#1 New York Times bestselling author  J. D. Robb presents the thrilling second novel in her In Death series. When technology can reveal the darkest of secrets, there’s only one place to hide a crime of passion—in the heart… 

The first victim was found lying on a sidewalk in the rain. The second was murdered in her own apartment building. Police Lieutenant Eve Dallas had no problem finding connections between the two crimes. Both victims were beautiful and highly successful women. Their glamorous lives and loves were the talk of the city. And their intimate relations with men of great power and wealth provided Eve with a long list of suspects—including her own lover, Roarke. As a woman, Eve was compelled to trust the man who shared her bed. But as a cop, it was her job to follow every lead...to investigate every scandalous rumor...to explore every secret passion, no matter how dark. Or how dangerous.

A whisper of uncivil war…

Dr. Kate Winter’s psychic gifts become the pathway and a sword. Her specialty is paranoid psychopathic narcissists.

Kate’s new client is the United States of America.

“My connections are deep and global. Kate’s connections are universal,” Clay said. Her partner in Security One and in life. But a woman with psychic abilities and flawless instincts, which traditionalists contend negate her advanced degrees, is less respected by the men who play spin the globe.

It will take a diverse array of Americans to fight the forces in power. Rousing the alt-White network of President John Jefferson Richards.

A wily enemy. The president’s plan was simple.

Use whatever you can. No matter the source. Get what you want.

No matter the cost.

Kate has faced ruthless murderers but never a psychopathic president at the nexus of world power and corruption.

A primal scream and a prayer. 

It’s not the imagined outcome. It’s the motive that offers leverage.

The lure of savage power. 

“To secure the existence of our people.” 

The first book in this series, Oops-A-Navy, is also discounted for a very short time.

It's de-SEALed Navy SEAL partners Shelby Ryder and Earl Bernstein's third mission, second opportunity to be re-SEALed and first chance to do something right. Oh, they've been in trouble with the government before, but this time if they fail, they'll face a firing squad.

The mission is simple enough. A key ally of the president of the United States has been murdered by the Dark Cowboy, a mysterious figure holed up in the Arizona mountains, and the president gives Shelby and Earl a deadline to bring him back to Washington dead or alive.

So, off the dedicated, if somewhat trigger-happy, pair venture into the sun-scorched, spooky Superstition Mountains, where they encounter dehydration, ghosts and just about everything but the Dark Cowboy. Now with time running out and the firing squad imminent, they realize they'll have to use more than their weaponry to complete the mission. They'll have to rely on their wits.

In other words, things don't look good.

THEY’LL ALWAYS HAVE PARIS…IF THEY CAN BOTH STAY ALIVE

CIA Agent Alejandro Cardenas fell for her the moment he took a pratfall in front of the Arc de Triomphe, a ploy to distract the guys tailing her. The action-packed but romantic protection assignment led to a steamy six-year affair, after which they parted, knowing they were soul mates, perfect for each other—except that each was married to someone else.

Ten years after Paris Alex, now a widower, is retired from the CIA. Julia, the beautiful lady from Paris, is a founding partner of a Chicago investment firm, currently handling the IPO for a Miami-based conglomerate. But the conglomerate is secretly owned by the Cuban government, which has used it for decades to launder the ill-gotten gains of a vast criminal empire that includes drug-smuggling, revolution for hire, and numerous other nefarious activities.

Julia’s rising financial stardom—along with Alex’s influence—bring her a high profile position in the Cuban-American community, but when a pair of Cuban generals undertake a massive assassination plot, Alex realizes he has placed her in danger. To protect the love of his life, he comes out of retirement and assembles the Alpha Team, a deadly tactical force of former associates.

As suave as he is deadly, Alex is a charming companion, whether author Parr is treating us to a tour of Parisian nightlife or a sampling of delectable Miami specialties. If you like political action thrillers like those by Brad Thor, James Rosone and Miranda Watson, Vince Flynn, and Robert Ludlum, you'll love Owen Parr!

If you lose a black cape, and can't go to the cops, then you come to me because that's what I do. I've been in the game for years. I know all the curves and all the angles, and if it gets rough then so be it, I got plenty strength, I'm double tough, and I never quit. And if need be I'll pull my artillery to get you some answers, because I don't care about the mistakes you've made or how you chose to live your life, sometimes even the unjust deserve a little justice.

At least that's how it was before a mysterious murder threatens to plunge Gold Coast City into a super powered war unless I find the killer in five days' time. But getting to the truth won't be so easy. I'll have to face ruthless black capes with secrets to hide, a powerful government agency bent on national expansion, and even teams of white caped heroes whose intentions are less than pure.

No easy task for a small time PI, so I'll need every bit of my strength and guts if I'm going to find the killer, save my city, and maybe even get some justice for the greatest hero the world has ever known.

The world runs on ARCs. Altered Reality Chips. Small implants behind the left ear that allow people to experience anything they could ever imagine. The network controls everything, from traffic, to food production, to law enforcement. Some proclaim it a Golden Age of humanity. Others have begun to see the cracks. Few realize that behind it all, living within every brain and able to control all aspects of society, there exists a being with an agenda all his own: the singularity called Adam, who believes he is God.

