Hi, I’m TJ Logan and I write Romantic Suspense anchored by themes of Family, Honor, and Loyalty. My books are filled with action, suspense, danger, and deep enduring love between alpha heroes and their equally strong heroines who are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in service to others.
I grew up with five brothers and our dad was in the Marine Corps and then in sales, so we moved around a lot. Thanks to my nomadic childhood, I’m an extrovert, which is somewhat unusual in the writing community. While most authors would prefer to stay home in their comfy yoga pants or PJs, I love being surrounded by people, whether at a writers’ conference or reader events…which are my absolute favorite, by the way. Nothing gives me greater joy than meeting new readers and hanging out with the amazing humans who already read and enjoy my books.
I compete in International Defensive Pistol Association events. I was also a pivotal part of a team that managed a Top Secret program for one of the world's largest defense companies. All of these things have given me an interesting perspective on life, and I put every bit of that into my writing!
My husband and I have been together since dirt was invented and we still manage to enjoy each other's company. He's my biggest supporter and always sees more in me than I see in myself. I have two sons who've become incredible men, a very special daughter-in-law, a super-smart grandson, and a precocious, strong granddaughter.
When I published my first book five years ago, my hope was to create stories readers would love and characters they would want to be friends with, and that they would regret saying good bye to when the series ends. I’d love for my books to be read and re-read, the way I do with some of my favorites.

Title: DEADLY SECRET
Author: TJ LOGAN
Genre: ROMANTIC SUSPENSE
Publisher: TJL CREATIVE WORKS, LLC
Book Blurb:
He steps into the shadows to pursue a killer…
F.B.I. Special Agent Beckett O’Halleran values Family, Honor, and Loyalty. A botched undercover assignment results in the brutal murder of his partner. When the killer is set free by a Deputy Director on the take, Beck walks away from the Bureau. He vows to stop at nothing to avenge his partner’s death, including using an innocent woman.
She is dragged into the shadows by her mother’s past …
A deadly secret from the past threatens Gwendolyn Tamberley’s life. Thrust into the crosshairs of a merciless psychopath who will destroy anyone who threatens his empire, she becomes the center of a firestorm between the Russian mafia, the F.B.I. and a former agent hell-bent on retribution.
Will deadly secrets destroy them?
Gwen’s only hope is the man who’s been deceiving her. And Beck must choose between his obsession with vengeance and the woman who’s come to mean everything to him.
Excerpt:
In a dark room on the thirteenth floor of a nondescript federal building, FBI Special Agent Beckett O’Halleran stared into the soulless eyes of a monster. Nikolai Radoslav couldn’t see through the two-way mirror, but he would know Beck was there.
Thanks to a complaint from Radoslav’s attorney—some bullshit about “disrespectful treatment of his client by members of the task force—Beck was stuck observing while his commander got to sit face to face with a psychopath. After what the sick son of a bitch did, he was lucky to be alive.
Black eyes peered out from beneath the Russian mob boss’s thick, bushy white brows. A conspicuous road map of very fine, red veins spread across his bulbous nose, an unsightly side effect of a life spent dumping rotgut vodka into his system. Too bad it hadn’t killed him. He dipped his shoulder sideways for his attorney to whisper in his ear. He threw back his head, and his fat neck bobbled with laughter. His attention returned to the mirror, and a slow smile slithered across his bloated face.
The douchebag’s defense attorney dug into his expensive, hand-stitched briefcase and pulled out a tin of mints then offered one to his client.
Beck’s hands fisted at his sides, and he ground his molars until his jaw hurt.
Something was wrong with this picture. Radoslav was staring down the barrel of being charged with the murder of a federal agent. A capital offense, punishable by death. Yet, here they were, relaxed and shooting the shit like they were hanging out at a bar.

Title: DEADLY JUDGMENT
Author: TJ LOGAN
Genre: ROMANTIC SUSPENSE
Publisher: TJL CREATIVE WORKS, LLC
Book Blurb:
A demented killer with a twisted obsession …
Two young women are kidnapped, their bodies discovered months later after being buried alive. The only clues left behind—their handwritten Last Will and Testaments. Has an evil psychopath from the past returned to pick up where he left off? Or is there an even more deadly copycat?
An intelligent, strong-willed woman with something to prove…
Emily O’Halleran will let nothing and no one stand in the way of finding the person responsible for killing her childhood friend. Not her five over-protective brothers, and certainly not the man who rejected her, the man she can’t get out of her head … or heart.
A warrior who’s willing to fight dirty to protect her…
Mason Croft may not be able to stop his best friend’s sister from investigating, but he can certainly watch over her. No great hardship, since he’s crazy about the tenacious, tenderhearted woman. Too bad he can’t tell her how he feels without losing the only family he’s ever had. Will Emily and Mason find the killer before he has a chance to claim his next victim? Emily’s life could depend on it.
Excerpt:
The young woman fanned her trembling fingers across her belly, her nails jagged and ripped apart, dried blood caked on her hands. The butterfly-like flutters of life she’d begun to feel had stopped the day the man tossed her in this box and buried them alive. She couldn’t even cry over her loss—the monster had robbed her of tears when he stopped giving her food and water. They just wouldn’t come. Instead, she hummed a soft, now useless lullaby into the oppressive, never-ending darkness.
The monster—that’s what she’d started calling him, but only in her head. Never out loud.
It felt like it had been years since he’d grabbed her, shoved her into a utility van, then jabbed a needle in her arm. When she woke up, she had a horrible case of cotton-mouth, a ferocious headache, and one of her wrists was chained to a ring screwed into the concrete wall of some old basement. What she wouldn’t give to be back there now.
Her screams for help in the dank cellar had gone unanswered until nothing remained of her voice but a croaking, harsh whisper. All she’d gotten for her efforts to free herself from the sharp metal cuff was a torn and bloody wrist.

