With a sassy mouth and a penchant for drunken shoe shopping, Raven McShane may be Vegas's most unlikely new detective, but she always gets her man. Which is why Hollywood heiress Melanie Weston needs Raven's help.

When Melanie got serious with a cute Englishman she thought she hit the jackpot — especially when he claimed he was a distant member of the Royal Family. But now things don't quite add up, and she wants Raven to investigate Prince Charming's story.

Along with her sexy, muscular sidekick, Raven suddenly finds herself chasing stories, making enemies, and putting herself in far more danger than she bargained for when her digging uncovers a sinister plot that goes way beyond happily-ever-afters. Raven may have more experience with platform heels than putting away bad guys but she's determined to stay one step ahead of trouble, solve a murder, and look fabulous the entire time!

Whiskey Beach by Nora Roberts

A Novel of Romantic Suspense

Publisher: Berkley

Kindle Daily Deal Price: $1.99

For more than three hundred years, Bluff House has sat above Whiskey Beach, guarding its shore — and its secrets. But to Eli Landon, it's home.

A Boston lawyer, Eli has weathered an intense year of public scrutiny and police investigations after being accused of — but never arrested for — the murder of his soon-to-be ex-wife.

He finds sanctuary at Bluff House, even though his beloved grandmother is in Boston recuperating from a nasty fall. Abra Walsh is always there, though. Whiskey Beach's resident housekeeper, yoga instructor, jewelry maker and massage therapist, Abra is a woman of many talents — including helping Eli take control of his life and clear his name. But as they become entangled in each other, they find themselves caught in a net that stretches back for centuries — one that has ensnared a man intent on reaping the rewards of destroying Eli Landon once and for all.

Dirty Magic by Jaye Wells

A Prospero's War Novel (1st in series)

Publisher: Orbit

Kobo Daily Deal Price: $2.99 (price-matched by Amazon)

  

Magic is a drug. Careful how you use it.

The Magical Enforcement Agency keeps dirty magic off the streets, but there's a new blend out there that's as deadly as it is elusive. When patrol cop Kate Prospero shoots the lead snitch in this crucial case, she's brought in to explain herself. But the more she learns about the investigation, the more she realizes she must secure a spot on the MEA task force.

Especially when she discovers that their lead suspect is the man she walked away from ten years earlier — on the same day she swore she'd given up dirty magic for good. Kate Prospero's about to learn the hard way that crossing a wizard will always get you burned, and that when it comes to magic, you should never say never.

Nobody knows the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas like Daniel Faust, a sorcerer for hire and ex-gangster who uses black magic and bullets to solve his clients' problems. When an old man comes seeking vengeance for his murdered granddaughter, what looks like a simple job quickly spirals out of control.

Soon Daniel stands in the crossfire between a murderous porn director; a corrupt cop with a quick trigger finger; and his own former employer, a racket boss who isn't entirely human. Then there's Caitlin: brilliant, beautiful, and the lethal right hand of a demon prince.

A man named Faust should know what happens when you rub shoulders with demons. Still Daniel can't resist being drawn to Caitlin's flame as they race to unlock the secret of the Etruscan Box, a relic that people all over town are dying — and killing — to get their hands on. As the bodies drop and the double-crosses pile up, Daniel will need every shred of his wits, courage and sheer ruthlessness just to survive.

Daniel Faust knew he was standing with one foot over the brink of hell. He's about to find out just how far he can fall.

Suspecting Henry was murdered, Rachel can't help poking her nose into things, looking for the truth — a dangerous pastime that Jeff Price, her high school sweetheart, doesn't approve of.

Only recently returned to Blossom, Jeff doesn't like the circumstances surrounding Henry's death any more than Rachel does … but it's his job as a detective to find out what really happened. The list of suspects only seems to get longer the longer the case stays open: Henry's nephew is the prime suspect, but there are rumours of a long-lost son and a mysterious marriage, and even one of Rachel's employees is put through the wringer. Rachel quickly realises that someone is willing to do anything to keep her from discovering the truth … and it becomes a race to solve the mystery before she becomes the latest victim.
