From New York Times Bestselling Author Laura Scott
“If you leave on your own, you’ll be dead by morning.”
Critical Care Nurse Natalia Sokolova can’t ignore former FBI Agent Sloan Dryer’s dire warning. After the Deputy Prime Minister of Russia dies under her care and her house explodes in front of her eyes, she finds her best friend brutally murdered. Ironically, the only bright spot in this horrific nightmare is Sloan’s determination to protect her.
Sloan is convinced that someone wants to kill Natalia and when he finds a link to her family, he’s not sure who they can trust. As they run for their lives, and from the attraction simmering between them, they uncover a terrorist plot that could bring the nation to its knees. Time is running out. Can Sloan and Natalia save their country and their future, before it’s too late?

A killer pie, a tight-knit squad, an ex who won’t quit, and one sassy cat.
Maddie never expected to find her best friend’s body—let alone be accused of the crime. Now, she’s in a race against time to clear her name before she ends up behind bars… or the real killer strikes again.
With her ride-or-die gal pals by her side—and a feisty feline with a nose for trouble—Maddie dives into the case. But things get complicated when her ex, the town sheriff, keeps getting in the way. He may be as confused as she is, but the real question is: does he believe she’s innocent?
Baking may be Maddie’s specialty, but solving a murder isn’t as easy as pie.
If you love Murder, She Wrote and culinary cozies packed with charm, mystery, and a touch of sass, you’ll love the Maple Lane Mysteries!
Each book contains an easy recipe or two!
“This book was so much longer than your average cozy mystery, and I love that about it. It’s not a simple murder cozy. You get to know the characters better and I just think a longer storyline has more flavor! I also love that it’s a strong female main character who doesn’t need a man to be happy. Having a little romance mixed in then makes it that much better. Can’t wait to try the recipes.” – K J Nolan
“I like to try to solve the case before I get to the big reveal, but I was wrong. I love that. I’ve never read this author before, but I will definitely read the next book in this series. Don’t miss this one.” – Celest
“Don’t think for a moment that this Apple Pie Cozy is like all the others. Yes, there is a murder, but it is solved totally different from all the rest. I read this book in one night not because it’s short, but because it was that good. I recommend this book and I will read all of C.A.Phipps works.” – Deborah Lavery
“Light, easy reading, this book had great characters and a plot that was easy to follow.” – Gloria

Breaking Free is a romantic suspense about a military hero who moves to small-town Steele Ridge for a new start. When his best friend’s sister–and expert hacker–shows up, this hero will do whatever it takes to protect her.
As the black sheep of the Steele brood, Micki Steele craves one thing: the love of her family. Working as a hacker for a ruthless fixer, Micki has done things she’ll never be proud of. When she flees Vegas and returns to her hometown, she brings along her boss’s secrets and plenty of danger. At least until he arrives in Steele Ridge, intent on hauling her back to Vegas—or burying her in North Carolina.
Former Green Beret and family friend Gage Barber has been Mr. Fix-It his entire life, but now a war wound leaves him struggling with simple tasks. And when the mysterious and sexy Micki shows up and pulls him into the middle of her family drama, his loyalty to the Steele family is tested. Although he’s sworn off his need to play hero, his undeniable attraction to Micki leaves him with only one option—convincing her to break free of her ruthless boss.
Torn over protecting the man she’s falling in love with and her yearning for a normal life, Micki must choose between staying trapped in Vegas or a life of freedom in Steele Ridge. Even if breaking free leads straight to heartbreak…and prison.
