Summary

1975 was shaping up to be Joe Holland's year. Everything was clicking into place. In the first few months he'd passed his driving test, completed his electrical apprenticeship and was approaching his twenty first birthday, when he'd gain access to his deceased grandfather's inheritance money. Apart from his toxic relationship with his stepfather, life was good. But in May, a family skeleton came rattling out of the cupboard where it had been hidden for decades. Joe was to learn that every tree, including a family tree, was only as strong (or weak) as it's roots. And his was about to come toppling down. Once over the initial shock, his search for answers, and resolution, would take him from the leafy suburbs of Hertfordshire to the mean streets of New York City, and a date with destiny.

Fans of atmospheric and moody mm romance, a gripping mystery suspense series you won't be able to put down! There is a dog, it does not die. 
Bitter and disillusioned, Niall Hamarsson officially quits everything and retreats to the only place he's ever called home, Piedras Island. His plan for the future is vague, but other humans aren't included. 
Apparently, 'no humans' doesn't extend to Mat Dempsey. 
Mat Dempsey is a glass-half-full kind of guy. He returned to Piedras after the death of his father, who'd been the sheriff for years. He didn't intend to step into his father's boots, but that's what happened. Is he satisfied? Mostly. 
Days after Niall's arrival, a young woman's body is discovered in the local marina. It's murder. He's not under suspicion, but Dempsey orders him to stay away from the investigation. He doesn't need Niall muddying the waters. 
Will his childhood home give Niall the space he needs to lower the walls he's built around himself and heal from his tragic past? Will Mat overcome his guilt about the past so they can move forward? 
The truth is murder. 
Veiled Intentions is a dual POV, slow-burn, romantic suspense set in three parts with an additional short novel. The romances continue in the West Coast Forensics and Subtle Deceptions series.
