Past Deeds
Brandon Fisher FBI series Book 8
Author: Carolyn Arnold
AVAILABLE at Amazon
The sun was just coming up, and the sniper’s hands were sweaty as she looked through the rifle’s scope to the streets eight stories below and point eight miles away. In mere minutes, the target would be dead.
A prosecuting attorney is murdered in a sniping that takes place in Arlington, Virginia, less than fifteen minutes from Washington. FBI Agent Brandon Fisher and his team with the Behavioral Analysis Unit are called in to investigate the threat level and to determine if the lawyer was targeted. The FBI hadn’t anticipated previous victims stretching from coast to coast.
The team splits up across the country, but more than jet lag is getting to Brandon. As their profile on the shooter takes shape, their one theory on motive strikes too close to home and has him battling with regret over a past decision. He comes to discover some choices not only haunt us but can have long- and far-reaching repercussions we couldn’t even begin to imagine. Will Brandon be able to set aside his personal issues for long enough to stop a serial killing spree before there’s another victim?

Lightkeeper Series Book 1
Author: Amy Manemann
AVAILABLE at Amazon
Barnes and Noble
“When you come into your powers, you will attract the attention of every dark force in the world. They’ll flock to Salem in droves for the chance to harvest your powers.”
Welcome to my world…the world of witches, guardians, and Lightkeepers, and a dark evil that threatens to end the world as we know it.
In most ways, I – Willa Devries - am your normal teenager, living with my aunt in Salem, Massachusetts, and eagerly awaiting my big 2-0 birthday. I’m also a witch from a sacred race called the Lightkeepers, charged to carry out the time-honored duty of holding the light of the world against the darkness—against the Underworlders and their evil.
But that evil has become more powerful than anyone has ever seen, and suddenly the Lightkeepers are looking to me to hold it off. Me, who is not yet trained in her powers but who apparently possesses a rare level of magic that is about to bring every dark force in the world to my doorstep. How will I keep my aunt safe, much less the entire world?
The answer, I hope, is Braeden. He’s my Guardian, and damn, if I have to face unspeakable evil, he’s the guy I want by my side. Powerful, mysterious, sexy… He’s spent his life in training, preparing to protect me and help me fulfill my destiny. Only I get the feeling that even with all his skills, nothing could have prepared him for the extent of my new powers. Or for the effect I have on him.
Desire…I feel it for him too, but the fate of the world lies on my shoulders – no pressure, right? The steamy attraction we share has to take a backseat in order for him to teach me how to harness my magic. If we don’t get
?my crazy powers under control, the Underworld will blanket everyone and everything in a darkness that is as relentless as it is terrifying.
Failure isn’t an option; the world is depending on us. On me. I’ve got one chance to do this right, and I’m going to give it everything I’ve got.

When Nick Rialto, a young, handsome, up-and-coming Broadway star suddenly finds his Tony-nominated play cancelled, he retreats to his family’s home in the mountains of Western Pennsylvania to lick his wounds. He’s sure that his New York agent will soon find him the “next big thing” and his life will be back on course in no time.
Then he happens to meet the local, small-town ballet teacher. Gigi Lloyd is beautiful, graceful, and a force to be reckoned with. Nick is so taken with her that he volunteers for a minor role in her Christmas production of The Nutcracker, even though he feels overqualified. It’s a chance to be around her and keep his theater skills honed, at least until the holiday season arrives.
But soon, the romantic sparks start to fly. They both fight their feelings—it’s crystal clear that their views, values and ambitions are worlds apart. Gigi has been burned in the past, and she doesn’t care for the highly ambitious Nick, with his seemingly shallow, big city values. And Nick can’t imagine frittering his life away in a small town, far from the glamorous allure of Broadway and cafe society.
Since neither of them is ready to compromise, it seems that their relationship has no future. Or will their love outweigh their differences?

One beautiful summer’s evening, thirteen-year-old twins Ivy and Erin Westmore snuggle down in a tent in their back garden, giggling and sharing secrets.

The alarm is raised and Detective Natalie Ward is put onto the case. When the twins’ bodies are discovered on nearby marshland, covered with deep pink petals, an icy shiver travels down Natalie’s spine. Everything about the girls’ deaths reminds her of a horrifying case she worked on earlier in her career, which saw a killer of the worst kind placed behind bars.
The next day, that feeling is heightened when she receives a chilling note saying ‘I’m back’. Is this killer a copycat or did Natalie put the wrong person in prison all those years ago? In a small town, where no stranger goes unnoticed, what is Natalie missing?
Consumed by the case, determined to prevent more deaths, Natalie misses the fact that it is her attention the killer wants. And to get it, he has his sights set firmly on her precious daughter Leigh…
