"Her Three Lives"
by Cate Holahan

In bestselling author Cate Holahan's new thriller, a family must determine the real enemy after a brutal home invasion breaks their trust in each other.

Jade Thompson is an up-and-coming social media influencer with a beautiful new home and successful fiancé. But there's trouble. Greg's suburban Connecticut upbringing isn't an easy match with her Caribbean roots.

Then a savage home invasion leaves Greg with a brain injury and glued to the feeds from his security cameras. As police investigate, Jade begins to wonder what Greg may know about their attackers.

Greg becomes convinced Jade's behavior is suspicious and wonders whether the break-in was really random. And whether he's worth more to Jade dead than alive. Purchase at https://amzn.to/3uLcteu.

"Ruby Falls"
by Deborah Goodrich Royce

"Imaginative, unique, spine-tingling," says New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown.

Like the chilling psychological thriller, "The Silent Patient," "Ruby Falls" is a nail-biting tale of a fragile young actress, the new husband she barely knows, and her growing suspicion that the secrets he harbors may eclipse her own.

In this thrilling and twisty homage to Daphne du Maurier's "Rebecca," the story ricochets through the streets of Los Angeles, a dangerous marriage to an exotic stranger, and the mind of a young woman whose past may not release her. "Secrets abound in this bang of a book, a haunting tale … a stunner with serious Gothic vibes," says bestselling author Kimberly Belle. Purchase at https://amzn.to/3rfKLEF.

"Under the Southern Sky"
by Kristy Woodson Harvey

Recently separated Amelia Buxton, a dedicated journalist, never expected that uncovering the biggest story of her career would become deeply personal. But when she discovers that a cluster of embryos belonging to her childhood friend Parker and his late wife Greer have been deemed "abandoned," she's put in the unenviable position of telling Parker -- and dredging up old wounds.

Parker has been unable to move forward since the loss of his wife. He has all but forgotten about the frozen embryos, but once Amelia reveals her discovery, he knows if he ever wants to get a part of Greer back, he'll need to accept his fate as a single father and find a surrogate.
