Sins of the Angels: A Supernatural Thriller
About Sins of the Angels: A Supernatural Thriller
Homicide detective Alexandra Jarvis is up against a serial killer unlike any she’s ever encountered. She has neither time nor patience for the arrogant new partner assigned to her in the middle of the case, but he seems hellbent on getting in her way—and under her skin—at every turn.
A millennium ago, Aramael sentenced his own brother to eternal exile. Now the fallen angel is back and wreaking murderous havoc in the mortal realm, and it’s up to Aramael to stop him—and to keep the stubborn human police officer out of his path.
With tensions flaring between them and Alex’s uncanny ability to see him for who he really is, Aramael’s mission and his soul are both in serious danger. Can he and Alex work together to capture the fallen one? Or will Aramael end up committing a sin more unspeakable than that of his brother?

Lydia M. Hawke is a writer possessed of both a light side and a dark one. On the dark side, she’s the author of the Grigori Legacy, an apocalyptic urban fantasy series featuring a hard-as-nails cop caught up in the war between Heaven and Hell. In her lighter moments, she writes romances (contemporary and suspense) as Linda Poitevin. And when she’s not plotting the world’s downfall or next great love story, she’s a wife, mom, friend, coffee snob, gardener, walker of a Giant Dog, keeper of many pets, and an avid food preserver (you know, just in case that whole Zombie Apocalypse thing really happens).
Whispers in the Dark by A.L. Jambor
Whispers in the Dark by A.L. Jambor
Marigold Burnside sees ghosts. She began seeing them when she went to Cape Alden, New Jersey, to investigate an unsolved murder for a TV show called “Historical Homicides.” After her car collides with Phil Curry’s during a snowstorm, Mari suffers from head trauma. When she comes out of a coma, her encounters with the deceased begin.
Mari accepts an invitation from a kindly nurse who offers Mari the use of her garage apartment until Mari gets back on her feet. Five months pass and Mari is having trouble breaking out of a depression that keeps her from reclaiming her life, but then Celia Morton comes to visit Mari.
The mystery that brought Mari to Cape Alden revolves around a young, pregnant woman named Charlotte Johnson, who was brutally murdered in 1941. Her unborn child was never found. The person accused of killing Charlotte is none other than Celia Morton, and her visits to Mari renew her interest in the investigation.
Celia is also visiting Phil Curry. His life is in a downward spiral following the accident. Celia’s presence spooks Phil, and when he finds out that Mari is seeing her, too, Phil agrees to meet with her. Mari believes that Celia is innocent of the murder and wants them to clear her name. Mari’s exuberance is overwhelming to the introverted Phil. Still, they learn to appreciate each other’s strengths and, after a rocky start, begin to work together in earnest.
Mari starts digging into Charlotte Johnson’s past to find out how the shy girl from Pennsylvania ended up on the Jersey shore. She discovers that Charlotte was an orphan who married a boy she grew up with. He took Charlotte to Cape Alden when he accepted a job working for the local railroad. When he dies, Charlotte is left alone in the little cottage on the beach supplied by the railroad for its employees.
Things turn sour for Charlotte when she becomes pregnant. She is unmarried and disliked by the people in town who think she is a slut. Mari discovers that Charlotte’s only friend is a man named Jack, a vagabond who visits the small beach town from time to time. Was he the baby’s father?
Mari’s new ability to see ghosts gives her a unique view into Charlotte’s world, but the visions are short, and the murderer remains a mystery. As Mari gets too close to the truth, a near-death experience almost sets her back, and despite Phil’s warnings to back off, Mari can’t give up until both Celia and Charlotte can rest in peace.
“Whispers in the Dark was previously published as What She Deserved.”

