  Ainsley McGregor and the entire town of Sweet River, Texas, are preparing for the annual summer celebration.

  I’m proud to be a geek 
  I’m smart, but I’m also awkward and somewhat socially inept—forever doomed to live in the shadow of my dead brother. 
  My job as a research engineer is amazing, though, and recently, I’ve managed to make some friends in my hometown of Forestville. 
  But when the wrong people show too much interest in my latest invention, my boss wants me protected. Despite my fierce protests, I end up back in Forestville. With a bodyguard who poses as my boyfriend. 
  Quillon is nothing like I had expected. He’s my opposite, but we connect in ways I never saw coming, and for the first time, I don’t feel alone. He takes care of me like no one ever has. 
  Oh, and he’s also extremely hot, which is fascinating because I’ve always thought I was straight. Apparently not. 
  But is this just a temporary thing or could it be forever?

  In May 1997, eighteen-year-old Laura McPherson left her house for a run and didn’t return. Twenty years later, a reporter arrives in the small town of Griffiths to write an article about the unsolved murder of Laura McPherson. He is the most recent in a long line of journalists, podcasters, and amateur sleuths seeking new insights into what really happened to Laura. Laura’s younger brother, David, a repressed and stuck thirty-something, is dealing with the recent death of his mother when the reporter comes knocking. The last surviving family member, David has lived a sheltered life, protected from the prying eyes of the media by his mother. But David cannot escape the past forever and soon finds himself confronting the lasting impact of his sister’s death. As David learns more about his sister and the history of Griffiths, his eyes are opened to the casual violence, misogyny, and racism that lurk just below the surface of his seemingly placid community. Provocative and haunting, Not That Kind of Place is a compelling exploration of our obsession with true-crime stories and the devastating effects of systemic violence on our most vulnerable populations.

  A bundle of books #1 (WITHOUT MERCY) and  #2 (WITHOUT REMORSE) in Ava Strong’s Dakota Steele FBI Suspense Thriller series! This bundle offers books one and two in one convenient file.MMA champ-turned-FBI Special Agent and BAU specialist Dakota Steele is as tough as they come—and as brilliant, too, able to crack serial killers that no one else can.“The plot has many twists and turns, but it is the ending, which I did not see coming at all, that totally defines this book as one of the most riveting that I have read in years.”—Reader review for Not Like UsIn WITHOUT MERCY (Book #1), Dakota’s last case broke her, driving her to quit the FBI and return to the hard streets of her South Dakota hometown. She is weighed down by a lifetime of fighting, and by the demons of her dark past: her missing sister who vanished when Dakota was a teenager. Her estranged father, who she still can’t bring herself to speak to. The killer she let get away. Dakota has hit her low point. Only the most desperate case—and the tough love of her partner—can lure her back. Victims are disappearing along empty stretches of desert highway, with no witnesses. The landscape is desolate, the people tough and dangerous. And the police are stumped. Time is running out before the next victim is taken, and it’s up to Dakota to connect the dots. Can Dakota stop him in time? Or will her own demons take her for good?In WITHOUT REMORSE (Book #2), when bodies turn up in scrap metal yards, displayed in dramatic and disturbing ways, Dakota may have finally met her match. As the case grows more complex, leading down a maze of dead ends, Dakota realizes there may be one clue just out of reach. And after a shocking twist, Dakota realizes that this killer may not be who she thinks he is. He may just be far more diabolical. Yet Dakota must still battle her own demons—the disappearance of her sister, the estrangement of her father—as all of it bears down on her at once.
