Then Francesca discovers she's not the only person who knows what happened that night Rex died. She strikes a new bargain but will this one resolve her growing problems?
Loretta's novels are filled with bawdy characters caught up in problems they must take responsibility for having created. In LETHAL PLAY a grieving widow must convince a team of hard-nosed detectives that she didn't kill her coach's son, a man with more enemies than friends. FAMILY DECEPTIONS follows two generations of earthy Italians and Italian/Americans who learn to survive and thrive through a series of misdeeds, the worst against those they love the most. In FREE DANNER a cynical young man's troubled past and deadly encounters hinder his search for the father he has yet to meet. THE FAMILY ANGEL is a paranormal saga about the Americanization of an immigrant family of bootleggers, coalminers, winemakers and priests, and a mysterious black angel who enjoys sticking his nose in the family business. CHICAGO'S HEADMISTRESS, a prequel and partial parallel to THE FAMILY ANGEL follows a 1905 Italian street urchin's notorious rise to wealth and power as the headmistress of Night School, Prohibition Chicago's most popular and innovative men's club in the 1920s.
In addition to several horror anthologies Loretta's short fiction has appeared in numerous publications including The MacGuffin, Futures Mystery Anthology Magazine, The Scruffy Dog Review, Allegory, and Literary Mama, which nominated her story "Tom" for Dzanc's 2010 Best of The Web.