Jimmy Mahoney’s brain can’t accept an ARC. Not since his football injury from the days when the league was still offline. “ARC-incompatible” is what
the doctors told him. Worse than being blind and deaf, he is a man struggling to cling to what’s left of a society that he is no longer a part of. His wife spends twenty-three hours a day online, only coming off when her chip forcibly disconnects her so she can eat. Others are worse. Many have died, unwilling or unable to log off to take care of even their most basic needs.

After being unwittingly recruited by a rogue singularity to play a role in a war that he doesn’t understand, Jimmy learns the truth about Adam and is thrown into a life-and-death struggle against the most powerful mathematical mind the world has ever known. But what can one man do against a being that exists everywhere and holds limitless power? How can one man, unable to even get online, find a way to save his wife, and the entire human race, from destruction?

A hard-boiled PI novel for fans of Raymond Chandler, Ross MacDonald, and Dashiell Hammett.

Rick Cahill has long feared the truth about his own blood—the blood of his father coursing through his veins. When a long-hidden safe unlocks clues about why his father was kicked off the police force twenty-seven years ago and then spiraled into an early drunken death, Rick determines to find the truth even if it proves the one thing he's always feared. But as he grapples with his father's past, the woman he still loves pleads with him to find out if her husband is having an affair—or is involved in something much more sinister. Could the truth send her back into Rick’s arms? Would he have a last shot at happiness? He may never get the chance to find out, as killers who will do anything to protect their secrets lurk in the shadows.

Gage was everything I tried to stay away from.
Until I ran right to him...

I was alone for the entire summer.
The only plans I made involved my pool.
Then I saw my neighbor watching...
He was tall, dark, and gorgeously inked.
Did I mention hot? He was hot-as-sin.

It turned into a game.
He watched me. I watched him.
I teased him with the smallest swimsuits I could find.
He was on house arrest, so all he could do was stare...
Until he put his freedom on the line for what he wanted.

But there were things about Gage I didn't know.
His past was darker than he let on.
When it finally caught up with him,
I got caught in the crossfire.

He was the only one who could save me,
But that would cost him everything...

To call Gran eccentric is somewhat of an understatement. She has questionable fashion sense, cough, can anyone say bedazzled Ugg boots and a tutu? But my Gran? She is awesome. So when she suggested I buy The Dusty Attic Bookstore I was all in, after all, what could go wrong?

Try finding my high school nemesis dead on the floor of my newly acquired store for starters. Now I’m on the suspect list! Okay, so I just need to find the killer, clear my name, and pass my witches exam. Oh, didn’t I mention that? Yeah, seems the stunt I pulled on my cheating ex-fiancee cost me not only my job but my magic.

My name is Harper Jones and this is not how I expected my return to my magical hometown of Whitefall Cove to go.

Silly little Ava…she just can't seem to get it right.

Preston's the perfect boyfriend, until he's not. Miko's a nice replacement and is, surely, the one for Ava. He's hot—like Nordic god hot—a student at MIT, and her childhood sweetheart.

So why is she so inexplicably attracted to King…the bad boy? His stare burns through her; his presence captivates her. He brings out a passion she never knew she had…and emotions she can't understand.

She fights her feelings, trying to rationalize her life away…until one night changes everything. In the middle of a dance floor, she finds her hands all over his muscular body, her hair in his fist as he pulls her head back to ravish her neck…and she can't push him away anymore.

This book is for mature audiences.

A rebellious teen. A notorious crime boss. A private eye looking for justice.

Meet Drew Patrick, a smart, tough, and wisecracking detective who doesn't always play well with others.

When concerned single-mother Bonnie Ross hires private investigator Drew Patrick, it's because she fears a boy is leading her daughter Tina down the wrong path. The truth is much worse. Tina's boyfriend Aaron is working for a notorious crime boss whose brutal henchmen are leaving dead bodies in their wake. The danger intensifies as Aaron is pulled deeper into their crimes, and Drew must fight off the thugs sent to end his investigation. But there is no backing down as Drew must race against the clock to try to save Aaron from becoming the next murder victim.

Parker, Elvis Cole by Robert Crais, or Harry Bosch by Michael Connelly, then you'll love private eye Drew Patrick in this page-turning detective crime thriller series.

Hot Pursuit

A laugh-out-loud, enemies-to-lovers romance that's How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days meets White Collar with a dash of The Thomas Crown Affair thrown in!

All art thief Jolene Carter has ever wanted is a bakery of her own, and she won't let anyone get in the way of her dreams, especially not the distractingly delicious FBI agent hot on her tail.

Agent Nate Parker has been on the Carter case for years, and he won't let anything stand in the way of justice, especially not the red-headed vixen who keeps giving him the slip.

He's a cop who'd never bend. She's a con who'll never break. But all's fair in love and larceny...

Stolen Goods

Catch Me If You Can meets Tangled in this funny and feel-good adventurous romance!

