Summary

Description:
On the night she wins the prestigious Young Artist Award, Selene's triumph is hijacked. The host, Cyrus, unveils a 'surprise'—the biological parents who abandoned her as an infant, now weeping on stage to claim her success. They try to bind her with the chains of filial duty and public shame. But Selene has a secret weapon: she plays by their rules, only better. With the cameras rolling and the world watching, she masterfully turns their emotional manipulation against them. What begins as a tearful plea for reunion spirals into a spectacular showdown of reverse psychological warfare. Selene is determined to protect the only father she's ever known—the man who rescued her from a snowbank—and she'll use every tool, including their own toxic guilt, to do it. A sharp, suspenseful tale of justice, family, and the art of fighting fire with fire.

What would you do if your brother was accused of a horrible crime, and you were certain he didn’t do it? Life is not done throwing Eva Rae Thomas curveballs. A phone call turns her life upside down - once again. The call is from her father, the man she hasn’t seen in 36 years, not since he kidnapped her sister in a supermarket. Now, he is back in Florida, and he needs her help. Her younger brother - who she didn’t know existed - has been arrested on Amelia Island. The boy is in a coma after being shot by an officer during the incident. But his father doesn’t believe the police, and he asks for Eva Rae’s help to prove it. At the same time, a serial killer is planning one of the most horrific mass killings in history. Will Eva Rae find it in her heart to help her father after what he did to her? Will facing him again set her free or pull her under? Say You Love Me is the fourth book in the Eva Rae Thomas Mystery Series and can be listened to as a stand-alone.

    After watching his yacht burn to the waterline in a fiery explosion, Jerry Snyder is forced to make a deal with the only devil who can help track down a lead—his estranged, mob-connected father figure, Arlen Burkhart. 
    The investigation starts on unsure footing, and Jerry’s deal with Arlen goes from bad to worse when, at a funeral held on a private Caribbean island where the uber-wealthy have met to pay respects to one of their own, bodies begin to wash up at Jerry's feet like fish on a red tide. 
    In this luxurious tropical paradise, murder, blackmail, and deceit are the name of the game, and secrets are as abundant as sins. Before Jerry can determine who is trying to kill the funeral attendees, he'll not only have to risk his life, but he’ll also have to confront a past which threatens to claim his very soul.

The beggar is arrested, but a few days later St. Clair's wife receives a letter from her husband.
