Janice’s romantic suspense novels are so engrossing because she uses her expertise as a former police officer to add realism to the stories that both readers and critics enjoy. Library Journal has said “fans of police suspense fiction will be drawn in by her accurate and dramatic portrayal” and Publishers Weekly called CODE OF COURAGE a “timely police procedural.”
•
In CODE OF COURAGE, Danni has to put thoughts of leaving the force to the side to investigate a fellow officer after the unthinkable happens. But taking this case also means working closely with her ex-husband Gabe, an investigator for the prosecutor’s office. Can they work together to discover the truth?
•
In BREACH OF HONOR, police officer Tanner is the only one who believes fellow officer Leah acted in self-defense in the death of her husband. As the two work to find the evidence they need, they discover secrets many in their town would remain hidden. Will they be able to clear Leah’s name and keep the town safe?

🎉 Happy release day to THE PEASANT KING! 🎉
•
When Jemmah’s mother is kidnapped, she sneaks into enemy territory to rescue her. But their escape route depends on Asher, a fellow prisoner with a mysterious past.
•
Once Asher’s true identity is revealed, Jemmah must convince him to give up everything he’s worked for to help save an empire.
•
Set in ancient Persia, this new novel from Tessa Afshar is a story full of adventure, romance, and faith. Full summary below ⬇️
•
THE PEASANT KING is available now online and in stores, wherever books are sold. And read the companion novel, THE HIDDEN PRINCE. Link in bio!
•
Full summary:
Jemmah has always thought of herself as perfectly ordinary . . . until she faces extraordinary circumstances.
•
When her mother, the Persian king’s famous senior scribe, is kidnapped, Jemmah and her sister must sneak undetected into enemy territory to rescue her. But infiltrating their adversary’s lands proves easier than escaping them.
•
Fleeing through dangerous mountain passes, their survival depends on the skills of a stranger they free from prison: a mysterious prince named Asher.
•
Asher is not who the world believes he is. Despite his royal blood, he has had to climb his way out of poverty to forge success from nothing. A manufacturer of some of the best weaponry in the East, Asher has only one goal: to destroy his father.
•
But following his escape from prison, Asher is irresistibly drawn to Jemmah, unaware that she guards her own secret.
•
Jemmah must convince Asher to give up everything he has worked for, all for the sake of a higher purpose he’s not sure he believes in. The fate of the Persian empire—and possibly the Judean people—hang in the balance and in the persuasive power of one ordinary woman.

1992. Though Chloe Ridell lives in the shadows of Poppy’s castle, now in ruins, she has little interest in the mystery that still captivates tourists and locals alike. She is focused on preserving the island she inherited from her grandparents and reviving their vintage candy shop. Until the day a girl named Emma shows up on Chloe’s doorstep, with few possessions, save a tattered scrapbook that connects her to the Pendleton family.
•
When a reporter arrives at Chloe’s store, asking questions about her grandfather, Chloe decides to help him dig into a past she’d thought best left buried. The haunting truth about Poppy, they soon discover, could save Emma’s life, so Chloe and Logan must work together to investigate exactly what happened long ago on Koster Isle.

📘 Full summary:
Inspired by one of America’s most notorious couples, Bonnie and Clyde, Jennifer L. Wright delivers a riveting tale set during the public enemy era of the Great Depression.

Beatrice Carraway has dreams. Although she’s aged out of the childhood pageant circuit, she’s intent on carrying her talents all the way to the big screen—if only she can escape the poverty of West Dallas first.
•
But as the Great Depression drags the working class further and further under, Beatrice struggles just to keep herself, her mother, and her younger sister afloat. After a string of failed auditions, she feels defeated.
•
And then in walks Jack Turner. Though Beatrice is determined to pull herself up by her bootstraps, Jack has decided on a different path out of the gutters. It isn’t long before Beatrice is swept into an exciting and glamorous life of crime beside the man she loves.
•
Keeping one step ahead of the law, she sees her dreams of fame come true when her name and picture are plastered in newspapers across the country. Yet as their infamy grows, the distance between them widens.
•
While Jack begins seeking bigger payouts and publicity, Beatrice starts to long for a safe, quiet life and something deeper to fill the emptiness in her soul. But when the danger of Jack’s schemes ratchets up, Beatrice fears her dreams—and her future—will end up going down in a hail of bullets.
