Nestled deep within an uncharted valley of the Himalayas is a legendary utopia of untold beauty and peace.

Jack Reilly’s next mission will be his most daunting one yet. The retired Delta operator is whisked away to the Nepali capital of Kathmandu to investigate the outrageous claims of an impossibly old, seemingly deranged Sherpa.

Rumors of a mystical mountain paradise have circulated throughout history for centuries. It is said that a supernatural enchantment is responsible for the excellent health and prolonged lives of the domain’s residents. But is it really magic? And what of the curse?

It becomes even more imperative for Jack to uncover the long-veiled location after a Chinese biotech company with government contracts joins the hunt. As a result, one of the world’s greatest mysteries is in danger of being pillaged, and the people who call it home, inhumanly experimented on and butchered.

When my best friend and I decide to open our dream bakery, Sugar & Spice, I expect endless nights of kneading dough and dusting sugar cookies with holiday magic.

What I don’t expect?

My business-savvy bestie reaching out to Asher Mercer — Chicago’s most eligible bachelor and the same guy who starred in all my high school daydreams.

He’s everything I remember — devastatingly handsome, wickedly charming — with a gaze that makes my knees weak and my pulse race faster than an industrial mixer.

I’m not that quiet girl hiding behind textbooks anymore, but sitting across from him in a high-stakes business meeting, watching him study my proposal like he’s savoring the last bite of dessert, has my composure threatening to crack.

Between building our business and perfecting every recipe these last few years, I’ve convinced myself that love is just another ingredient I don’t have time to measure.

But when Asher starts showing up more often with questions about dreams that have nothing to do with profit margins, I feel my carefully constructed walls beginning to crumble like an overbaked cookie.

One kiss beneath the mistletoe at his company’s holiday party changes everything.

Now, with success finally within reach, I’m faced with an impossible choice: stick to my tried-and-true recipe for success, or risk it all on a taste of something sweeter.

After all, some of the best desserts require turning up the heat.

She didn’t realize she’d traded “Naval Aviator” for “amateur sleuth”…

Retired Navy pilot Angel Warren’s new life awaits in Stonebridge, Pennsylvania, where she’s opening Shop ‘Round the World, her travel-inspired gift and novelty shop. A newly empty nester and longtime widow, she’s looking forward to leaving her flying career and its many life-or-death decisions behind and reconnecting with family and friends. Right now, Angel’s biggest challenge is getting the shop ready for its grand opening just weeks before Christmas.

Until she finds a dead body in the shop murdered with one of her specialty Santa figurines. Even worse, Angel’s fingerprints are on the “weapon” and she’s a prime suspect. It doesn’t help that the deceased is an old friend who’s collected a long list of enemies as a cut-throat real estate agent. And then there’s the Stonebridge Chief of Police — and Angel’s high school BFF — who brings her in for questioning.

If Angel wants to clear her name before the Christmas rush, she’s going to need to do some sleuthing on her own — and with the help of her stressed out parrot, Ralph.
