Margaret Watson is a two-time RITA finalist and USA Today bestselling author of romantic suspense and general romance fiction novels.
She published her debut novel in the mid-1990s and has never looked back. She was greatly encouraged by her very first novel “An Innocent Man,” the first of the “Into the Storm” series of novels, which became a bestseller soon after it was published.
Watson now has more than thirty fiction novels published by Silhouette and Harlequin, with many of them award-winning romantic suspense novels.
While she is a very successful author, she still works her day job in Chicago where she is a veterinarian.
Ever since she was a little girl, Margaret Watson dreamed of one day writing the novels she loved to read. As a child, she used to read popular novels from the likes of Georgette Heyer, Nancy Drew, Helen MacInnes, and Mary Stewart.
It was from this love of reading that she began making up stories in her head. She has said that she used to put herself to sleep by rewriting the endings and plots of the books that she read.
She assumed that everyone did that and that it was normal until she began getting weird looks about her habits. As a twelve-year-old, she finally figured it out as she made the decision to become an author when she grew up.
But she would get sidetracked by her need for a real job and love for animals and as such ended up a veterinarian. At some point, she began making up stories about the many pets that belonged to her clients.
Margaret Watson has now published millions of copies of her novels but is still thrilled to see her name on the cover of a published novel. She believes herself very lucky that she gets to work in two careers that she absolutely loves.
Margaret Watson currently makes her home in a suburb of Chicago where she lives with her husband, her three daughters, and a large menagerie of pets. When she is not penning her novels, she can be found at her veterinary practice practicing medicine.
She has said that she not only loves treating pets but that her clients often provide some inspirational stories and wonderful characters for her novels. In fact, two of her novels include a composite of veterinarians as heroines.
Back home where she has been married for more than two decades, she is the mother of three daughters who are in college and high school.
When they are all at home during the summer holidays, they love to travel and sometimes vacation and hike in the national parks.
“With One Breath” by Margaret Watson introduces a woman named Laila who is a determined, smart, brave, and resourceful CIA agent.
She is not the type that would ever need rescuing but she often breaks tiny rules which sometimes cause her a lot of problems. She now finds herself in a sticky situation as she has to hide from the Taliban in some very narrow interlocking caves.
Her designated rescuer is a man named Jase who was the last man she had a romantic involvement with, even if she was her training agent at the CIA. He is a strict rule follower, intimidating, bossy, alpha, and the hottest guy she ever met.
The story begins following the tension-filled withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan. Laila has been heading to Kabul intending to leave the country when she is betrayed by her driver.
While she manages to outwit her attackers, she knows that it is only a matter of time before she is tracked down by the Taliban.
She would never have been happier to see Jase but the last thing they are thinking about as they slither and crawl frantically through the caves is romance.
Nonetheless, their infatuation with each other sparks and smolders despite all the dangers they have to deal with.
Margaret Watson’s novel “Once Removed” is the story of Lainey a woman who cannot find her ex-husband so that she can serve him divorce papers.
She knows that he works at a compound as a security guard but when she arrives there, she stumbles upon his dead body. But before she can leave she is assaulted and the building is set ablaze so that she can die in it.
She is lucky that a rancher named Brody is in the area and he rescues her. Since she is the main suspect in the death of her husband, she has no option but to move in with Brody.
When someone tries to break into his house, they are surprised that the police refuse to do anything about it. Trying to clear Lainey’s home, they head to the compound to find clues only to find a tween scavenging for food.
They take in the tween named Phoebe but in the process, they realize that they cannot protect Lainey from the person that is coming after her.
Lainey and Brody are also dealing with their growing feelings for each other despite the fact that they have a lot of reasons for taking things slow.
Lainey had once been physically abused by her husband while Brody’s ex-wife had played some horrific games with him.
“Once Burned” by Margaret Watson is the story of Julia Stewart who lost her brother and her parents in a tragic incident when she was sixteen.
But somehow, she managed to rebuild her life only for freak accidents to begin occurring at Madeline her restaurant, and in her own personal life.
When she thinks something is wrong with her computer, which has all her work and home information, she asks her geeky friend Zoe for help.
It seems someone has installed a tracking software or device on the machine and she does not know who could do such a thing. Following an attempt on her life, Zoe tells her that she needs to contact Mel her sister who works at Blackhawk Security.
Following her visit to her sister, she is given Nico Elliot as a bodyguard to take home with her. He is a former member of Delta Force and even though he is attracted to his new client, Nico remains a total professional in their initial exchanges.
On her part, she also finds herself attracted to him, even as she has to rely on him for her own safety.
