Discover book 1 of the all-new small-town romantic suspense series set in Sanctuary Falls, by USA Today bestselling author, Katie Reus!

Someone is trying to frame her for murder.

When Berkley Knight wakes up in a dead man’s house with no memory of how she got there, she runs. Given her checkered past, she doesn’t trust the cops, so she calls her brother for help. They retrace her steps, trying to figure out who could have dumped her there and why. But when they start digging, they wind up with even more questions—and in more danger.

He’ll do whatever it takes to clear her name.

Unfortunately, the same thing happens again, only this time Berkley wakes up in her murdered ex-husband’s house. Now she’s the prime suspect and soon realizes that whoever is terrorizing her, is attempting to systematically destroy her life. The one thing she never imagined was turning to her enemy for help, but Nick Storm is exactly who she needs to fight the maniac who’s terrorizing her. It turns out the danger is much closer than either of them realize. And the only way they will both survive is to trust each other.

To maintain her cover and keep her family off her back, they fake a relationship.

Having spent her whole life trying to prove she’s just as capable as her three older brothers, art retrieval expert Ivy Danger has landed the biggest gig of her career, one that will pay off the mortgage of the animal shelter she owns. That is, if she doesn’t die before finishing the job. Even if she locates the stolen art, the violent gang of thieves won’t give up their million-dollar payday without a fight. She has one person she can turn to for help—Nash Harris. Security expert, her brother’s best friend…and the gorgeous man of her fantasies who treats her like a kid sister. Not that she’d do anything about her attraction anyway—not when it would screw up her family dynamic if things went sideways between them.

Now it’s impossible to tell what’s real and what’s not.

Despite having known Ivy forever, “brotherly” is the last thing Nash feels for the sexy troublemaker. She’s it for him. The One. He’s known it for a while…but convincing Ivy is another matter. When they have to fake a relationship for her current job, things shift between them. They’ve worked together before, but she’s in over her head with this latest job. But before anything can come of it, he’ll have to keep her alive when she’s targeted by a dangerous group known for violent retaliation. Nash will do whatever it takes to keep her safe, to prove she can trust him—on the job, with her life, and with her heart.

Red Stone Security, #17

I heard my sister being murdered over the phone.

It was staged to look like a robbery gone wrong, but in her last moments, she was betrayed by someone she knew. Someone who had access to her home. Now her three girls are going to grow up without a mom, and I’ve lost the only person who’s ever been there for me.

And I’m going to find her killer.

Someone in my sister’s exclusive neighborhood killed her. The police are following their leads and I’m following mine. Unlike the detectives on her case, I don’t have to follow the rules. And the closer I get to discovering who the killer is, the more the danger grows, for me and everyone around me. If I don’t figure out who to trust, and fast, I’ll end up just like my sister.

Some secrets keep you safe…

Adeline Rodriguez left her violent past behind, buried her secrets and started over in Verona Bay. Now a successful co-owner in a local pet grooming business, she’s made a life for herself in this idyllic community, and has real friends. Thanks to her past, the only thing she hasn’t mastered yet is a real relationship. And when circumstances lead her to finally let her guard down with sexy Mac Collins, he completely ghosts her. Her first instinct is to close herself off again, but she decides to confront him instead—and that fateful decision puts her directly in the crosshairs of a killer.

Others can destroy you…

Mac has wanted Adeline since the moment they met, but she made it clear that she didn’t want a relationship. So he kept his distance. When they’re trapped together in a remote cabin, things change between them. But Mac’s past has come back to haunt him, so he pushes her away to protect her. Unfortunately, it’s already too late. Adeline is now a target too. To save her, Mac has no choice except to end the threat. Only then can he try to win over the woman he can’t live without. But winning over the feisty Adeline might prove to be harder than stopping a killer.

FULL DESCRIPTION COMING SOON.

She never wanted fame…

After a video of her modeling her friend’s new clothing line goes viral, Gia suddenly finds herself thrust into the spotlight. She never wanted fame—she was just having fun and helping a friend. Unfortunately now she’s got a target on her back. Someone out there will do anything to destroy her. Someone who wants her dead.

Now she’s paying the price…

As his best friend’s sister, Gia is off limits. She’s also the woman of Lawson’s dreams—and hottest fantasies. When she’s targeted by a vicious stalker, all bets are off. As a Red Stone Security expert, he’ll keep her safe at any cost. What he doesn’t know is how he’s going to keep her out of his bed, because he’s never wanted anyone as badly as he wants her. He’s all about rules—it’s why he’s such a good bodyguard—while she seems determined to test his control at every step. But if they want to survive, they’ll have to work together to stop the killer…before it’s too late.

Her friend has disappeared…

Clover is convinced that a low-life criminal hurt her friend—or worse—and she refuses to let it go. Even if that means walking into a nest of vipers. She knows how to wear a mask. She’s been doing it most of her life. So she gets a job at the man’s bar to study his operation and find out what happened to her friend. To her never-ending annoyance, she’s forced to turn to the irresistible hacker who tempts her on every level—even if she can never have him.

And she’s going to find her no matter what…

Micah Knight isn’t sure when it happened, but he’s fallen hard for the innocent-looking Clover who’s anything but. Unfortunately she won’t listen to reason, won’t let him just do his job and investigate the man she thinks made her friend disappear. Making things even more complicated, the suspect is an informant for the Feds, so they have to tread carefully. But it turns out the truth is far bigger, stranger and more dangerous than either of them could have imagined. And it’s going to take everything they have to survive the coming storm.
