Murder inthe River City - Allison Brennan


Allison Brennan - Murder inthe River City

Keep your friends close …

When the long-time bartender at Dooley’s Pub is murdered, the police believe a violent gang of thieves is responsible. But Shauna Murphy, Dooley’s fiery granddaughter, thinks Mack’s killer is someone she knows. In addition to stealing money, the thieves stole her grandfather’s collection of autographed baseballs, leaving behind the only forgery. The lead detective doesn’t take her seriously, and Shauna reluctantly turns to long-time family friend, Detective Sam Garcia—the man who once broke her heart. But Sam has another murder to solve: the death of a young woman who was strangled and dumped in the river.

… and your enemies closer

As Sam digs deeper into his own investigation, he suspects that his case is linked to Mack’s murder. After an attack on Shauna leaves her shaken and angry, Sam vows to protect her. But he can’t defend her against an unknown threat. As time runs out with no one to trust, Sam and Shauna must work together to catch a ruthless killer before they both end up dead and buried.

Estar conectada a Daemon Black apesta…

Daemon está decido a demostrar que lo que siente por mí es más que un producto de nuestra conexión extraña. Lo he rechazado a pesar de que está más caliente que frío en estos días. Pero tenemos problemas más grandes.

Algo peor que los Arum ha llegado al pueblo.

El Departamento de Defensa está aquí. Si alguna vez se enteran sobre lo qué Daemon puede hacer y que estamos vinculados, estoy muerta. Al igual que él. Y está este chico
nuevo en la escuela con un secreto propio. Él sabe lo que está pasando conmigo y puede ayudar, pero para eso, le tengo que mentir a Daemon y alejarme de él. Como si eso fuera posible. A pesar de todo sentido común, me estoy enamorando de él. Duro.

Pero entonces todo cambia…

He visto a alguien que no debería estar vivo. Y tengo que decirle a Daemon, incluso cuando sé que nunca parará de buscar hasta llegar a la verdad. ¿Qué sucedió con su hermano? ¿Quién lo traicionó? ¿Y qué quiere la DOD de ellos—de mí?

Nadie es quién parece. Y no todos sobrevivirán las mentiras...

Empezar de nuevo apesta.

Cuando nos mudamos a West Virginia justo antes del último curso, ya me había resignado al acento raro, a tener mala conexión a Internet y a aburrirme como una ostra… hasta que vi al sexy de mi vecino, tan alto y con unos ojos verdes impresionantes. Las cosas parecen ir mejorando.

Y entonces él abrió la boca.

Daemon es insufrible. Arrogante, desquiciante. No nos llevamos nada bien. Nada, nada bien. Pero cuando un desconocido me atacó y Daemon congeló el tiempo, literalmente, con solo mover la mano… bueno, sucedió algo… inesperado.

El alienígena sexy que vive al lado me marcó.

Sí, han oído bien. Alienígena. Resulta que Daemon y su hermana tienen una galaxia entera de enemigos que quieren robar sus habilidades, y el contacto de Daemon ha hecho que parezca uno de esos carteles iluminados de las Vegas. El único modo de  salir con vida de todo esto es mantenerme pegada a Daemon hasta que mi «luz» extraterrestre se apague.

Eso si antes no mato a Daemon, claro.

Shadows - Jennifer L. Armentrout


Jennifer L. Armentrout - Shadows (Lux #0.5)

Lo último que Dawson Black esperaba era Bethany Williams. Como un Luxen, una forma de vida alienígena en la Tierra, las chicas humanas eran... bueno, una diversión. Pero dado que los Luxen debían mantener sus verdaderas identidades en secreto, enamorarse sería una locura. 

Peligroso. Tentador. Innegable.

Bethany no puede negar la inmediata conexión entre ella y Dawson. Y a pesar que los chicos son una complicación que no quiere, no puede estar lejos de él. Sin embargo, cada vez que cierra los ojos piensa en él.

Cautivador. Atractivo. Encantador.

Dawson guarda un secreto que podría cambiar su existencia... y poner su vida en peligro. Pero ni siquiera él puede dejar de arriesgar todo por una chica humana. O de un destino tan inevitable como amor en sí.

But what they expect is definitely not what they get, and what starts out as fun turns dark and twisted after the discovery of a DVD with a sinister message: Vengeance is mine.

Suddenly people are dying, and with a storm raging, the teens are cut off from the outside world. No electricity, no phones, no internet, and a ferry that isn’t scheduled to return for two days. As the deaths become more violent and the teens turn on each other, can Meg find the killer before more people die? Or is the killer closer to her than she could ever imagine?

When he’s not buying drinks for his friends, he’s showering his longtime girlfriend, Sofia, with gifts – making her the envy of the neighborhood. Her friends, Giulia and Claudia, secretly hope the two will break it off, but Sofia is set on marriage and eagerly awaits Enzo’s proposal.

Enzo’s friend, Phil, is the outcast of the group. He dislikes to party, and attributes the “Jersey Shore lifestyle” to the decline of civilization. Nevertheless, he finds himself infatuated with Giulia – a crush since kindergarten. Giulia, however, is wildly insecure and has no interest in his bookish ways. She has her heart set on Enzo – and with a little maneuvering, she might just get what she wants!
