Girlfriend Killer

James Alan Ross

Enduring the turmoil after her son Preston’s passing prompts Sandra Cruz to evaluate her life. Although she’s loved building Cruz Development into one of Florida’s most successful businesses, she decides that time spent in her office has pulled her away from what truly matters: family. 
Joining with Charles—her ex-husband and new boyfriend—Sandra has combined her business skills with her passion for romance. Together, they created Simply Splendid Proposals, a company men hire to stage and film elaborate marriage proposals. It seems nothing could be better than documenting the happiest moments of people’s lives. But then again… not every proposal ends with a ‘yes.’ And when a broken-hearted Emerson Banes mistakes Sandra’s thoughtful consoling for something more, his darkest secrets quickly turn her and her family’s life into a living nightmare.

Treacherous Tides The: A Cozy...

Hoang Nguyen

🌊 The remote Seabreeze Point Lighthouse has a new keeper: marine biologist Dr. Cora Seabrook, who moved to the small coastal town for peace and quiet. But her peaceful life shatters when a body washes ashore during a fierce storm—the town's most disliked historian, who was trying to have the lighthouse decommissioned. The police call it a tragic accident, but Cora finds a clue in the lighthouse lens: a piece of a ship's log that shouldn't be there. When she realizes the lighthouse lamp was deliberately misaligned the night of the death, she knows it was murder. With help from her loyal seal, Finn, and the lighthouse's enigmatic volunteer, a man with his own connection to the sea, Cora delves into the town's history. She uncovers a riptide of motives, from stolen shipwreck treasures and forged historical documents to a century-old feud between lighthouse families. As another storm traps her in the lighthouse with a potential killer, Cora must navigate the treacherous waters of suspicion before the killer silences her for good.
