The Fifth Victim
by Beverly Barton
BARGAIN
Just outside Cherokee Pointe, Tennessee, a victim is sacrificed on a makeshift altar—the gruesome handywork of a killer who has evaded authorities in state after state. FBI agent Dallas Sloan knows the scene all too well—just as he knows the killings won’t stop until there are four more bodies.
Genny Madoc’s “sixth sense” has brought many of Cherokee Pointe’s residents to her isolated log cabin, looking for help. But now it’s Genny who needs help from disturbing visions that are getting stronger and more violent by the day. Thrown together by necessity, drawn to each other by desire, Dallas and Genny must band together, searching the darkest heart of a town’s hidden secrets before a twisted killer can complete a deadly ritual that will make one of them the fifth victim. #ad

by Lisa Prysock
BARGAIN
Pippa Johnston, a host from Nashville’s Christian radio station WWJD 83.1 FM, returns from vacation better than ever with her new show, Dial-A-Date, a spinoff from Pippa’s Praiseworthy Personals.

Living out of her car and unemployed, confirmed atheist and former foster child, Joy Evans, lands a temp job for a Christian bookstore after calling into Pippa’s show looking for her knight in shining armor. Instead, Pippa prays for her to find a job. Can this even work out? All Joy wants is a chance to become an interior designer, but rough edges, a tough attitude, and a less than stellar track record might hold her back from success. #ad

After shooting crime scene photos of a famous actress, the latest victim of the murderer the press has dubbed the “Dagger Killer,” Vivian notices eerie similarities to the crime scenes of previous victims—details that only another photographer would have noticed—details that put Vivian at the top of the killer’s target list. #ad

The Something Girl
by Jodi Taylor

Life is good at Frogmorton Farm. Yes, Jenny and Russell are still broke. Yes, the roof still leaks. And yes, the Checklands are about to become the long-suffering owners of a battalion of trouble-seeking Patagonian Attack Chickens. But life is still quite wonderful for someone who used to be called the Nothing Girl.
Jenny Checkland knows better than to count her chickens, though, even the Patagonian ones. Particularly because an all-too-familiar face from the past seems to be popping up wherever she goes.

But he couldn’t possibly be stupid enough to come back and try again . . . could he? #ad
The Italian Holiday
by Victoria Springfield
BARGAIN
Italy was Bluebell’s dream destination, but taking her granny’s place on the Loving and Knitting magazine competition holiday she’d won wasn’t quite what she’d had in mind. For one thing she didn’t knit and for the other…well being single probably discounted her from the love category too. But a free holiday is a free holiday and it’s the perfect escape from her lacklustre life.
Michela didn’t think she’d be returning home to Italy so soon, a new job at her cousin’s restaurant on the harbour of Positano was a dream gig, miles away from the grey London clouds. This time though, she vowed not to fall into old habits, Stefano was the past and now her future in her old hometown beckoned. #ad

Now Sara’s jumped from the frying pan into the fire because dating outside of your Clan is against Directorate law. Ian could be thrown in jail or executed without a trial. But now that she knows what love feels like, she can’t imagine being with anyone else. Talk about a rock and a hard place… #ad
