Breaker's Reef by Terri Blackstock Pdf

Murder and mystery continue in Book Four of the Cape Refuge series A famous mystery writer has just moved to Cape Refuge when a teenage girl is found murdered. Sheila Caruso–ex-con, mother to Sadie and Caleb, and resident of Hanover House–is working for the writer when she discovers that a scene in one of his novels matches the crime scene. When Police Chief Cade and Blair Owens discover a second dead teenager–mirroring a murder in another of the eccentric writer’s books–Cade is drawn into a web of trickery and deceit. Evidence turns up in Cade’s own truck, and suddenly he becomes the number-one suspect. Cade tries to clear his name, but when eighteen-year-old Sadie Caruso disappears, tensions mount to a fever pitch. Can Cade find the real killer before Sadie winds up dead? Is the novelist a demented killer, or a hapless victim? And what does Sadie’s own mother have to do with the crimes? Secrets are uncovered, while lessons are learned about the sins of the father being visited upon his children. Will the consequences of Sheila’s life be fatal, or is there redemption and mercy for her and her children? “Chief Matthew Cade rarely considered another line of work, but news of the dead teenage girl made him long for a job as an accountant or electrician—some benign vocation that didn’t require him to look into the eyes of grieving parents.”

GIRL BREAKER by Harper Kincaid Pdf

Sometimes the best thing a good girl can do is make a bad decision. Jessica has always been the girl with her head in the clouds and her nose in a book, only dating the "nice guys." But when rough-around-the-edges Viking-biker-god, Mad Max, and his precocious little girl move onto her street, Jessica falls hard and fast for both of them. Max is no stranger to women wanting to share his bed--and he's always been more than happy to oblige them all. He's lived wild all his life--that is, until a daughter shows up on his doorstep and he meets a redheaded angel down the block. There's nothing more he wants than to claim Jessica as his, to bring the gorgeous spitfire to his bed. But a man like him doesn't get a happy ending with a woman like her. He's got a whole other life, one he's kept secret for good reason. If Jessica found out what he really is, there's no way she could love him. He should keep his hands to himself. But he's Mad Max--he's never done the right thing, and he's not going to start now. Warning: Contains a dominating alpha male who's a lot more than he seems, and a good girl with a swirl of flavors under her vanilla.

Code Girls by Liza Mundy Pdf

The award-winning New York Times bestseller about the American women who secretly served as codebreakers during World War II--a "prodigiously researched and engrossing" (New York Times) book that "shines a light on a hidden chapter of American history" (Denver Post). Recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy from small towns and elite colleges, more than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World War II. While their brothers and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to Washington and learned the meticulous work of code-breaking. Their efforts shortened the war, saved countless lives, and gave them access to careers previously denied to them. A strict vow of secrecy nearly erased their efforts from history; now, through dazzling research and interviews with surviving code girls, bestselling author Liza Mundy brings to life this riveting and vital story of American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.

Codebreaker Girls by Jan Slimming Pdf

“What would it be like to keep a secret for fifty years? Never telling your parents, your children, or even your husband?” Codebreaker Girls: A Secret Life at Bletchley Park tells the true story of Daisy Lawrence. Following extensive research, the author uses snippets of information, unpublished photographs and her own recollections to describe scenes from her mother’s poor, but happy, upbringing in London, and the disruptions caused by the outbreak of the Second World War to a young woman in the prime of her life. The author asks why, and how, Daisy was chosen to work at the Government war station, as well as the clandestine operation she experienced with others, deep in the British countryside, during a time when the effects of the war were felt by everyone. In addition, the author examines her mother’s personal emotions and relationships as she searches for her young fiancée, who was missing in action overseas. The three years at Bletchley Park were Daisy’s university, but having closed the door in 1945 on her hidden role of national importance — dealing with Germany, Italy and Japan — this significant period in her life was camouflaged for decades in the filing cabinet of her mind. Now her story comes alive with descriptions, original letters, documents, newspaper cuttings and unique photographs, together with a rare and powerful account of what happened to her after the war. “Here’s a beauty of a history of some of the codebreaking girls who helped save us during the second world war. This one’s about Daisy Lawrence’s extraordinary life as a poor girl brought up in London and then chosen for top secret work at Bletchley Park. Reads like fiction.” —Books Monthly

Naomi Steadman is immediately intrigued by Killdeer Academy's newcomer. She does not know he is the son of the man who murdered her mother.

Told in alternating viewpoints, Kat Ellis's tale of mystery and horror is full of broken bonds and new beginnings.

Bear the Heat (Alpha Werebear Bad Boy Alpha Male Shapeshifter Romance) by Lynn Red Pdf

What do you call a six-and-a-half-foot tall, muscled up, bear-shifting fire fighter? What about one with a long record of selflessly saving cubs from burning buildings? How about “yes please!” Breaker Hart is all those things. He’s every ounce the panty-melting, bad boy, calendar hunk bear you’d think. There’s only one problem: there’s a hole in his soul, and he knows he needs a mate to fill it, but he’ll be damned if he can find the one. Mink-shifting Lorelei Roberts is a damn good forensic scientist. But in between breaking cases, she’s starting to get... nervous. No matter what she does, her brain’s in a million places at once and her nerves are pretty much a frayed bundle of electrical wires. One day, while she’s swirling some chemicals in a vial, it hits her square in the face – she needs a man. Or at least a really, really good lay. Damn. It couldn’t be that she needed a new car, or a bigger house – nope, of course not. It had to be the one thing in the world she’s the worst at. Dating. The second Rory and Breaker lay eyes on each other – assisted by the legendary Eve and Dora of the Mating Call Dating Agency – something clicks. Rory knows she’s finally found someone who likes her for who she really is, and Breaker can’t get her out of his head. But, will an explosive investigation burn them both up before they can ever have a chance to find out what love REALLY is? ***The Mating Call Dating Agency is a series of stand-alone stories, each with its own HEA. They can be read in any order!***
