In this “fast-paced, nonstop, clever” (USA Today) novel, #1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen introduces her most popular character ever: forensic sculptor Eve Duncan.

Now Eve is trapped in a web of murder and deceit as powerful enemies rush to cover up the truth, determined that their secrets go to the grave—even if Eve gets buried with them.

About the book
Falling in love with her first love wasn’t part of her plan. Helping her kill the Hollywood elite wasn’t part of his.
Hollywood loves a comeback. Too bad Evie Reyes didn’t come back to play nice.
Five years ago, she watched her mother—an iconic Final Girl—die on the set of Simon Says. Now, she’s back on the same studio lot, cast as the lead in the reboot no one asked for. But Evie’s not here for fame. She’s here for revenge—and she’s got six names on her list.
Sebastian Shaw is Hollywood’s golden boy, a walking six-pack with just enough charm to disguise the fact that he’s a professional liar. He also happens to be Evie’s ex. When he finds out why she’s really back, he doesn’t try to stop her. He offers a deal: he’ll get her access to each of the men she wants to confront—in exchange for six chances to sleep with her.
No feelings. No strings. Definitely no dates.
As bodies pile up and the on-set accidents get harder to explain away, Evie walks a razor-thin line between staying alive and getting justice. And Sebastian? He might be the only person who sees her clearly—and the one person she can’t afford to trust.
This Final Girl isn’t just surviving—she’s stealing the whole damn show

But then I see the fear in her eyes. The bruises on her arms... the ring on her finger.

I hear a noise upstairs.
He's home.

About the book
Kyran Harbor is everything I’m not.
Rich. Popular. A superstar football player who’s awfully broody for someone who has it all. Basically, he’s a preppy jock who hates me. Oh, and he’s also my stepbrother.
That’s right. We’re stuck together, sharing a school, a house… A bathroom. Honestly, I wouldn’t care… If he wasn’t such an uptight control-freak who messes with me just because we’re different.
I had every intention of avoiding him when we got to college… Until abrupt misfortune forces us both into a compromising position.
Now the grouchy jerk I was hoping to evade might be the only person who can help me out of it.
Avi Vega is everything I despise.
A dreamer. A flake. An artist who smokes too much weed and thinks aliens exist. And by some sick cosmic joke, he’s now my stepbrother, following me on what should’ve been my escape plan.
It was already a disaster. Add a sudden financial disruption to the mix, and let’s just say my options are heavily limited.
If I want to stay an all-star quarterback on the way to the NFL, I’ll need to do something drastic. Unfortunately for me, and my desperate desire for control, the perpetually smiling stoner has a plan.
Maybe we can stop hating each other just enough to pull this off. As long as we remember we’re only doing it… for the fans.
**For The Fans is a full-length standalone MM forbidden romance with an HEA. This book contains sensitive subject matter that could make some readers uncomfortable. Please heed foreword warnings and proceed with caution.

One of the world's foremost cave divers, Heinerth's achievements include leading a team that discovered the ancient watery remains of Mayan civilizations and becoming the first person in history to dive deep into an Antarctic iceberg. In Into the Planet, she vividly recounts everything from discovering new species and examining our finite freshwater reserves to the prejudices women face when pursuing careers underwater.

About the book
Three Bratva Kings. Three forced brides. And yet... three happy endings with the loves of their lives.
Mistaken
What happens after a mistaken identity, a kidnapping, and a terrifying chase through the woods?
Something much worse. Marriage.
Maksim Morozov is the billionaire Russian Bratva King of New York City. He takes what he wants.
Unfortunately, that includes me. That's what happens when you're in the wrong place at the wrong time.
He thinks he'll keep me locked up in his penthouse like a princess in a tower. He thinks I'm a commodity to be used, like all the other women raised in his world.
What's worse? Maksim Morozov wants to own me, body and soul.
So, in the weeks between a forced Christmas wedding and Valentine's Day, he's about to find out that owning me is not going to be that easy.
Bedazzled
I wanted Tania. She was light. She was the lynchpin that kept me from flying into madness.
My father, the vicious Pakhan of the Morozov Bratva, taught Maksim and me with fists and cruelty that we were not allowed to want anything more than the life we were born into. Tania showed me that there could be more for me.
But when I was kidnapped and tortured by a rival mob, I came out of it a different man. I was a fool. I'm covered in scars, and now I truly see my place in the Morozov Bratva.
There's no room for happiness.
There's no room for Tania.
But I can't let her go.
Hellion
How could I marry the granddaughter of the monster who murdered my entire family?
After I took my revenge on the patriarch of the O'Connell Irish Mob, there was only one choice.
Marry Aisling O'Connell and solidify my new empire, even if I have to drag her kicking and screaming to the altar. And after seeing the rage and hate in her green eyes, I know that's exactly how this is going to turn out.
But I was the Obshchak of the Morozov Bratva and now, the Seann Fine of the Doyle Irish Mob. I have a duty.
She has every reason to hate me. But she's still going to be mine.
