From the NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR who has been featured in Cosmopolitan, Newsweek, Glamour, USA Today, and Huffington Post comes an enchanting romance filled with flirty banter and copious amounts of yearning. Prepare yourself to swoon! Reign Tryst is a vampire, and like most vampires who are of a certain age, ahem, give or take a century, he’s grown bored. Restless. He’s been there, seen it all, and little excites him anymore. Except… the very off-limits, very human young assistant he hires to curate his personal library, Tressa Porter. Long dormant feelings he hasn’t felt in ages spring to life. How very curious. He’s never needed anything like the sudden and demanding need he has to taste her. Reign has a life-or-death decision to make—deny his instincts and send her away, or satisfy his cravings and hope he doesn’t destroy the one thing he holds most precious of all.

As a serial killer terrorizes New Orleans, a reluctant psychic sees every gruesome act in this thriller by the #1 New York Times bestselling author. A woman's burned and brutalized corpse is found in a seedy New Orleans apartment. Her killer is certain there were no witnesses, unaware that his every move was seen by a beautiful stranger—through nightmarish visions that came to her in bed in a bayou cottage on the outskirts of town. Weeks later, another terrifying vision shatters Olivia Bechet's sleep. Convinced a serial killer is stalking the city, she turns to the authorities. But jaded detective Rick Bentz doesn't believe her—even when a second body turns up, slain in exactly the same bizarre, ritualistic manner Olivia described. As New Orleans panics in the grip of a merciless killer, Olivia is frustrated by Bentz's skepticism. And yet she is also captivated by her attraction to him. But then her dreams are invaded by a murder that has yet to be committed. This time, Olivia recognizes the victim—and the murderer. And both are closer than she ever imagined.

The disappearance of fabulously rich Chicago candy heiress Helen Brach and the suspicious deaths of a string of champion racehorses are linked in a celebrated scandal that has reverberated through every level of the glamorous enclaves of thoroughbred horse breeding. When widowed heiress Helen Brach suddenly disappeared on the morning of February 17, 1977, after a visit to the Mayo Clinic, she left behind a lavender Rolls-Royce, Cadillacs in red, pink, and coral, an eighteen-room mansion, and a fortune now estimated at $75 million. She also left behind a mystery that would tantalize investigators for years. When Assistant US Attorney Steven Miller assigned himself the challenge of solving the Brach case, he never imagined an investigation of the horse world would lead to a charming gigolo named Richard Bailey who made a career of romancing wealthy women out of huge sums of money, a shadowy figure called The Sandman who made his living by killing priceless horses so that their owners could collect insurance, and the ghastly murder of three children in 1955.
