But before they can get settled in Myrtle Beach, a late-night break-in and the discovery of an enigmatic device plunge them into an international caper. Beachside encounters with charming, glamorous foreigners, sightings of the Taylors' doppelgangers around town, and rumors of a secretive figure known as La Fantôme all complicate matters further. From a covert operation at a seaside mansion to a cat-and-mouse chase along the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk to a life-or-death struggle on the high seas, Jake and Rachel try to stay one step ahead of danger. As the Taylors get drawn deeper into the mystery, they will have to rely on each other like never before if they-much less their marriage-are to remain intact. Fire & Ice is a combination of adventure, intrigue, and romance-set in an exotic locale-that will keep you guessing until the very end!
Mine to Avenge - The Douglas Files
For two years, P.I. Jackson Douglas has been a shell of himself, scarred by the death of his family. Now, new info surfaces that may give him answers about the day that turned his life upside down. More than that, he may finally have a chance to bring to justice the man who caused his pain. As he relentlessly and obsessively pursues the truth, Jackson flashes back to his start as a private investigator and to his first client, a cute young woman looking for her missing brother. Jackson's efforts uncovered a sinister case of fraud and murder, and became inexorably linked to his family's death. They aren't the only ties to the past that prove relevant in his current quest, either . . . The closer Jackson gets to obtaining justice, the more he finds himself drawn toward revenge. Vowing not to quit until he catches his quarry, he risks destroying himself in the process. Only one thing can stop him from taking vengeance into his own hands, and it's the one thing he'll never see coming.
Broken Trust
Ray Eastwood heads to Jackson, Wyoming, looking for a distraction-and he finds one. His cousin Graham is missing, leaving behind a cranky girlfriend and a cryptic message but little else. Teaming up with a vivacious park ranger named Lauren, Ray deciphers Graham's message and follows it to a variety of Jackson Hole landmarks. Each is somehow tied to a century-old contract, a power struggle between two of the area's prominent families, and a cult-like belief rooted in the valley's mystical aura. The more they learn, the more questions Ray and Lauren have-and the more they fear the worst about Graham. Set against the panorama of the Teton Mountains, Broken Trust explores the lust for power, the relationship between the mystic and the divine, and the depths of loyalty and friendship . . . and ends with a bang!

When Private Investigator Jackson Douglas is approached by "history hunter" Joel Robinson with a legend about Crusader treasure, he is more than a little wary. But Joel seems legitimate and believes in Jackson's investigative skills. And he's paying very well. So Jackson joins Joel and his team in their pursuit to decipher the riddle of "The Holy Trinity," believed to be the key to locating the treasure. Questions loom over the expedition from the beginning. What exactly is the treasure? What power did the Crusaders believe it possessed? Why did they go to such great lengths to conceal it? Who else is after the treasure, and what danger do they pose to the team? And which of his teammates can Jackson trust . . . and which can't he? The quest will take Jackson from a prestigious art gallery in New York City to a secret vault high in the Alps to the very land the Crusaders and Muslims fought over centuries ago, testing his deductive abilities-and his faith-at every turn.

Chasing the Wind - The Douglas Files: Book Five
When art connoisseur Alec Vanderbilt died, he left behind a centuries-old Bible that is a cherished family heirloom, a valuable collectors' piece, and a possible treasure trove of CIA intel from Alec's time with "the Company." So P.I. Jackson Douglas knows reclaiming it for Alec's daughter Abby won't be easy. But should it really be this hard? Complicating matters are a host of government agencies, fake federal agents, spies, ex-girlfriends, and Alec's son-each of whom wants the Bible for various reasons. However, nobody causes Jackson and Abby as much trouble as the mystery woman who joins the hunt with them. Pursuit of the Bible takes them from an opulent downtown L.A. hotel to an art gala on Santa Catalina Island, and from a game of cat-and-mouse aboard Amtrak's Coast Starlight to a snow-covered mountain hideaway. If Jackson is to procure the Bible for Abby, he'll need to stay one step ahead of the entire gang-not to mention stay alive long enough to figure out how to pull it off.
Shot List - The Douglas Files: Book Four
After being shot and left to bleed out in an L.A. cemetery on New Year's Eve, P.I. Jackson Douglas wakes in the hospital, attempting to recall the face of the shooter and the events that brought him to the cemetery in the first place.

All of them have motives, but even as he relives his adventures-one of which led him to the cemetery-the pieces refuse to fall into place. Identifying his shooter isn't the only thing on Jackson's mind. For several months, he's been tormented by the choices (and their repercussions) he's made since becoming a private eye. Is it time for him to give up the business for good? Will his quest to find his shooter give him new purpose? And how will he respond when he finds out he may not be the shooter's only target?
