Colton Mountain Search - Karen Whiddon

Their search for a killer at large... becomes too personal.

A mountain hike turns tragic as Della Winslow’s search and rescue dog discovers a serial killer’s burial site. Enter FBI agent Max Colton, who comes back to town to solve the case and get rid of his playboy reputation. He’s just what the dedicated dog trainer doesn’t need — or want. But when she discovers her cousin was one of the killer’s victims, Della must work with Max to solve the case... and try to resist the electric attraction between them.

Defender After Dark - Charlene Parris

A Nordic beauty... might hold the key to his case!

When a ruthless CEO is assaulted at his own construction site late at night, Detective Mark Hawthorne is determined to catch the person responsible. He finds a welcome distraction from the case in captivating bakery owner Britt Gronlund, who rebuffed the CEO’s threat to take over her business. But when the CEO winds up dead, Mark needs to find out who killed him. Can he defend Britt from the accusations that she is behind the murder? And can the two of them find the real killer?
