Raven’s Nest (Raven’s Cliff Book 3) by Elle James and Kris Norris <— SHE’S TRYING TO START OVER… “...Some wrecks are meant to stay buried. Some secrets refuse to drown. A year ago, the Vigilant vanished off the Oregon coast during a classified mission. All hands were presumed lost—until Coast Guard officer Saylor O’Conner was found days later, half-frozen and barely alive in a battered Zodiac. She survived, but her memories of what happened aboard the doomed vessel remain fractured, obscured by trauma and fear. Now, she’s trying to rebuild a quiet life in Raven’s Cliff, where the fog conceals more than just the coastline. But someone hasn’t forgotten what happened at sea — and they’ve just found her...”
Reckless Roses (Pacific Shores Book 3) by Sarah A. Bailey <— SHE FRIEND ZONED HIM! “…For Augustus Hayes, first love was instantaneous. From the moment he found her scaling a tree in his yard, plucking purple flowers from its branches, August knew his heart belonged to Elena Ramos. Elena had the exact same experience; about August’s older brother, Zach, that is. Deciding he’d rather have her as a friend than nothing at all, August ferments himself in Elena’s friend zone, unable to let go of the hope that someday, she’ll choose him...”

And as Justine takes a special interest in her, Hannah falls completely under her spell. When Hannah’s life starts spiraling out of control, she isn’t sure who to blame–Justine, for her intense and controlling influence, their jealous classmate Amelia, or herself. As her prescription fails her, she strays further and further from the straight and narrow…”

After all, a tour guide who specializes in serial killers knows better than most that San Francisco is a city with killer charm. Capri Sanzio knows that when you give serial killer walking tours for a living, unexpected situations are more common than San Francisco’s famous fog. So, when one of her guests claims to see a woman being attacked during a tour, Capri remains unphased. The police search the apartment in question and find no evidence of anything amiss, so they chalk it up to a false report from a true crime fanatic looking to be a part of a case. And Capri thinks they might be right, since lately her tours have been attracting even more obsessives than usual...”
