Having left a problematic relationship behind in Manhattan, architect Dani moves upstate with her new husband to renovate an old modernist house. The shock of discovering him dead in the hall and Dani’s subsequent grieving are quickly punctuated by disturbing discoveries. Why did the previous owners suffer a suspicious downfall? Perhaps several break-in attempts at the house are related. Someone also appears to be stalking Dani. Could it be the jogger she sees at night? Is she the lady in the lamplight? Dani fears these unsettling individuals are connected to her husband’s murder. But how? When her husband’s wealthy, but shady, brother, Paul offers to move in to help, Dani wonders about an ulterior motive. Suppressing buried desires, she is drawn to the similarities between Paul and her husband. Visits from her old partner only add to her problems, particularly the irritating memory block surrounding their past.

Book excerpt: “The entire Hale Street series receives my highest praise.”—Reader review Bartender Kennedy’s new boss has her both shaken and stirred. Barmaid Asia strives to keep her past a secret from a sexy but persistent CEO. Entertainment manager Sloan helps a grieving drummer find a second chance…and more. Immerse yourself in Amy Knupp’s first three Hale Street stories instantly! SWEET SPOT: A bartender, a bakery girl, and a past full of mistakes… Former marketing whiz Kennedy Lowell knows bartending isn’t her destiny. After derailing her life to epic proportions, though, she’s content with the easy refuge of pouring drinks and keeping to herself. But the arrival of her sexy new boss has her both shaken and stirred. Add the temptation of a bakery in need of a marketing guru and Kennedy begins to wonder if easy is all it’s cracked up to be. Easy is Hunter Clayborne’s middle name. Uncomplicated is what he expects when he moves back to Nashville to take over the family business. What he finds is the polar opposite of easy—a bar losing money, a family entrenched in its old-fashioned ways, and an irresistible bartender who keeps him at a distance in spite of their sizzling mutual attraction. Hunter tries to prove he’s a good-hearted, trustworthy guy, but what if Kennedy is her own worst enemy? Can he help her see herself through his eyes before it’s too late? SOFT SPOT: It’s all fun and games until the sexy CEO wants to know her secrets… Asia Knowles’ life has been on a downhill slide for as long as she can remember, but with her promotion and her new apartment on charming Hale Street, things are finally starting to look up. When polished and persistent and tough-to-resist Jackson barges into her world, Asia does what she can to keep her less-than-sparkling background to herself. CEO Jackson Lowell has worked hard for everything he has—perhaps a little too single-mindedly. When a friend challenges him to go on a “real” date, not a business function with a blind date, Asia seems like the perfect choice. Everything from her sunshine-bright outfits to her don’t-get-too-close vibe draws him in. Asia finds it hard to ignore Jackson’s charm, but she’s conditioned to keep her secrets close to her chest. The more she shuts him out, the more determined he becomes to get to know her anyway. If she finally lets him in, will he cut his losses or realize the biggest payoff ever? ONE AND ONLY: Second-best will never be good enough. Drummer Micah Sullivan lost his music and his dreams when his wife died unexpectedly. In the aftermath, he quit his band and pushed away family and friends. Three years later, he’s opened a music shop and tells himself he’s content trying to make it a hit. What he failed to consider is that success requires connections—including the very ones he turned his back on. When Sloan McGuire takes a job at a bar as the entertainment manager, she doesn’t expect to run into Micah, whose late wife was her best friend. She can tell he’s still lost in grief, and out of love for her friend, she resolves to help him find peace. What she and Micah find together, though, has the potential to be something more. Sloan fights the attraction, not only because of their history but because she’s always been second fiddle. To Micah, a solo act seems safer than a duet, but with Sloan, he develops a new appreciation for harmony. Music may be his forte, but can he find the words to convince her she’s his one and only?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From USA Today Bestselling Author, Morgan Jane Mitchell comes the next installment in her Royal Bastards MC: Nashville, TN, Lovin Opry. I'm Leo, just nineteen. I ain't got nobody or nothin', except for the skin I'm in and the moves I make on the pole at the Royal Bastards MC clubhouse, Royal Road. My life's all about neon lights, body glitter, and dreams that spin 'round fast. But everything gets twisted when I start catchin' feelings for Opry, my boss - the tatted up, cowboy-hat-wearing biker twice my age. Me and Opry? We ain't your typical couple. It's a "situationship", like twerking to a steel guitar- seems all wrong but feels so right. A dom with a taste for a world of kink, the biker's as tough and tantalizing as an unsolved mystery. And boy, has he got commitment issues. Lovin’ Opry’s a tough ride, but this gal right here is all about the thrill. The catch? He doesn't vibe with me outside our shared bedroom. Our convos are like tryna blend country twang with a hip-hop beat. When he starts acting all distant, like he's losin' interest, I hit the road. I thought I could just peace out, leave the cowboy in my rearview. Thought I could ghost the biker who's little bark and all bite. I should have known better. Name's Opry. Got this young firecracker, Leo, lightin' up our stage, movin' like a wild storm under the club lights. The little filly gets under my skin, makes a home there, and just when I think I got a handle on things, it all goes to hell. I've been around, seen things that'd make most men quake, and it's hardened me. I've ridden with the reaper, stared down danger more times than I can count, but the depth of my feelings for Leo? Terrifying. She senses me pullin' away, and just like that, she's gone. Thought I could let her go, let her become a memory, drowned out by the rumble of this fast life. But once her laughter stops echoing through my clubhouse, I’m punched with a hurt worse than a busted rib - I miss the hell out of my little dancer. Come New Year's Eve, I know I gotta get her back. Don't matter what it takes, I gotta make it right, bring her back into my world, our world. Whether she likes it or not.
