Emma Parks is the spoiled youngest daughter of a disgraced congressman who's looking for a way to break free of her debutante life of privilege and power. She is not prepared for the harsh realities that come with life in Child Protective Services: abuse, anger, hate, and murder. Her new bosses seem to hate her and her family cuts her off, and her new life is going off the rails until a chance encounter with a young homicide detective. Can she save him after a tragic officer-involved shooting and maybe, just maybe, find their happily ever? This is the first of the Emma Parks series, followed by "Saturday's Child" and "Emma Forgiven."

If you like Agatha Christie, then you'll love Robert Thorogood. Seconded from rainy London to the sweltering heat of the Caribbean island of Saint Marie, DI Richard Poole would rather be having a pint at his local pub. But when a body is discovered at the Beaumont plantation, DI Poole must put aside his woes and solve the murder. Despite the fact the victim was found in a locked room holding a smoking gun, Poole is convinced this is not a suicide. When another body turns up the hunt is on for the killer, and the evasive Beaumont family are – rather suspiciously – no help at all... The third novel in the Death in Paradise Mysteries is perfect for fans of T. E. Kinsey, Heron Carvic and Caroline Graham. Praise for Robert Thorogood ‘Death in Paradise feels like a ray of sunshine’ Mirror ‘Plenty of red herrings and twists to keep readers guessing’ Daily Express ‘A treat’ Radio Times

“What possible history could you have with this one girl?” I heard the sound of the blade cut the air, but I also heard shortly after a small laugh coming from the old woman. “'Your toys do not threaten me.” “Fix her.” “And unlike your toys, she is not one of them. She cannot simply be fixed on the spot like you ask.” The old lady lifted her glasses from off her chest and onto her face at the tip of her nose. She bent her head down to my neck and placed her hand there. She leaned back to her straightened position. “I’m sorry, I cannot—” The blade slammed down onto the table, and the sound of a large thump echoed the small room. His voice was very threatening as each word spilled out of his mouth with hatred. “Do something.” The Chinese lady tilted her head almost in inquisition. “Who is she to you?” “No one.” “Oh, she is someone indeed. What is her name?” “Katie, but she likes to be called another name.” “Which is what?” “Kay.” He tried to avoid saying. “Kay what?” The lady continued, determined to find the motive behind this guy’s actions. “Kay Wormwood,” he submitted. He knows me?

What happens when a woman on the run ends up married to the richest man in Texas? Keely O’Brien has spent the past five months on the run, but no matter what she does, she can’t seem to evade the ring of dangerous criminals that killed her brother in Chicago. When she spots an ad for a wife from the owner of a small ranch on a remote stretch of Texan desert, she knows she’s found the perfect hiding spot. The Wolf Point Ring might be searching far and wide for her, but they wouldn’t think to look in tiny, sun-scorched town of Twin Rivers, Texas. Now if she can just keep her new husband from finding out why she really married him… Agamemnon “Wes” Westin’s feet might be firmly planted in West Texas soil, but his heart is running… Running from the loss of his first wife and stillborn daughter, and running from the fear of suffering loss again. Unfortunately, he has little choice about needing to marry, but he does have a choice about who he marries. If he has to share his roof with someone, he wants a woman who works hard and doesn’t complain. That’s why he decides to run an ad for a bride, claiming that he owns a small ranch, rather than the sprawling cattle empire he inherited from his father. After all, what woman is going to be upset when she finds out her husband is one of the richest men in Texas? When Wes discovers Keely is hiding from criminals who want her dead, he can’t help but protect her—even if she’s irate with him for lying about the size of his ranch. When danger arrives in Twin Rivers, both Wes and Keely find themselves facing their deepest fears. Will they let their pain and past losses ruin their dreams? Or will Wes and Keely find a way to forge a new life together? From jagged mountains and green river valleys, to cattle ranches and vivid sunsets, Tomorrow’s Constant Hope offers a meaningful story about simpler times, sincere faith, and learning to love again after loss.
