  When you’re a hostage of your own nightmare... 
  As the Shadow Island Historical Society prepares to raise funds to restore the island’s beloved lighthouse, someone else has other lethal plans. Instead of the presentation the group hopes for, they attract the attention of a madman claiming the historic monument is his family legacy before firing several shots and barricading the doors. 
  Now, one hostage is dying and the rest fear for their lives. 
  Interim Sheriff Rebecca West is no hostage negotiator, but she’ll do whatever it takes to ensure the elderly captives are safely released. Especially when the perp turns out to be a local boy recently released from the mental hospital where he’d been committed since his mother abandoned him and his father. By all accounts, he’s disturbed but harmless. 
  Or is he? 
  He’s making outlandish assertions about the disappearance of his mother that don’t make sense. And identifying missing persons who disappeared miles away. Are these accusations merely the delusions of mentally unstable man? Or is something more nefarious going on? 
  From its shocking beginning to the jaw-dropping conclusion, Shadow’s Hostage—the sixth book in the Shadow Island Series by Mary Stone and Lori Rhodes—will make you realize we all see what we want to see, even if it’s not true.

  Marina: If I hear the name Chiral Hall again, it will be too soon. He is the one person at Ballad U that I can't stand and it's just my luck that my besties are dating his. Just when I think things can't get worse, I get suckered into tutoring him for the rest of the semester. Most would buckle under the pressure I'm constantly under but I've recently found a good stress reliever. When I started my Main Fan's account it was just a way to pay for my education, I wasn't expecting him. 
   
   
   
  Chiral: I feel like I'm a pretty decent guy so I don't understand why Marina avoids me like you would the locker room full of hockey players after a grueling practice. No matter her reasons, I plan to break down her walls in any way possible because of that feeling in my gut. The feeling that is telling me once she lets you in, it's game over and I'm okay with that. Marina is the type of girl that you would move hell and earth for just for a genuine smile and to see the sparkle in her eyes that at times is shadowed with sadness from her past. It may not be right but when I find her Main Fans account, I can't pass up the chance to connect with her on a different level. When everything is on the line? You have to take that scoring chance.

  The Final Ledger - In a world...

  The math is bleeding. The foundation is a lie. 
  For twenty-six years, Render Auditor Bryony Bracken worshipped the flawless arithmetic of the Lex Engine. In the towering, sterile tiers of the Crucible, human emotion is a taxable offense, and survival is purchased with suffering. Bryony's job was simple: balance the ledgers and punish the anomalies. But when she uncovers a microscopic discrepancy hidden in the deepest layers of the system's foundational code, she shatters a prime encryption to find a horrifying truth. The Engine isn't fair. It is a predatory mechanism rigged to harvest the souls of the marginalized. 
  Now a traitor to the highest authorities of the ruling class, Bryony flees into the unmapped, deadly fringes of the digital purgatory with an explosive data drive. There, she discovers the impossible: the Ghost-Tier sanctuary. An off-grid rebellion where people live, love, and exist without a Render score. At the heart of it all is Flynn Decker—a man the system refuses to recognize, and the first person to look at Bryony not as an equation, but as a woman. 
  The Final Ledger, the gripping third volume in Joseph Pepe's The Weight of Rendered Souls, is a devastating descent into cyberpunk dystopia, dark romance, and psychological suspense. As the Lex Proxies hunt her down and the spark between Bryony and Flynn ignites into a dangerous flame, she must decide whether to save her mathematically perfect universe—or burn it to the ground.

  With her aunt taking a well-earned break, Abby is juggling two businesses at once—managing Primrose House B&B while growing her new catering company. But when she arrives to deliver lunch to one of her regular clients, she stumbles upon something far worse than an empty stomach. 
   
   
   
  The victim's home has been ransacked, and a valuable artifact stolen. As Abby gets pulled into the investigation, it becomes clear that this isn't just a simple break-in gone wrong—someone in Sugar Creek is willing to kill to keep their secrets safe. But was the murder tied to the stolen treasure . . . or something far more personal? 
   
   
   
  Running a small business is complicated enough—but dating the town's sheriff makes things even trickier. Abby and Ryan are finally together, but that doesn't mean they see eye to eye—especially when her sleuthing starts making headlines. Between managing the B&B, untangling a mystery, and keeping her business afloat, Abby has enough on her plate without also being Sugar Creek's favorite topic of gossip. 
   
   
   
  With friendships tested, old grudges resurfacing, and danger creeping closer, Abby must uncover the truth before she becomes the next piece of Sugar Creek's history to disappear.
