'Scuse Me While I Kill This Guy - book #1
YOU CAN'T PICK YOUR FAMILY...
Death by Chocolate is her favorite dessert. And those knitting needles aren't just for craft
projects. To most people, Gin Bombay is an ordinary single mom. Then again,
they don't know she's from a family of top secret assassins. Somewhere between
leading a Girl Scout troop for her kindergartner--would nooses count for a knot
badge?--and keeping their puppy from destroying the furniture, Gin now has to take
out a new target.
BUT YOU CAN PICK THEM OFF.
Except this target has an incredibly hot Australian bodyguard who knows just how to make her weak in the knees. But with a traitor threatening to expose everything, Gin doesn't have much time indulge her hormones. She's got to find the leak and clear her assignment...or she'll
end up next on the Bombay family hit list.
Guns Will Keep Us Together - book #2
Dakota Bombay prides himself on his Bond-like image---bad-guy killer by
day, lady-killer by night. But his life gets both shaken and stirred by an
irate grandmother demanding a marketing plan for the family assassination
business, a precocious six-year-old son he never knew he had, and a mysterious
redheaded funeral director who's got him intrigued in more ways than one.
Suddenly the perennial playboy is knee deep in pie charts and play-dates, while
juggling the demands of the not-so-family-friendly family business. Throw in a
team of rival assassins, and Dak's dreams of living trigger-happily ever after
just may be put on ice.
Stand By Your Hitman - book #3
Missi Bombay invents things--fatal flowers, Jell-O bullets, stroke-inducing panty hose and other ways to kill a target without leaving any trace behind. Living a solitary life on her family's island, she's a great asset to her family of assassins. Unfortunately, the family that kills together also meddles together, and when Missi's mom decides her daughter's life is a little too solitary, she packs Missi off the Costa Rica for an undercover assignment on a low-budget Survival reality TV show. Amidst the ridiculous challenges, tribal voting, and late-night sneaking to the nearby resort, Missi finds herself not only scoping out her family's latest target, but also Lex Danby, the hottest contestant on the island. But Missi's hormones get put on the back burner when someone starts sabotaging the show...and Missi is squarely in the sights of the deadly culprit.
I Shot You Babe - book #4
Coney Bombay isn't your average PhD. While he may be well versed in philosophy, he's also one of the most lethal members of the Bombay Family of assassins. Choosing to travel the world operating carnival rides and spending quite evenings knitting with his pet guinea pig, even in his crazy family, Cy stands out as wild card. But after a series of run-ins with perennial grad student, Veronica Gale, the cool cat is starting to feel a little hot under the collar.
In her research, Ronnie Gale has seen a lot. Problem is, she hasn't actually done a lot. The mysterious Cy Bombay seems about to change all of that when a whirlwind adventure takes them from the small-town country fair to the outer reaches of Mongolia, and into a murder mystery with Cy squarely in the center.
Ronnie's going to have to climb out of her ivory tower and get a little down and dirty if she wants to survive Cy Bombay's wild ride.

Review
"The beleaguered soccer mom assassin concept is a winner, and Langtry gets the fun started from page one with a myriad of clever details."
