Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Two sisters-in-law find themselves at painful odds when the man who connects them-the brother of one, the husband of the other-is accused of a brutal crime in this twisty thriller from the author of the "exceedingly entertaining" (The New York Times) The Family Plot. Julia and Sienna Larkin are sisters-in-law, connected by Julia's husband and Sienna's brother, Jason. More than that, the two have been devoted best friends since Jason introduced them. To Sienna, Jason can do no wrong, and although Julia knows he's not perfect, they've built a comfortable life and family together. Recently, Jason has been putting in long hours to secure a promotion at work, so when his boss is found brutally murdered-his lips sewn shut-the Larkins are shocked and unsettled, especially as local gossip swirls. A few days later, Julia and Sienna's lives are upended when Jason gets into a car accident and is placed in a medically induced coma. Worse, the police arrive with news that he's the prime suspect in the murder investigation. With Jason unable to respond-and with Julia and Sienna working to clear his name-the two women find their friendship threatened for the first time: Sienna staunchly maintains her brother's innocence, but as their investigation uncovers a complicated web of secrets, Julia is less sure she's willing to defend her husband. With her signature "moody and atmospheric" (USA TODAY) writing, Megan Collins has crafted a suspenseful story that explores just how fragile our closest bonds can be"--

Download or read book The Actor Harrison written by Erika Vanzin and published by Erika Vanzin. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He is the last man I should have picked to star in my movie… But I didn’t have a choice, right? Now, I must deal with the tall, handsome, blue-eyed, and Oscar-winner Harrison Bates. Why am I complaining? Because he embodies what I hate the most about Hollywood: a billionaire who uses his money to get what he wants. And everyone throws themselves at his feet. Everyone except me. He is also the reason why I have a big budget for this movie. He found the investors, and they put him in the lead role. No Harrison, no money. It’s as simple as that. Looking on the bright side, after ten years of being a director of indie movies with a tight budget, I finally have the chance to shine in a project that can skyrocket my career to the top of the Hollywood realm. All I need to do is spend a few months with Harrison’s cumbersome fame—and handsome face. And kissable lips. And sculpted abs. I can do this. I’m strong enough to not fall for him like everyone else. The Actor: Harrison is an enemies-to-lovers spicy romance featuring an indie director chasing her breakthrough, a handsome actor trying to change the path of his suffocating career, a not-so-cute first encounter, and a broken table. It’s a stand-alone, but you can read The Producer: Aaron and The Senator: Raphael if you prefer to follow the release order.

For Chicago police detective Annalisa Vega, Sam Tran’s death presents an ominous puzzle. The ex-cop turned PI is found hanging from a cemetery tree with a message across his chest that suggests someone holds a murderous grudge against the police. Annalisa suspects the real answer lies in one of Tran’s open cases. She believes he stumbled on a dark secret during his investigations and someone killed him to keep him quiet. Her own family harbors plenty of secrets, something Annalisa is reminded of when her brother turns out to be one of Sam’s last clients. Vinny Vega hired Tran to find a dangerous stalker on his daughter’s college campus. Now Sam is dead and the stalker remains at large, with Annalisa’s niece Quinn firmly in his sights. To protect Quinn, Annalisa begins tracing Sam’s steps back through his open cases, which include not only the campus stalker but also a brutal double homicide from twenty years ago. Did Sam finally find the killer? Did he uncover the stalker’s identity? Annalisa must figure out which secret got Sam killed, and fast, or someone else will die. Every move she makes brings her closer to the truth of Sam’s death, and closer to a murderer who will stop at nothing to remain free.