A.L. Jambor’s parents met in Point Pleasant, New Jersey, when their families stayed in rented bungalows at the shore. Amy’s fondest memories include taking a roll of pennies into the arcades that lined the boardwalk in Point Pleasant and playing skeeball for hours. She loved the beach, so it’s no wonder that so many of her books take place near the Atlantic Ocean.
After raising two boys, Amy and her husband, Hans, moved to Florida. She didn’t start writing until she was well over fifty when Amy began a story about a young girl left on her own when the entire continent of North America is devastated by the release of a biological weapon. A friend read the first chapter and encouraged Amy to continue writing. The result was her first novel, But the Children Survived. Amy followed But the Children Survived with “shorts” about haunted houses and a divine detective named Nick Dandino.
Amy is an avid dog and cat lover, and she supports the abolition of puppy mills. Her dog, Trixie, inspired her to write a series about a psychic dog named Libby, who embodies the spirit of a World War I soldier named Lord Percival Plep. As Libby, Percival solves mysteries that take place in an over fifty mobile home park in Florida.
Accidentally All Of Me
I’m raising someone else’s kid.
My sister’s daughter, and where I thought I’d never make it as a single father bachelor, I was wrong.
This little girl has my heart. And only her.
Until a stray dog happens upon my place and we’re forced to call a vet.
And a beautiful woman showed up.
I didn’t believe in fate.
But it seems to believe in me.
The beautiful woman who helped us out with the dog shows up again later on a blind date across the table from me.
And I’m sold out for her before I realize what’s happening.
Pulling back is my only hope for survival.
After losing my sister, I’m far more protective of me and her little one.
But it’s a losing battle. No way I’m going anywhere, until I’m forced to.
It would seem I have a kid of my own in the world.
Maybe this is the breaking point where I can walk away from the all-consuming passion of my new romance.
Because I’m good with giving my time, my body, and all of my money.
But to her?
I’ve accidentally given all of me.

Sleeping with the Enemy by Tracy Solheim
Will their double lives deceive their hearts?
The Secret Service’s number one cyber asset, Special Agent Ben Segar, has a reputation for playing it straight… until a top-secret assignment has him cozying up to his runaway prom-date. Now, he’s willing to break a few rules to get even. Potentially unmasking a traitor at the same time makes his revenge even sweeter.
Photographer Quinn Darby was born into the spy game. When her very existence is threatened, she turns to the man she vowed never to deceive again for help. Except Ben is no longer the mild-mannered lab partner she once loved. Instead, he’s a full-grown, Alpha-man whose appeal is nearly irresistible. And to protect him, she must keep him from learning the truth about her double life.
Soon, Quinn and Ben are embroiled in a cat-and-mouse game with the enemy—and each other. Ben finds himself risking his job, national security and his life for a woman he swore to never trust again. As the case intensifies, so does the heat between them, until the op’s greatest casualties may be their hearts.

She’s been known to cook dinner, but no more than two nights in a row. Most days, she’d rather be reading, which to her is just necessary research. She lives in the suburb of Atlanta with her husband and a neurotic Labrador retriever. Her two adult children visit, but not often enough. (See the note above about cooking.)

The Serendipity Game
When hard-working office temp and part-time barmaid Casey Jonson attends a party hosted by billionaire Jake Leinster, little does she realize the irresistibly attractive stranger she hooks up with is the man himself.
But Casey has no idea that Jake’s soon-to-be-ex-wife, Hollywood actress Elena Elska, is using her an unwitting pawn in a scheme to extract more than the pre-nuptial agreement from her billionaire husband and, unforeseen by Elena, Jake and Casey fall for each other.
Elena uses the paparazzi to further her agenda, and Casey and Jake’s all-too-brief moment of wild abandon lights up social media. Over the following days, hounded by journalists, Casey becomes increasingly desperate as she loses her job and is forced to go on the run.
After Jake locates Casey, they spend time together, discovering if their attraction for each other is more than a moment of passion. Meanwhile, Elena changes her mind about the divorce and puts into play a plan to permanently eliminate her competition.
A laugh-out-loud, drama-packed love story that will have you rooting for the feisty Casey and praying for her HEA. Fans of Mhairi McFarlane, Kristin Higgins and Sophie Ranald will love with this fresh, funny modern fairytale.

Yesterwary by Styna Lane
About Yesterwary by Styna Lane
No one expects to run out of love.
We fall for neighbors, strangers, celebrities, and gods, but we rarely consider the consequences of being so careless with our own hearts.
To Demi Harper, the thought of running out of love is nothing more than another of her sister’s cautionary tales, told to protect her from heartache. But the loss of the one person in the world who loves her in return proves that it may not be so ridiculous a thought, after all.
A gasp, a pain, and a foreboding silence within her chest leads Demi to a strange, dark place outside of possibility and time. Beyond the domain of happiness and love, Yesterwary is filled only with the reminders of all that is left behind by those who give their hearts to those who do not want them.

Raven Casino loves solving mysteries. So it was only natural that she take to the Alaskan wild to find her missing friend, Juliet. She is ready to take on the world to figure out where Juliet could be. But she wasn’t expecting to meet not one, but two hunks in the icy small town of Antler, Alaska.

The fantasies with Frost and Ice are a side effect of being so close to them, but she’d get over it. Right?
