The stories in the Southern Romantic-Suspense collection all have a slight connection to each other so you can read each book individually — without a cliffhanger — then continue the journey and meet new protagonists with different issues and tragedies to overcome.

Novels included in this set:

She Belongs to Me – In this tightly woven tale of love, possession, and secrets, police detective Jordan Monroe finds his wife unconscious, clinging to life.

Split Decisions – Sometimes you want something so badly you are willing to abandon everything you've ever known--including yourself.

Land of the Noonday Sun – When two strangers have nothing left but their dreams, they must forge a relationship in Nantahala, North Carolina, a small town known as Land of the Noonday Sun.

Entangled Dreams – Alexandra used to live a charmed life — until a tragedy took it all away... Years later, one reckless night will put her back on the road to disaster in this steamy novel packed with swoon-worthy romance and heart-stopping suspense.

When Noonday Ends – When a new attorney accepts a pro-bono case of an abused woman suspected of attempted murder, he ends up with more than he bargained for. She’s the ex-wife of one of the oldest and wealthiest families in Ashville, and her in-laws will stop at nothing to conceal family secrets — even murder.

Kinley’s determination to defend herself and the animals she loves will make her Bram’s unlikely ally.
