Jordan and Alex grew up together in a small town of jaguar shifters, where being a half-blood was looked down upon, even by their own fathers. Once they became adults, they left their community and joined a secret military operation call the Alpha Division, a team of shifters keeping the peace with any means necessary, and their next mission comes close to home. Both men feel they have too many secrets for commitment, but at the same time cannot stand the thought of losing Sam.
When Jordan and Alex's past comes back to haunt them, a possible traitor on the team threatens the woman they love and a future they have never dreamt. Once secrets are revealed, can the three of them forget the past and forgive the lies or will fear drive them further apart?

-->Detective Charlie McClung no longer finds his job fulfilling and has given up finding that "someone" his granny promised he'd find. So he leaves behind the big city and his close-knit family and takes a job in a small town police department in Georgia, resigned to live a quiet life in solitude.
Things change when he meets Marian Selby while investigating the mysterious death of her best friend. But Marian swore never to love again after the death of her husband 11 years ago. What seems to be a suicide turns into a tangled web of deceit, corruption, and complicated shadows.
Can the two of them come to grips with their feelings for each other before the killer closes in on them? Buy on Amazon Buy on Barnes & Noble
From the author: "Brilliant Disguise" is the first book in The Charlie McClung Mysteries. The second book, "A Good Girl", will be released September 23rd. The third book, "Criminal Kind", should be released in April 2015. There will be a total of ten books in the series, maybe more.
The setting for most of the books take place in a small town in Georgia during the early 80s. The genre of the books is hard to put into one category. They are a blend of mystery, romance, and some say women's fiction. They are more traditional mysteries than cozy. My writing style has been compared to Agatha Christie and Donald Bain.

-->Worst epic fail of her scientific career? Falling for a cyborg she helped create.
Dr. Kyra Winters never meant for her cyber science discoveries to be used for evil, but that’s exactly what happened. Now returning Peyton 313’s humanity may be the last chance she’ll ever have to atone for her sins. She can’t get back the decade she let Cyber Soldiers be enslaved and did nothing. She can only change the present by restoring the cyborg who was once Marine Captain Peyton Elliot.
Madly kissing the confused, passionate Marine was a huge mistake. Her rational mind warned her not to let any of Peyton’s tempting offers cloud her decision making. But Kyra finds it difficult to resist when Peyton turns out to be the most intriguing man she’s ever met.
Now partially restored, Peyton thinks he’s a soldier still at war. But no matter how tempting it is to let him keep believing that illusion, Kyra knows she can’t keep the last decade a secret from him forever. The truth won’t set either of them free, but Peyton deserves to know about his life, even if he ultimately hates her for what she’s done. Buy on Amazon

She takes refuge at Shadow Falls, a camp for teens with paranormal powers. It’s where she and her best friends, Kylie and Miranda, heal their heartbreak with laughter, and where Della is training to be a paranormal investigator—and she refuses to be distracted.
