  📚 When rare books start disappearing from the Cedar Grove Library, head librarian Agatha Page knows something is terribly wrong. But when a wealthy book collector is found stabbed with a priceless antique letter opener in the rare books room, the quiet library becomes the center of a murder investigation. Suspicion falls on Agatha when police discover she's the last person who checked out the missing volumes. To clear her name, Agatha must use her extensive knowledge of library systems and literary history to track down both the stolen books and the killer. With help from her book club members and a charming local historian, Agatha follows clues hidden in due date stamps, catalog numbers, and even the Dewey Decimal system. But as she gets closer to the truth, she uncovers a sophisticated theft ring operating within the library's peaceful walls—and the real killer is ready to close the book on her investigation permanently.

  Rainie Todd was a hot mess, the poster child for dysfunction; however, from the outside, she appeared beautiful, successful, and together. The last thing she wanted was a relationship. She’d been there and done that, and it didn’t end well. Dr. Michael Landry was a nice guy, someone to date as a friend for great dinners and the occasional cocktail party. He certainly didn’t give off any vibes that ignited her sexually, but he was a good friend; that was until the night of his company party when he turned up the heat, revealing a side of him she’d never seen, and she lusted with intrigue. He was perhaps the most sexually stimulating man she’d ever met. The icing on the cake- he was in love with her from the first time they met. 
  The relationship hinged on the truths behind their dark secrets. Rainie opened up to Michael about her ex-husband’s wanton affairs and how it had pushed her off the rails onto a twisted path of drugs, alcohol, and reckless behavior. One wrong decision after another landed her in the midst of a cartel drug operation, endangering everyone she loved. Of all her secrets, the one she held closest to her heart was Rand-her deceased twin, who still lived on from beyond the grave. Michael opened his heart, embraced her past challenges, and confided in his need for ultimate control and a past predilection for BDSM. Once they revealed their pasts, the doors opened for steamy interludes and a deep, forever kind of love.
