Crash LandingBy Janice Kay Johnson

When it's never safe to stop running... Cape Trouble, a tiny Oregon Coast town, was named for the dangerous off-shore reefs. But some of its citizens seek refuge from their own troubles...which have a way of following them. One night, in her upscale California restaurant, Naomi Kendrick overheard powerful men plotting a political assassination. To save her life, she made a bargain with the devil...and then ran. Inevitably, she is found. More than one enemy descends on Cape Trouble to learn her secrets...and silence Naomi once and for all. Detective Adam Rostov suspects she stabbed his partner to death in her restaurant kitchen. Pursuing her to Cape Trouble, he arrives just in time to rescue her from an assault. He conceals his real purpose in Cape Trouble to stay close to her. Because if he can't keep her alive, he'll never find out if she's innocent or guilty. Naomi's instincts scream, Run, but too late, because Adam isn't about to let her go. Not when he has begun to believe she is a victim and not a killer. Not when she is irresistible bait to draw a contract killer, a corrupt U.S. Congressman, and a crooked federal agent. And not when, despite all common sense, he's falling in love with the mysterious chef. Once Naomi discovers Adam too has been hunting her, she must decide. Run and keep running, or trust him to keep her safe? Of course, once he knows her darkest secret, he may no longer want to protect her...

Sophie takes over her aunt's crusade to save the falling-down Misty Beach Resort and its old-growth forest and wild sand dunes and beach from development - even though she never wants to set foot again on Misty Beach. But Sophie's memories threaten a killer...who doesn't dare let her remember too much. Having come to Cape Trouble to heal his own wounds, Police Chief Daniel Colburn investigates the present-day murder, but begins to suspect Sophie's mother was another murder victim, not a suicide. Everything he learns increases his fear for this woman he is coming to love. Sophie's fate may be to die in a shroud of fog, just like her mother before her, unless she trusts Daniel to help her uncover her past in time.
