 • Sizzle and Burn by Jayne Ann Krentz —Raine Tallentyre has a special paranormal gift, something her only relative, Aunt Vella, told her to keep to herself. But Raine decided to share her family secret – their psychic abilities – and tell her boyfriend, which led to a swift end to their relationship. After Vella dies, Raine travels alone to Shelbyville, Washington, to clear out her aunt's home. As soon as she arrives, Raine senses a young woman bound in a basement storage locker. Her discovery saves the woman, and introduces her to a local detective, the handsome Zack Jones, who isn't afraid of her abilities. In fact, he has some of his own. The two feel an instant attraction. But Zack works with the Arcane Society, a secret group that studies the paranormal; a group that betrayed her family years ago and one that she's not ready to trust. But as a killer sets his sights on Raine, she learns that she and Zack will have to depend on each other.

• The Appeal by John Grisham—After his Mississippi based company is found liable for dumping toxic waste into a small town's water supply and causing the most severe “cancer cluster” in history, Wall Street tycoon Carl Trudeau comes up with a plan to make sure he wins the appeal. He's going to finance, groom, market, and ultimately get his very own judge elected to the Mississippi Supreme Court before the appeal is heard. He's found his candidate, and now the political manipulation begins.

• The Purrfect Murder by Rita Mae Brown—Mary Minor “Harry” Haristeen and her sleuthing cats return in what looks like an open and shut murder case – to everyone but Harry and her cats. When Mrs. Carla Paulson arrives in the sleepy Virginia country town she has no plans to take it easy. Instead she hires architect Tazio Chappers – a friend of Harry's – to build her a mansion worthy of her wealth, and guaranteed to rub her equally affluent old friends' noses in it. From the start the project is nothing but headaches. And when Chappers is found holding a knife over Mrs. Paulson's dead body at a charity gala, everyone is convinced the architect is guilty… everyone except Harry and her special feline friends.

• The Seduction of the Crimson Rose by Laura Willig—Author Laura Willig is back with the latest installment in her Pink Carnation historical fiction series. This time Mary Alsworthy, whose sister accidentally stole her suitor in The Deception of the Emerald Ring, is paired up with Lord Vaughn, the devilish spy in The Masque of the Black Tulip. Mary, determined to enter another season of London society without the help of her brother-in-law, accepts an assignment from Lord Vaughn to infiltrate the ranks of Napoleon's dreaded spy “The Black Tulip” – a man with a penchant for black-haired beauties. A natural seducer, Mary easily catches his eye. But Lord Vaughn didn't anticipate Mary catching his own heart as well.
