Lost roses. Cancelled reservations. Broken dates. Arrests.
Dead bodies. There’s always some reason to hate
Valentine’s Day…unless the scene of the crime starts
really heating up….
MaryJanice Davidson Cuffs and Coffee Breaks
In a moment of weakness, greeting card writer Julie Kay
About accepts a blind date for Valentine’s Day. As if the
restaurant’s snotty waiter, cheap chocolates, and pastel-
colored teddy bears aren’t enough, her date turns out to
be the guy in handcuffs next to the dead body on the
floor. At least he didn’t stand her up. How could a guy
with beautiful, sky-blue eyes and sexy swimmer’s shoulders
be a killer? Julie Kay is not about to have another
horrible V-Day, even if she has to solve a murder and get
her possibly homicidal date arraigned to do it…
Leslie Esdaile A “No Drama” Valentine’s
Jocelyn Jefferson is one sister who is not falling for any
romance drama—no pining over flowers never sent or bling
not gotten. No, this year, Jocelyn’s getting her best
girlfriends together for a “pamper” party at her house.
Except that the “pampering” turns out to be from a dubious
sex toy company. Soon, there’s a whole crew of rowdy,
enthusiastic people in Jocelyn’s apartment. And that’s
when vice detective Raymond Mayfield shows up at her door,
all six-four, hard-bodied bit of him, and he needs Jocelyn
for some very private questioning…
Susanna Carr - Valentine Survivor
This Valentine’s Day was supposed to be different for
Shanna Murphy. She had a hot date, sought-after dinner
reservations, and a brand new vase to show off those
potential long-stemmed roses. But Murphy’s Law intervened,
and now her date cancelled, she’s stuck doing overtime,
and she’s just discovered the body of her boss-from-hell.
The only person Shanna can turn to is her ex-boyfriend,
Calder Smith, who just happens to be the most insensitive,
non-romantic, domineering—and completely irresistible—
alpha male she’s ever laid eyes on…
These bad boys are bringing a whole lot more than
chocolates…
