Afterburn/Aftershock by Sylvia Day
Afterburn and Aftershock Books 1 and 2
Never mix
business with pleasure. Never bring politics into the bedroom. In a way I
did both when I took Jackson Rutledge as a lover. I can't say I wasn't
warned.
Two years later, he was back. Walking into a
deal I'd worked hard to close. Under the tutelage of Lei Yeung, one of
the sharpest businesswomen in New York, I had picked up a thing or two
since Jax walked away. I wasn't the girl he once knew, but he hadn't
changed. Unlike the last time we'd drifted into each other's lives, I
knew exactly what I was dealing with... and how addictive his touch
could be.
The inner circle of glamour, sex, and privilege was
Jax's playground--but this time, I knew the rules of the game. In the
cutthroat business world, one adage rules all: keep your enemies close
and your ex-lovers closer...

Field of Prey by John Sandford
Lucas Davenport Series Book # 24
The night after the fourth of July, Layton Carlson Jr., of Red Wing, Minnesota, finally got lucky. And unlucky.
He’d picked the perfect spot to lose his virginity to his girlfriend,
an abandoned farmyard in the middle of cornfields: nice, private, and
quiet. The only problem was . . . something smelled bad—like, really bad.
He mentioned it to a county deputy he knew, and when the cop took a
look, he found a body stuffed down a cistern. And then another, and
another.
By the time Lucas Davenport was called in, the police
were up to fifteen bodies and counting. And as if that wasn’t bad
enough, when Lucas began to investigate, he made some disturbing
discoveries of his own. The victims had been killed over a great many
years, one every summer, regular as clockwork. How could this have
happened without anybody noticing?
Because one thing was for sure: the killer had to live close by. He was probably even someone they saw every day.
