Only Half A Cake

A poisoned landlord was just the beginning. If Maddie wants to survive, it’s going to take more than cupcakes and croissants.

Maddie Dixon, proprietress of the Blythe Spirit Bakeshop, is not interested in being a detective. Despite her love of mystery novels, and her penchant for solving them before the book ends, Maddie is content with her little bakery in her placid little hometown of Blythe River.

But when Maddie finds the resident landlord, Otto St. James, dead in his home, the victim of a vicious poisoning, she becomes mixed up in the mystery, setting out to find who killed Otto before they can strike again. When her bakery is targeted, however, Maddie finds that she’s in over her head, and she’s not going to be able to bake away her troubles.

Maddie is going to have to either solve the mystery of who killed Otto St. James, or be the murderer’s next victim.

Carson Trent doesn’t know that the beautiful Millie Cruise who literally falls into his lap on the morning train is really Camille Harper, a rock star of the romance industry. Millie doesn’t know she is headed for Carson’s grandmother’s picture-perfect inn in a quaint New England town. Neither Carson nor Millie know their lives are about to spin out-of-control thanks to a patch of black ice, a cow, and a little white Christmas lie.

He thinks his secret is safe. But she knows the truth…

My husband is a doctor. He’s smart and charming and everybody trusts him. Except me.

On the surface, it looks like I have it all – the perfect marriage, the perfect husband, the perfect life. But it’s far from the truth.

Doctor Drew Devlin is not the respectable figure he makes out to be. The reason we moved to this beautiful, old property with a gorgeous view of the sea was because we needed to put our past behind us. It should’ve been a fresh start for us both.

Except I’ve discovered my husband has been lying to me again. He’s using the power he has in his job to mess with people’s lives, and to get exactly what he wants – no matter who it hurts.

But he’s underestimated me. I’ve had plenty of time, in this big, isolated house, to think about all of his mistakes.

And my husband has no idea what’s about to happen next…

Murdoch’s Web
The solar system is dangerous, even for Murdoch, a three-metre spider from Titan. Returning from a successful asteroid mining trip, he stumbles upon an ancient human warship, and then real-life stranded human. His life will never be the same. Despite mutual phobias, their friendship grows as they navigate a solar system filled with warlike Terrans and suspicious arachnids.
When the scale of ancient human foolishness becomes apparent, the fate of planets hangs in the balance. Can Murdoch and Callie triumph over the looming threat, or will the shadowy secret from an ancient war destroy all they hold dear?
Told with dry humour and pathos, this is a gripping tale of trust and treachery, unexpected friendships and interplanetary intrigue that spans the solar system.

You don’t leave the Regiment. Not clean. Not when you know the things Joseph Hunter knows.

When a high-value target slips through the cracks in a covert Ethiopian mission, ex-SAS operator Joseph Hunter takes the fall. Discharged. Disavowed. Left to rot with nothing but regrets and a drinking habit that won’t let go.

But when an old enemy resurfaces — linked to a VX nerve agent and a string of shadow assassinations — Hunter is pulled back into a game he thought he’d escaped. Tasked with tracking a traitor buried deep within the UK intelligence community, he’s forced to work with old allies he no longer trusts, and a handler who may be hiding more than he reveals.

As the body count rises and the lies close in, Hunter must decide who to believe, who to burn — and how far he’s willing to go for a war that was never supposed to be his.

Gritty. Relentless. Uncompromising.
Burn Notice is the explosive start to the Hunter series — perfect for fans of Chris Ryan, Mark Greaney, and the darker edge of espionage thrillers.
