The last thing Addy Davidson wants is to be on a reality TV show where the prize is a prom date with the President’s son. She’s focused on her schoolwork so she can get a scholarship to an Ivy League college, uncomfortable in the spotlight, never been on a date, and didn’t even audition for it. But she got selected anyway. So she does her best to get eliminated on the very first show. Right before she realizes that the President’s son is possibly the most attractive guy she has ever seen in person, surprisingly nice, and seemingly unimpressed by the 99 other girls who are throwing themselves at him. Addy’s totally out of her comfort zone but that may be right where God can show her all that she was meant to be.

You're invited to celebrate Sasha and Leo's tenth anniversary ... it's going to be a killer party. Ten years ago, Sasha and Leo’s wedding turned bloody when armed mercenaries stormed the remote eco-resort and took the couple and their guests hostage. In the end, love won, and the pair made it down the aisle. Now, a decade later, they gather eight of their closest friends to celebrate their tenth wedding anniversary and ring in the new year at an exclusive estate. But within hours of their arrival, a fierce winter storm rolls in, cutting them off from the outside world. Their estate hosts are off the property when the weather hits, which means it's just the anniversary party and one other group—ten old college pals having their annual holiday reunion. Sasha, Leo, and their crew have managed much worse, so they hunker down to make the best of it. Then, a guest in the reunion group is murdered. With no way to get help, a killer on the prowl, and a sinking feeling that the wrong group may have been targeted, Sasha, Leo, and their friends have no choice but to confront the danger head-on and solve the mystery themselves. The Anniversary Party is a sharp, suspenseful, and twisty mystery in which every move counts and every offhand remark might be a clue. It’ll keep you guessing until the very end. This book features some of the author's most beloved characters, including Sasha McCandless-Connelly and Leo Connelly, Aroostine Higgins, Bodhi King, and Maisy Farley, along with several other familiar faces. Fans of Knives Out and Glass Onion will love this modern take on the closed circle mystery, with a wisecracking married couple and their fiercely loyal friend group at the center of the action.

Big secrets run deep. Former FBI agent Jack McBride took the job as Chief of Police for Stillwater, Texas, to start a new life with his teenage son, Ethan, away from the suspicions that surrounded his wife’s disappearance a year earlier. With a low crime rate and a five-man police force, he expected it to be a nice, easy gig; hot checks, traffic violations, some drugs, occasional domestic disturbances, and petty theft. Instead, within a week he is investigating a staged murder-suicide, uncovering a decades’ old skeleton buried in the woods, and managing the first crime wave in thirty years. For help navigating his unfamiliar, small-town surroundings, Jack turns to Ellie Martin, one of the most respected women in town—her scandal-filled past notwithstanding. Despite Jack's murky marriage status and the disapproval of Ethan and the town, they are immediately drawn to each other. As Jack and Ellie struggle with their budding relationship, they unearth shattering secrets long buried and discover the two cases Jack is working, though fifty years apart, share a surprising connection that will rattle the town to its core.

Job hunting is a deadly sport. Deandra “Dee” Hendricks is settling into her new life in Axia. She’s got her trusty baby dragon, Havoc, by her side; is sharing an apartment with her best friend and roommate, Wendy; and even has her first pet-sitting client. Things are looking up! Shortly after launching her new website, Dee receives an invitation to a pet-sitter happy hour where she meets Sarah, the owner of Axia’s largest pet-sitting operation. Other attendees include sole proprietors, like Dee, and a few of Sarah’s employees. Everyone is welcoming and willing to share advice—mainly to steer clear of their notorious fellow sitter, Lydia Monroe. They accuse Lydia of everything—from magically manipulating her animal charges and poaching clients from Sarah to making false claims about possessing “zoolingual” abilities. The sticking point is Lydia’s questionable acquisition of a lucrative gig offered by Oleander Basnet, a yeti whose son needs one-on-one care. Sarah’s company fought hard for the opportunity, only to have yet another job snatched away by Lydia. The peaceful get-together is interrupted when a late arrival informs the group that Lydia has been found murdered. Worse still, the time of death doesn’t exonerate anyone at the event. Dee fears she’s just shared discounted appetizers with a murderer. Later that night, a job offer from Oleander hits Dee’s inbox. Dee’s wallet desperately wants her to take the job, but could there be someone in town so desperate to beat the competition that they murdered Lydia? And could Dee be next?
