Romance / Suspense

Is it worth a second chance at love?

After ten years of running from her past, Liv Evans returns to her hometown – and the woman she left behind. When one of her best friends is found dead and her death declared a suicide, Liv decides that if no one else will find the truth, she will. Even if that means working with the woman whose heart she broke long ago.

Ryan Olsen never expected Liv to come back…and she definitely didn’t expect to still be in love with her. She also didn’t expect to keep running into her at crime scenes. But when the “suicide” seems to be tied to two missing teenagers, and the Chief of Police is determined to do anything to keep Ryan out of the investigation, Ryan’s gut tells her there’s more to it – and Liv may hold the key. Plus, it may be the only way Ryan can keep Liv out of trouble.

But things are not what they seem, and both of them may be the target of a killer that is far worse than they know. Will they get their second chance? Or will they fall prey to a killer determined to tear them apart?

Romance

Carmen hasn’t had snow on Christmas in ten years. Her family has grown accustomed to beaches and extravagant tropical vacations, but she still remembers the snow in Massachusetts when she was a kid.

When her dad decides to book a cabin in the idyllic, snow-capped mountains of Colorado for Christmas, the rest of the family is skeptical – why trade palm trees and warm weather for a snowbound ski resort?

Carmen’s in the same ‘bah humbug’ mood until she meets the impossibly optimistic, endlessly intriguing Joy and their worlds collide – quite literally – on the slopes.

Joy has lived her whole life on Emerald Mountain and watched a lot of people come and go through the resort town. She has learned to expect a certain amount of impermanence here, but Carmen makes her hope for more than just a vacation romance.

Can Joy help Carmen and her family rediscover the true spirit of Christmas?

Romance

Eighteen-year-old Charlee Parker met the love of her life in a parking lot—a leggy brunette with a valedictorian medal hanging from her rear-view mirror and an attitude as biting as a Boston winter.

Alexandra Woodson was guarded, a nineteen-year-old orphan set on a bright future in hospitality administration. She never imagined an art student with a penchant for cheesy pick-up lines and stealing parking spaces would crack her rigid exterior and claim her heart.

For four years, theirs was an enviable love—evergreen and growing. Unbreakable…

Until it broke.

Alex’s job now brings her back to Boston, after five years working on the opposite side of the country. When, by chance, they meet again, Charlee and Alex are swept up in a whirlwind of heart-rending history, tossed between past and present, and lovers old and new. Will their lingering connection be enough to convince them that some loves are meant to last? Or should the past remain in the past?

Super hearing? More like killer headache.

Frankie’s struggling with her new super power. Being able to hear nails on a chalkboard sucks, especially if it’s happening across the city.

With the right motivation, the player stays a player, with both poker and women. But one woman in particular, Audrey, makes a particular impression. Frankie tries to avoid her, because super powers and civilians don’t mix, but life isn’t really listening to Frankie at the moment.

When Frankie finds herself mixed up in an illegal heist, she’s okay with it… until Audrey is involved, too. And when illegal turns deadly? It’ll take owning up to her mistakes and listening to her heart over all the other noise to keep them safe.

But a sinister evil is lurking in the shadows, and the search for archaeological remains quickly turns into something much darker: a desperate race to stay alive…