When a devilishly handsome stranger saves Addison Abbot from two robbers with guns, she's determined to find her fairy tale ending--until she realizes he's the most wanted criminal in America.

Thaddeus Ryder was just another run-of-the-mill international art thief until his latest heist went south. But when hitmen for the Russian mafia interrupt his getaway, Thad gains an accidental companion--a baking beauty who might be too tempting to resist.

When a good girl meets a bad boy, sparks are bound to fly. But this con man is about to discover the only thing he can't steal is her heart...

Off the Grid

One part Pride and Prejudice. One part Romancing the Stone. All the feels.

Agent Leo Alvarez is on his way to Hawaii when his partner calls in a favor--the mob is after a pastry chef in New York City, and he's the only one who can get to her in time.

McKenzie Harper is a damsel in distress who doesn't need saving. But when three masked men kidnap her and throw her into the back of a van, that white knight suddenly doesn't seem so scary.

He's a cocky Fed with a killer smile. She's an uptown beauty with a biting tongue. If they want to survive, they'll have to learn to work together--assuming they don't kill each other first...

What's a witch to do when the meanest man in the county drops dead in his coleslaw during her shift at the local barbecue joint? Noelle does what any good Southern girl would do: she flicks a wrist to clean up the mess, then thanks the stars for doing the world a favor. She should have known nothing's that easy.

The Magical Oversight Committee is on her back because she can't keep her unruly little sister in line and the hunky new city-slicker sheriff would like to take her to dinner, except he suspects her of murder. To top it off, her cursed miniature donkey is being particularly calamitous and the old hens at the local beauty parlor are laying bets on her love life.

A skydiving best friend and a bossy, living-impaired aunt become the least of her worries when the killer decides to bump up the plan by bumping her off. Can she figure it out in time to save all that she holds dear, or will Noelle be next on the list of folks who've turned up dead?

If you like laugh-out-loud southern wit, magic, and murder, you'll fall in love with this witchy cozy mystery series!

Reclaiming Honor (The Way of Legend Book 1)

The story begins here!

Bestselling and award-winning author of STIGERS TIGERS and the KARUS SAGA, Marc Alan Edelheit has teamed up with national bestselling author Quincy J. Allen to deliver a fresh epic fantasy adventure, told from the perspective of dwarves. This action-packed series introduces a new hero, and fighter, Tovak Stonehammer.

The dwarven nations are facing extermination. Their ancient enemy has returned. The Horde is coming and, along with it, a dark tide is spreading across the world of Tanis. One by one, the free peoples of the world have fallen under a shadow, crushed by the merciless boot of the Horde.

The Syrulian Empire, the last buffer state between three dwarven nations and the advancing armies of the Horde, has fallen. Vastly outnumbered, the dwarves must undertake the Great March, uprooting their entire civilization in search of a new homeland. They hope to find a safe harbor beyond the reach of the enemy, for the nations are not strong enough to withstand the might of the Horde.

Every sword is needed.

A Pariah amongst his people, an outcast and undesirable, Tovak intends to serve and do his part. He must hide his true identity in hopes of making a name for himself and proving his worth. Punished for the actions of his father, something in which he had no part, he has suffered one setback, one injustice after another. Yet his faith in Thulla—the rejected god of his people—is strong and has kept him going. Tovak has pursued his dream of serving his people and working towards the day when he will be able to cast off the mantle of Pariah and build Legend of his own.

Bearing the burden of his people’s disdain and his family’s disgrace, Tovak has joined a warband. Armed with his faith, determination, and courage, he must face heartless comrades, deadly monsters, and the enemy who would like nothing better than to place any dwarf’s head on a stake.

Will Tovak rise to the occasion? Or will he falter and fall before the blades of the Horde or, worse, his own comrades when they discover the truth? Tovak must find a way to reclaim his honor and prove his worth. All the while, he might also be the key to his people’s salvation, or perhaps even their downfall … for a true god has taken an interest in him and his future. The path of destiny lies before him and so too does the Way of Legend.

Set upon the world of Tannis, some years before the arrival of Karus and the Lost Legio IX, this book is a Last War Novel.

Homecoming for Christmas

Eight years after fleeing Christmas Mountain because of a high school prank gone wrong, Ashley Brooks receives a mysterious letter from her mentor asking her to come home. She arrives to face all she left behind—her family, her friends, and the rich boy she’d loved who would never date the girl from the wrong side of town.

Both search for a secluded spot to mourn their Christmas pasts, but instead are snowed in at the cabin for the holiday where they discover the power of the Christmas spark.

His Holiday Promise

Mary Clayton believed in the promises made by her charming late husband. She believed he’d love, protect, honor and cherish her. Instead, he stole her fortune and repeatedly hurt her, leaving her in poverty when he died.

Mary spent years battling her way back into the life she inherited from her family and has made it a rule to trust no man. But sometimes the heart ignores the rules…especially in the case of handsome widower Fredrick Krause and his tempting holiday promise of a sweet happily ever after.

But can Mary let go of her fear and learn to love again? If she can’t, she may well lose the only man who has ever truly made her feel safe and loved.