Title: DEADLY REDEEMER
Author: TJ LOGAN
Genre: ROMANTIC SUSPENSE
Publisher: TJL CREATIVE WORKS, LLC
Book Blurb
A compassionate woman who witnessed her mother’s murder…
Dulce Houldcroft was six years old when she lost everything—her mother and father, the only home she’d ever known, and the sense of safety and security every child deserves. Years later, dangers from the past come for her and she finds out that everything she believed was a lie.
A solitary man who is driven by the need to make up for past mistakes…
Cole Lambert’s vengeance for what happened to his sister fuels his mission to destroy human traffickers. Years ago, he willingly traded his soul for a dark and bloody past littered with violence and death. Not once has he regretted his choice. Until meeting Dulce.
Caught between two dangerous cartels, she is targeted for elimination…
Cole learns of the threats to Dulce, and the killer inside of him—the one lurking just beneath the surface—goes scorched earth on everyone involved. But once he knows she’s safe, he’ll move on, leaving behind the only woman he’s ever loved.
Can Dulce convince Cole he is deserving of love and redemption? Or will he break her heart and leave before he learns about the secret she carries inside?
Excerpt:
There was a crash and Dulce snatched her hand from the knob and stepped back. Her heart raced and the cluster of keychains clipped to her backpack jingled and rattled as she ran down the steps and around to the back. She caught her breath and looked around for something to stand on so she could see better.
Her mom’s gardening cart had wheels so she maneuvered it beneath the window and climbed up onto it. Standing on her very tippy, tippy toes, she was just barely able to look through the kitchen window, but couldn’t see anything. She jumped down and set her backpack on the grass, then took the three steps up to the kitchen door. Slowly, she swung it open and left it that way.
Something in the crockpot smelled yummy and made her mouth water and her tummy growl. Dulce ignored it and crept across the new tile floor her papi had installed right before her birthday. She ducked behind the cabinet, tilted sideways for a tiny peek into the front room, and her mouth dropped open at what she saw.
Her mami’s neat and tidy house had been wrecked. White fluffy stuff stuck out of the couch cushions, the coffee table was tipped over, and all of Dulce’s books were dumped off the shelf. The front of the big TV—the glass part—was cracked into a gazillion pieces. Seeing her mami’s collection of angels smashed and crunched into the carpet made her sad. They both loved looking at them and making up stories about them.
Her mami was on the floor and her face was bleeding right by her eye and her mouth.

Title: DANGEROUS OBSESSION
Author: TJ LOGAN
Genre: ROMANTIC SUSPENSE
Publisher: TJL CREATIVE WORKS, LLC
Book Blurb:
An abused woman who is determined to reclaim her independence…
Independence is Marigold Hartnett's ultimate goal, but trust is a luxury she can't afford. A lesson she learned the hard way, leaving her with the physical and emotional scars to prove it. Yet, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to a man with deadly skills who is determined to protect her—whether she wants him to or not.
A deadly, controlled man with the patience to wait for her…
Golden "Viking" Bailey is a deadly sniper and a highly skilled covert operator. Sparks fly when he meets Marigold, a sassy young woman with a dark secret who insists on keeping him at arm's length. But his heart is all in and no amount of snark or name-calling will chase him off.
A dangerous obsession closes in...
Viking is a patient man, a warrior who never loses his cool. When Marigold becomes the target of someone's sick and twisted obsession, he vows to do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Even if it means unleashing the trained killer inside of him.
Excerpt:
Breath stuck in her throat, muscles rigid, Marigold Hartnett pressed her back tight against the wall. Her heart hammered in her chest, her neck, her ears. The towel bar dug into her shoulder blades, but her eyes remained fixed on the bathroom door.
Heavy footsteps vibrated down the hall, came to a stop, and a pair of large feet blocked most of the light spilling under the door. The flimsy, chrome doorknob jiggled.
“Unlock the door!” Her boyfriend, Cliff Barnum, shouted. The hollow door shuddered under the assault of his powerful fists.
She jumped and sucked in a breath. Her insides clenched as if held tight in one of his large hands.
“You don’t actually think this door will keep me outta there, do you?” He continued pounding. "Open the door!”
Marigold’s arm flew up to grip the towel bar. Could she pull it loose? Even if she could, the flimsy plastic tube would never be enough to stop someone his size. It would only anger him further. Her gaze scanned the small space for anything she could use to defend herself. There was nothing.
