Counterfeit Relations turns a fake relationship into a dangerous security assignment where attraction complicates every boundary.
Counterfeit Relations
Romance · Romantic Suspense
Our take
Counterfeit Relations turns a fake relationship into a dangerous security assignment where attraction complicates every boundary. Brock only needs to pose as Eva’s boyfriend long enough to scare off her stalker, but the threat follows them to Alaska and refuses to stay harmless. This romantic suspense blends forced proximity, protective tension, and a guarded heroine facing danger that no court order can fully contain.

About the book
When you cross lines every day it can be hard to remember what’s real.
And what’s not.
Keeping Eva Tatum safe was supposed to be a simple task. One Brock Cassidy should have been able to do with one arm tied behind his back.
All he had to do was pretend to be her boyfriend.
Show up and bluff away the stalker giving the bull-headed business woman the creeps.
But the more time he spends around her, the less faking Brock is doing.
And protecting the woman who hired him becomes personal.
Going to Alaska was just a precaution.
One Eva was forced to take, whether she wanted to or not.
It’s not like there was any real danger. She’d faced crazy once, and this was definitely not it. The situation was completely manageable.
Harmless, really.
But crazy has a way of showing up where it’s not wanted. Where it’s not allowed.
And crazy isn’t allowed within one-hundred feet of Eva. She has the court documents to prove it.
But papers don’t stop madmen intent of claiming what they believe should be theirs.
And taking down anything in their way.
Counterfeit Relations is book 2 in the Alaskan Security-Team Rogue series. This series contains an overreaching subplot that connects across multiple books and is best read in order. Every book contains a HEA for the couple featured, but some story lines are left open at the end of each book and continued in the next.

Obsession Falls
Romance · Romantic Suspense · RomCom
Our take
Someone is watching Audrey, and the danger closes in before she can understand why. In Obsession Falls, a struggling journalist lands in a small town and next door to a brooding loner who wants nothing to do with complications until protecting her becomes impossible to resist. This is small-town romantic suspense with stalking tension, protective instincts, and a grumpy-sunshine pairing at its center.

About the book
He’ll risk it all to protect her.
Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why.
It’s bad enough that she’s back in Tilikum. But Audrey’s good at making the best of things and her new job at the small-town newspaper is just a way to get back on her feet.
Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven.
She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it.
She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it, or why.
For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.
She’s just the girl next door. Fine, the frustratingly hot girl next door. But Audrey is all sunshine and her goofy dog isn’t any better. Josiah is too stoic. Too solitary. Too guarded. He doesn’t need a woman in his life, especially one who threatens to crack his heart wide open.
But Josiah is a protector and he can’t let Audrey’s troubles go unanswered, even if he has to risk everything—his life and his heart—to keep her safe.
Author’s Note: a grumpy loner meets his match in a sunshiney dog lover who’s a little down on her luck. And once he falls, he falls HARD. It’s small-town romantic suspense with CK’s signature humor, endearing characters, and heartwarming happily ever after.
Obsession Falls can be read as a stand-alone.

Race Against Time
Romantic Suspense · Thriller · Police Procedural
Our take
A rescue in the middle of violence pulls a woman with nothing to spare into the path of something far more dangerous. Race Against Time follows Quinn O'Meara after she finds a crying baby at a burning crime scene and becomes entangled in a human-trafficking ring, while homicide detective Nick Saldano fights to protect the woman he never forgot. This is an emotional thriller with high stakes, second-chance tension, and a deeply personal sense of danger.

About the book
"An emotional thriller, packed with action, love, regrets, and criminal activity that will make your blood boil . . . a phenomenal story." —Fresh Fiction
Sometimes fate brings you together—only to tear you apart . . .
Growing up in the foster system, Quinn O'Meara made a point of never getting involved. But when she discovers a crying baby amid a fiery crime scene, she knows she has no choice. Suddenly in way over her head, Quinn turns to the police, unintentionally positioning herself in the crosshairs of a deadly human-trafficking ring.
The last time homicide detective Nick Saldano saw Quinn, she was still the young girl he'd shared a foster home with. The girl who'd loved and cared for him when no one else had. Now here she was, gorgeously all grown-up—and in terrible danger.
Unwilling to lose her again, Nick insists on keeping Quinn close, especially when the bond they once shared heatedly slides into desire. Quinn finally has someone worth holding on to, but what kind of future can they have when she might not live to see tomorrow?

About the book
One body.
Two Minds.
An obsession that might bury her.
Maeve Lockhart has spent six months chasing shadows in Thornhaven, desperate to uncover the truth about her best friend Bethany’s disappearance. But her search no longer focuses on the past. It is tied to a string of violent murders, all connected to Thornhaven Orphanage, where it all began.
Caleb Blackwood keeps his distance, clinging to the quiet life he has built as a small-town veterinarian. But Caleb has a secret, one he does not fully understand, and when Maeve starts asking questions, his fragile control begins to crumble. Asher, the darker side of him, emerges, and he is impossible to contain.
When Maeve receives a chilling package signed by A, her investigation takes a dangerous turn. The deeper she digs, the more she is forced to confront not only Thornhaven’s secrets, but the growing darkness within herself. Her connection to Caleb threatens to unravel everything, and the truth she uncovers may cost her far more than her sanity.
As the lines between victim and villain blur, Maeve must decide: Can she trust Caleb to help her, or is he the very reason she will not make it out alive?
Shattered Minds is a dark, romantic psychological thriller exploring the thin line between love and obsession, trust, and the price of the truth.
For fans of psychological tension, pitch-black characters, and romance steeped in danger, Amanda Kade’s gripping novel will keep you turning pages.

