Synopsis

Sparks fly between an L.A. career woman and a former Army Ranger in this delightful enemies-to-lovers romance from the USA Today bestselling queen of small-town love stories.

Welcome to Highland Falls, a small town where love is always in the air.

In just a few months Abby Everhart has gone from being a top LA media influencer to an unemployed divorcée living out of her car. So inheriting her great-aunt’s homestead comes at the perfect time. Abby heads to Highland Falls, North Carolina, to spruce up Honeysuckle Farm before putting it on the market for some much-needed cash. But instead of finding a charming getaway, she discovers a serious fixer-upper, complete with a leaky roof, overgrown yard, and a reclusive — albeit sexy — man living on the property.

Ex-Delta Force soldier Hunter MacKenzie has faced war and loss, but nothing has quite prepared him for an outgoing redhead who’s determined to turn his life upside down. Hunter doesn’t want to get involved with anyone, especially a city girl who plans to sell the only place he’s ever felt at home. But the sparks between them are undeniable. Spending time with Abby is easy. Convincing her to stay for good is another matter entirely.

When Tess Beckett married Jim, a well-respected and decorated cop, she thought all her dreams had come true. But within two years the vows she made were shattered as her husband was charged with murdering ten women.

As a frantic and rigorous manhunt gets underway in four states, Tess knows that it’s only a matter of time until her perfect husband tracks her down for the revenge he is sure to demand.

c8df8-add2bto2bgoodreads2bblack

Genre: Crime Caper / Cozy Mystery

  Teaser from page 73% in the eBook.

Doug nodded. “I think you have a djinni on the loose.”

Synopsis

Zoey Rivers has a pretty great job as Head of Staff at Sunnyside Retired Witches Community. She’s good at handling the magical messes that are part and parcel of providing a home for elderly (and some slightly senile) witches.

But when the messes turn from slightly sloppy to hugely horrible, Zoey realizes there’s more involved than just her residents.

If she doesn’t figure out who’s causing havoc at the Home, the place might not be standing for much longer.

If you love crime capers with magic, mayhem, and mystery, you’ll adore Zoey Rivers and her comical crew of witch retirees.

Please note: This book is a crime caper, not a murder mystery.

Nightfall

by Jake Halpern and Peter Kujawinski

 

29341573. sy475

c8df8-add2bto2bgoodreads2bblack

Genre: Horror / YA

  Teaser from page 74 in the hard cover.

“Everything that we’ve been doing, we do for one simple reason. For generations, it has kept us safe. Every household in Bliss follows these directions, and upon return to our homes fourteen years later, everything is in perfect order. ”

~~~~~

Synopsis

After fourteen years of Day comes fourteen years of Night. Be sure not to get left in the dark.

On Marin’s island, sunrise doesn’t come every twenty-four hours – it comes every twenty-eight years. Now the sun is just a sliver of light on the horizon. The weather is turning cold. The shadows are growing long. The dark is rising. And soon it will be Night.

The eerie Evening sunset is causing the tide to begin its slow roll out hundreds of miles, and so Marin, along with her twin brother Kana and the rest of the islanders, must frantically begin preparations to sail south, where they will wait out the long Night. But first the house must be made ready for their departure. Locks must be taken off doors. Furniture must be arranged just so. Tables must be set as if for dinner. The rituals are bizzare – unnerving, even – but none of the adults will discuss why things must be this way. And then just as the ships are about to sail, the twins’ friend Line goes missing. Marin and Kana know where he has gone, and that the only way to rescue him is to do it themselves. And surely the ships will wait?

Because Night is falling. Their island is changing. And something is stirring in the dark.
