DISCOVER AN ABSORBING NEW CRIME THRILLER THAT WILL KEEP YOU TURNING THE PAGES.
Meet Detective Rebecca ‘Bec’ Pope. Between trying to keep the peace with her teenage stepdaughters, and negotiating a relationship with her estranged father, Bec’s got more than enough on her plate. And she can’t sleep.
The murders begin. A sick killer . . . who likes to watch.
Bec’s been home for just twenty minutes. Her sixteen-year-old stepdaughter’s having a row with her dad. Then she gets the call: ‘There’s been a murder. A church in Deptford.’
The woman’s body is arranged carefully on the altar of the quiet church. There’s a note on the body, addressed to Bec. ‘Dear Rebecca. You’re invited.’ That’s all it says.
The victim is a stay-at-home mum. It turns out she was attacked in the hallway of her tidy suburban home. And on a table by the front door, partially hidden by a bowl of keys, is a small surveillance camera.
The killer is watching the victim’s and the police’s every move.
Bec and her team barely have time to process this before another woman is found dead.
A note on her chest is addressed to Bec and a hidden camera is recording everything.
Bec is the only link between the murders . . . But she has no idea why.
Bec must dig into her past to find the killer before he strikes even closer to home . . .
Fans of Matt Brolly, Helen H. Durrant, Alex Gray, Rachel McLean, Caro Ramsay and Priscilla Masters will love this page-turning crime thriller.

Small-town witch. Big-time trouble. One seriously sketchy chimp.
Summer Thorne’s erratic magic is more hazardous than helpful—but it won’t stop her from building a sanctuary for creatures no one else wants. Neither will the grumpy sheriff next door breathing down her neck about permits, safety codes, and the chimpanzee she may or may not have illegally liberated from a testing facility.
Sheriff Cooper Carlyle is a stickler for the rules, which is why Summer makes him absolutely crazy. He’s tried to ignore her for years, ever since an ill-fated prom night. But when her mischievous menagerie wreaks havoc across town again, Coop’s done playing nice.
Now the ruthless owner of the animal lab has come knocking, seeking clues to a riddle residing only in Morty the Chimp’s mind. Coop has a choice to make: he can either enforce the law or break it to protect the woman he’s fallen for.
? Perfect for fans of Tricia O’Malley, K.F. Breene, Deanna Chase, and Robyn Peterman. Summer Magic delivers a laugh-out-loud blend of quirky magic, sizzling tension, and second-chance romance with bite.
*Not recommended for anyone under 18 years of age due to content and language.

Life is weird. One day, you’re in the garden, tending your tulips and growing your flower farm business, and the next, your doctor is handing you a prescription for synthetic blood and signing you up for vampire support groups.
Hi, I’m Piper Edwards, and I’m pre-vampiric. Here are a few things I didn’t know a month ago:
The cute guy who visits my flower stall at the farmer’s market every week is a vampire. And he’s not so cute. He’s a stalker.
Vampires have a lot of food options. If you don’t like prescription synthetic blood, there are subscription services that will deliver exotic animal blood to your doorstep every week. Organic, free-range, wild-caught—the options are endless.
The government requires all infected individuals to be assigned to a conservator. Mostly, they hang around to help their pre-vamps learn the ropes and navigate their new diet. But if you’re a really lucky pre-vamp, your conservator will be a wicked-hot, recently demoted hunter who will hold your hand at doctor’s appointments and track down your stalker, bodyguard style.
In case you’re not sure, I got lucky. My conservator’s name is Noah, and this is our story…
A Vampire’s Guide to Gardening is a fun and flirty fantasy rom-com you can sink your teeth into. (Pun intended.) Full of humor, spark-and-smolder chemistry, and practical tips for growing your flower gardening business when you become allergic to the sun, this series is sure to delight fans of cozy paranormal romance.
The books in this series feature spicy-sweet closed-door romance. (Passionate kisses and some innuendo, but no on-page steamy scenes.)

Never trust a werewolf.
I’m the weakest cartomancer who ever lived, but I can use Tarot cards to work magic. Most days. That makes me the natural prey of the Soldiers of the Light, the jumped-up werewolves who police the magic community. They’ve hunted cartomancers for centuries because of some stupid ancient feud.
Never speak to a werewolf.
I’m helping the local vampires track a rogue that’s menacing our little town when I knock a handsome stranger off his motorbike. He’s badly hurt but refuses medical help. So I take Mr Tall, Dark and Suspicious home—and find out he’s a Soldier. Because that’s just the kind of day I’m having.
Never, under any circumstances, fall in love with a werewolf.
He’s my sworn enemy, but sparks fly between us. Now I have a monster to catch and a town to save, all while guarding my secret—and my heart—from a man who would kill me without a second thought if he knew the truth.
