There is a new Christy Barritt book scheduled to be released soon. It’s always a happy day for me when I get to see another one coming out.

Unsteady Ground (Lantern Beach Exposure Book 3)

Trouble from Ty Chambers’s past has arrived in Lantern Beach. A top secret mission the former Navy SEAL was involved with nearly ten years ago has shown up at his door–and brought danger to the island.

If he and his wife, Cassidy, don’t track down the culprit in time, it could mean peril . . . not just for them, but for the entire town.

I did explore a little for more choices but this is it for now. It was pleasant to find this one because I had accepted there would be none for today. A good finish to the day.

To finish the day I’m watching a interview with two authors. It’s about several fictional books they’ve written centering around Macedonian immigrants to Australia. One of the authors is someone I follow here, and I’ll share her link. You may enjoy it too. The interview is shown on You Tube

The beauty of reading collections? The discovery of new-to-me authors. I’m currently reading a 10 book collection and Liz Bradford did an awesome job of writing the story I’ve just finished. I need to check her out and maybe find more of her books. I see she was listed in another collection in my library but that’s all the exposure I’ve had, that I remember anyway. There could have been other collections with her stories but, sadly, they don’t always show up in my searches. I’ve explored some of the books she’s written and found one that is a bargain, it sounds interesting and it’s 465 pages, what could be better than that for a solid introduction.

Small Town Danger: 10 Full-Length Romantic Suspense & Mystery Novels is my current read. It’s still a bargain and definitely worth the reading time. Liz’s book in the collection? #2 Swept Away

The book I’m about to download?

That’s it for the moment.

First up is one from one of my top ten favorite authors. I loved this book, the way this man thinks and writes, and have to mention his books whenever I see them.

Water from My Heart: A Novel

New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin’s breathtaking novel of love and redemption.

Charlie Finn had to grow up fast, living alone by age sixteen. Highly intelligent, he earned a life-changing scholarship to Harvard, where he learned how to survive and thrive on the outskirts of privileged society. That skill served him well in the cutthroat business world, as it does in more lucrative but dangerous ventures he now operates off the coast of Miami.

Charlie tries to separate relationships from work. But when his choices produce devastating consequences, he sets out to right wrongs, traveling to Central America where he will meet those who have paid for his actions, including a woman and her young daughter. Will their fated encounter present Charlie with a way to seek the redemption he thought was impossible — and free his heart to love one woman as he never knew he could?

On to new books. There is only one so far.

Web of Deceit (Agents Under Fire)

When FBI Agent Kaitlyn Knight discovers her brother-in-law is Vyper—the notorious cyber-criminal and murderer wanted by the FBI—Kait doesn’t question her duty to arrest him. But when he murders her sister in front of her, leaving her infant niece motherless, Kait vows to hunt him down and bring him to justice while raising the baby.

Three years later, and not even a whisper of a lead in her search, Kait is about to give up hope of ever finding Vyper. All of that changes when he goes on a murderous spree taunting Kait with clues that she and homicide detective Sam Murdock must solve before her devious brother-in-law takes another life.

As the body count rises, Sam discovers the killing spree is really about striking back at Kait. He must put everything on the line—including the relationship he’s developed with Kait—to ensure her safety. The killer is waiting, watching her every move—and he won’t stop until he’s exacted his revenge and reclaims his rights to raise his daughter.
