Protect and Serve 
by Terri Reed

PERSON OF INTEREST
When rookie K-9 officer Shane West and his German shepherd partner find the lead police dog trainer murdered, he's determined to bring the killer to justice. But then he discovers Gina Perry hiding nearby—a pretty junior trainer who had the motive, means and opportunity to kill her boss. Gina insists her troubled brother is the real murderer…and this isn't the first time he's killed. And when Gina's brother comes after her, Shane is assigned to protect her and uncover the truth. Suddenly, Shane—a cop who always hoped to join a big-city force—vows to stay by Gina's side as a murderer lurks in the small-town shadows.

Picture Perfect Murder
by Rachel Dylan

KILLER FOCUS
When photographer Lily Parker escapes an attack, she doesn't want any help from the FBI agent who is convinced she's a serial killer's latest obsession. But after one of her photographs is found at a murder scene, it's clear that Special Agent Rex Sullivan was right. Lily, a former CIA agent, isn't used to relying on others, but she won't survive without Rex at her side. And Rex quickly sees that Lily isn't a typical victim in need of his protection, but a valuable partner who can help him bring down a madman. With the murderer growing bolder, Rex has to convince Lily to trust him with her safety—or she could become the killer's next victim.

Faith and Forgiveness

I’m so excited about my Love Inspired Suspense debut OUT OF HIDING. As a young girl, Sadie Lane witnessed the murder of her parents. Thrust into Witness Protection, she never forgot what happened—or the man who was responsible.

Instead of staying hidden, Sadie becomes a private investigator and searches out Igor Vladimir, the man who killed her parents. Sadie joins forces with FBI agent Kip Moore to track down Igor and bring an end to his criminal network. Although Kip doesn’t know the real reason that Sadie wants justice, he stands by her side.

Sadie has the strength to face danger head on because of her faith. It’s also her faith that pushes her to re-examine her motives. She knows deep within her heart that she desperately wants revenge against Igor for what he did. But she also knows that seeking that revenge is wrong. Kip also faces some past struggles and cannot forgive those who wronged him. Instead he has lived in a dark, painful place.

As they travel on this journey together, faith and forgiveness come to the forefront. Sometimes it is very difficult to forgive when you have been terribly wronged. The courage that it takes to forgive is found through faith. In fighting their battles, Sadie and Kip learn from each other and learn how faith can make a way.

How do you approach forgiving someone? Especially when you feel like you’ve been wronged? What role does faith play for you in that process?

TRUST NO ONE 

This vow has kept P.I. Sadie Lane safe ever since she saw her parents murdered and then entered Witness Protection. But when she gets a lead on the long-ago killer she can't forget, Sadie joins forces with a dashing FBI agent leading his own investigation into the crime boss. Kip Moore makes her yearn to trust, but protocol demands Sadie keep her true identity hidden. Secrecy is all that has kept her alive. As they venture deep undercover into her target's syndicate, Sadie finds herself in over her head. Kip is her only hope as she comes face-to-face with a killer from her past. A deadly past that now threatens her future…and Kip's.
