Friedman, Illinois. Once known only as the home of a mid-sized state university, it's now referred to on nightly news reports as "the murder capital of the United States." Students are evacuating. The town is clogged with reporters, all desperate for a story. The sister of a victim is trying to use her family's tragedy to build a career in the spotlight. A local band is using the murders and the national attention they bring to land a record deal. Local and state police are powerless to stop the killings; the level of hysteria on campus and in the surrounding town is rising with each new addition to the body count. After tracking Dave and Lucas down and demanding to come along on the blood-soaked ride, Rachel finds herself cramming for a crash-course in serial murder. But the final exam may come sooner than she thinks--when Dave and Lucas are brought in for questioning after a friend's body is found at one of the crime scenes and men in unmarked cars start watching their movements 24 hours a day, they have to know... If you've killed your way into trouble, can you kill your way out?

Robin Loxleigh and his sister Marianne are the hit of the Season, so attractive and delightful that nobody looks behind their pretty faces. Until Robin sets his sights on Sir John Hartlebury's heiress niece. The notoriously graceless baronet isn't impressed by good looks or fooled by false charm. He's sure Robin is a liar, a fortune hunter, and a heartless, greedy fraud - and he'll protect his niece, whatever it takes. Then, just when Hart thinks he has Robin at his mercy, things take a sharp left turn. And as the grumpy baronet and the glib fortune hunter start to understand each other, they also find themselves starting to care - more than either of them thought possible. But Robin's cheated and lied and let people down for money. Can a professional rogue earn an honest happy ever after?
