July 1922

If there’s one thing to draw you together, it’s shared misery.

Hettie and Ro married manipulative, lying, money-grubbing pigs. Therefore, they were instant friends. When those philandering dirtbags died, they found themselves the subjects of a murder investigation. Did they kill their husbands? No. Did they joke about it? Maybe. Do they need to find the killer before the crime is pinned on them? They do!

Join Hettie and Ro and their growing friendship as they delve into their own lives to find a killer, a best friend, and perhaps a brighter new outlook.

Master Nicolo, known as “The Unbreakable,” is more than a legend—he’s an unstoppable force with a deadly reputation. As protector to Prince Balduin, Nicolo’s skill in combat and his preternatural instincts make him a man you don’t cross. But beneath his terrifying exterior lies a haunted past, where his friendship with a dying prince lifted him from poverty and set his fate in motion.

For me, an assassin with orders to kill Nicolo, this mission is supposed to be just another job. But as I travel alongside Nicolo on a dangerous quest, the man I’ve been sent to kill begins to reveal a different side—a charismatic force that draws me in deeper with every step. Seduction becomes a weapon in this deadly game, and I’m torn between the power of his allure and the weight of my deadly task.

When Nicolo uncovers my betrayal, everything changes. Cast into the dungeons of Woodfall Gath, I escape only to find myself in the hands of Duke Wylder, a rebel plotting to overthrow the kingdom.

1962. The Cold War is on. The key to the West beating the Soviets to the moon is scientist Dr. Karl Hoffner, living under house arrest in Chinese-controlled Tibet.

In 1959, British Intelligence agent Paul Chavasse helped the Dalai Lama escape Tibet. Now his government has persuaded him to go back for Hoffner. Chavasse knows the language and the land. He also knows how important it is to get the scientist back alive. . .

But trouble can be waiting for him anywhere. Perhaps on the illegal flight through the Himalayas or among the Chinese occupiers or the distrustful natives. Maybe with Tibetan freedom fighters or a trigger-happy army. Or at the hands of a beautiful woman . . .

When the fate of the world hangs in the balance, a spy can never be too careful.

Meet Kent’s Detective Chief Superintendent Fran Harman. She’s given everything to rise to the top. She’s menopausal, overworked — and the only one who can crack this impossible case.

‘In Cutler, we are undoubtedly dealing with the crème de la crème.’ The Times

Please note, this book was previously published as Life Sentence.

Months from retirement, Detective Fran Harman should be winding down and planning her move to the seaside. Instead, her boss — a dear friend who’s fast becoming something more — hands her the most baffling cold case of her career.

The victim is dubbed Elise. She was found by a road, battered beyond recognition. A passing man tried to resuscitate her.

She’s been lying in a hospital bed ever since. Visited by the man who gave her the kiss of life. He was the prime suspect, but he has a cast-iron alibi.

I, Marlow Taylor, need to stop fantasizing about the hot, single dad next door.

Should I have agreed to nanny his cute six year old who loves my dog Waffles? Absolutely not.

But her dad seems to think he can do everything himself. (spoiler: no one can)

3 reasons why I absolutely cannot fall for Dylan Stafford:

He’s grumpy and doesn’t seem to like me very much
He lives next door – literally next door to my perfect pink house
There are no secrets in a small town

I’m an optimistic artist, never living in one place for too long.

He’s a cynical billionaire, trying to raise his kid on his own like a “normal” person.

Since I’m not going to fall for Dylan Stafford, it shouldn’t matter that he shovels my driveway or looks at me like he could devour me.

Emma Carpenter lives in isolation with her golden retriever Laika, house-sitting an old beachfront home on the rainy Washington coast. Her only human contact is her enigmatic old neighbor, Deek, and (via text) the house’s owner, Jules.

One day, she reads a poorly written—but gruesome—horror novel by the author H. G. Kane, and posts a one-star review that drags her into an online argument with none other than the author himself. Soon after, disturbing incidents start to occur at night. To Emma, this can’t just be a coincidence. It was strange enough for this author to bicker with her online about a lousy review; could he be stalking her, too?

As Emma digs into Kane’s life and work, she learns he has published sixteen other novels, all similarly sadistic tales of stalking and murder. But who is he? How did he find her? And what else is he capable of?

After a six-year absence, Addison Potts is back in Charleston to stir things up. And what better place to make her villainous return than her estranged cousin’s wedding? Only, the nuptials hit a snag when the bride doesn’t show, leaving Addison to play getaway driver for Elijah, the jilted groom. A groom whose heartbreaking smile and deep, southern drawl she should not be noticing…

Elijah Montgomery Du Pont is the future mayor of Charleston. From his military career to city hall, every detail of his life has been meticulously planned. Until now. His only respite from life’s sudden upheaval is Addison, his new, improbable best friend. She makes him happy. Grounds him. And public disapproval be damned, he’s not willing to give her up. But with an election on the line and public pressure rising, Addison—and the cruel hand of fate—might not give him a choice.

In April of 1846, twenty-one-year-old Sarah Graves, intent on a better future, set out west from Illinois with her new husband, her parents, and eight siblings. Seven months later, after joining a party of pioneers led by George Donner, they reached the Sierra Nevada Mountains as the first heavy snows of the season closed the pass ahead of them. In early December, starving and desperate, Sarah and fourteen others set out for California on snowshoes, and, over the next thirty-two days, endured almost unfathomable hardships and horrors.

In this gripping narrative, New York Times bestselling author Daniel James Brown sheds new light on one of the most legendary events in American history. Following every painful footstep of Sarah’s journey with the Donner Party, Brown produces a tale both spellbinding and richly informative.
