Cold Deception (Prequel to the His Agenda Series) by Dori Lavelle
They say he’s a monster, a very dangerous man. But they don’t know him. They don’t know the depth of the darkness lurking inside his soul. They don’t see the burn of the wounds on his heart. If they did, maybe they would understand why he became Jude Macknight.
Cold Deception offers a peek into the past life of Jude Macknight…when he used to be someone else, when he was married to the woman who introduced him to his dark side.

FORBIDDEN by Marta Tandori
In this psychological thriller, past mistakes, revenge and family secrets dating back to the Second World War threaten to destroy two Hollywood families that are joined by blood and tainted by a scandalous legacy…Maria was the secret no one in Leo Bauer’s family talked about, her existence a constant reminder of his dead father’s shameful deviance. Yet ironically, from the first moment his mother set eyes on Maria, she wanted the girl for her very own – and was willing to go to any lengths to make that happen. And for the next nine years, Leo was able to successfully push Maria’s existence to the back of his mind until unexpected circumstances finally forced a meeting between him and the teenager. Despite Leo’s resolve to remain detached, he found himself drawn to her innocence. He knew Maria was off limits to him and yet, he simply couldn’t help himself. And so began their forbidden affair … until disaster struck, forcing Leo’s family to cut Maria loose.
Years have now passed and Maria abruptly reappears at Leo’s door, almost unrecognizable in her ragged clothing, spouting a litany of barely coherent gibberish. Despite his initial shock, long-suppressed feelings for her begin to stir but when Leo tries coaxing her into his house, Maria runs away in fright. In her flight, she drops a worn photograph and when Leo sees it, he realizes that Maria coming back poses a threat to all of them. He must make a choice … follow his heart or eliminate Maria before she ruins them. Either way, he must find her first…
Reverb by J. Cafesin
James Whren is brilliant, beautiful, rich, and taken—with his genius for creating music. Desired by many, he commits to no one but his muse. On the eve of his brother’s funeral his father shatters his life, and James is left abandoned in hell with no one real to save him.
Until Elisabeth, and her son, Cameron.
Reverb is a love story, a psychological thriller paced with romantic suspense. Spun from The Magus (John Fowles), also about a man who learns to love someone other than himself, and way beyond 50 Shades of Gray (E.L. James), Reverb is told like Crime and Punishment, modern, tight, dark, edgy verging on sharp. It’s like nothing you’ve read, guaranteed.
5/5 Stars / Top Pick! “This is one of those stories that pulls you in immediately and has you frantically turning the pages to see what happens next.”–Diana Coyle, Night Owl Reviews
