Looking for a story

Looking for a story and author. May only be available on Kindle now. A deputy sheriff has a heart attack saving a ET child from a flash flood. The ET commander feels he owes a debt of honor so he has the deputy revived, but to cover up what happens he transfers the consciousness of the deputy into a female body that can't be connected to the deputy. The Air Force gets wing of the woman and is trying to track her down for her extra abilities.

There are at least two books about her, the second I know is only available online, not sure about the first.