About the book
“The undisputed queen of dark rom-coms is back with a new swoony, one-of-a-kind banger, and the book world better get ready for it!” —Ali Hazelwood, #1 New York Times bestselling author
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brynne Weaver comes a wickedly delicious new series where dark romantic comedy meets thrilling suspense—and where falling in love can be a killer.
Welcome to Cape Carnage! Visit Once, Stay Forever.
You can hide in the farthest reaches of the deepest hell, and I will still drag you out. Even the devil can’t save you from me.
Cape Carnage is a seaside town of colorful houses, quirky shops, and an unusually high body count. With tourists comes trouble, and Harper Starling won’t let anyone ruin her picture-perfect home. A skilled gardener with killer instincts, Harper protects her sanctuary—and her aging mentor with a fading memory—at any cost. Troublesome tourists don’t check out of Carnage. They compost beneath Harper’s award-winning flowerbeds.
But Nolan Rhodes isn’t your average tourist. Devilishly handsome, disarmingly charming, and skilled with a blade, Nolan is relentless in the pursuit of revenge. On every anniversary of the hit-and-run accident that fractured his life, Nolan slays another target. And he’s saved the best for last: the undeniably beautiful Harper Starling. The problem? Harper isn’t the monster he expected. And she won’t go down without a fight.
When an amateur true crime investigator comes to Cape Carnage on the trail of a long-lost serial killer, Harper and Nolan strike an uneasy truce. If Nolan helps Harper protect her town, she’ll keep quiet about his hunting habits . . . for now. But their alliance soon spirals into obsession, one that threatens to shatter every secret in Carnage—including their fragile love.
Tourist Season is a darkly funny, slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romance where destruction and desire are balanced on the edge of a blade—and where love is the most dangerous battleground of all.

About the book
He'll go down for his permanent record.
LEOPOLD GIDEON spent his childhood as the poor kid in a rich school until he met an older man who took him under his wing and into his bed, teaching him to not only survive but thrive among the elite and to never submit to anybody…except him. For fifteen years, Gideon had everything, but then tragedy strikes, leaving him alone once again.
CALLUM WHYTE was raised with every conceivable luxury but one: loving parents. When his father is indicted for federal crimes and his assets frozen, Cal has to learn to survive with nothing. When a friend offers him money to spend the night with a hot older man, Cal has no choice but to say yes or literally risk going without medication he needs to stay alive.
One night with Gideon leaves Cal’s head spinning and his body longing for something he never thought he’d want: discipline. Too bad Gideon never plays with the same boy twice, not even ones who beg as sweetly as Cal.
Just when Cal thinks all hope is lost, he discovers Gideon is the new headmaster for his school, leading him to devise a plan to get what he wants by blackmailing the older man into spending the next six weeks with him. But Cal is about to learn it doesn’t pay to blackmail someone who doles out his punishments.
Will this battle of wills end in a ceasefire or heartbreak?

About the book
From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Giana Darling comes a sapphic dark academia Medusa retelling about a woman who was wronged by her idols and refused to pay the price without getting revenge...
I was born a woman.
Raised by women.
In love with women.
Until I enrolled at Acheron University, I'd never known much of men. I certainly didn't know enough to fear them.
Then one stormy autumnal night, Professor Morgan tried to destroy me.
And when we were discovered by the university President, it was me who was punished for the unwanted seduction.
But they left me with two valuable lessons.
I would never let another woman be hurt by men again if I could help it.
And when someone hurts you, betrays you, and tries to rip out your soul, there is only one remedy for the pain.
Revenge.
And mine takes the form of the President's very beautiful, very virginal, very straight daughter, Luna Pallas.
Before the end of term, I'll destroy her innocence just as her mother and Professor Morgan destroyed mine.

I hate that woman.

About the book
ZANE
Is it wrong that I watch him?
Leif Anderson seems like a friendly, kind, normal, boy-next-door type.
Unlike me.
His stalker, a creep who moved into the place next to his parents' house to keep an eye on him.
I'm not the bad guy, though.
I'm the one who will protect him.
The cops don't believe he's in danger.
Maybe they're right, and this is all in my messed-up head.
I've been wrong before.
And no matter how I justify this to myself, my motives aren't entirely pure.
It's impossible to watch a guy this hot walking around in those adorable beanies without getting a little turned on.
When he discovers my secret surveillance, I'm sure it's over.
No way he believes my reasons for watching him, but he doesn't report me for my crime.
He's curious about me in a way I don't expect from a straight guy.
Or as I quickly learn, maybe not so straight.
Before I know it, we're on a journey, exploring this wild, exciting part of Leif while I try to keep him safe from harm.
But the closer we get to one another, the more I wonder: what if it was all in my head?
What if no one's coming for him?
What if the real threat to Leif is me, the guy next door?
