Brewed Awakening
by Cleo Coyle
Released December 3rd
When coffeehouse manager Clare Cosi
awakens on a bench in Washington
Square Park, she has no idea she’s been
missing for the past week, or that her friends
and family have been frantic with worry.
Now that she’s back, everyone is overjoyed,
including a handsome NYPD detective who
claims to be her fiancé. But to Mike Quinn’s
crushing distress, Clare doesn’t remember
him, or much of anything about the last decade
of her life.
Clare’s missing memory is tied to a crime
she witnessed. An acquaintance of Clare’s
elegant employer—and fellow member of
an exclusive Gotham circle known as “The
Ladies Who Brunch”—invited Clare to her
posh hotel to sample gourmet wedding
cakes. The pair took a stroll after their indulgent
tasting and, according to security
camera footage, a masked figure snatched
the hotel heiress at gunpoint with Clare
looking on. Did the kidnapper take Clare,
too? The camera went dark, just like Clare’s
memory. Soon authorities grow suspicious.
Is Clare really a victim? Or merely acting
like one? Evidence is mounting that she set
the woman up.
To clear her name, Clare must find a way
to reclaim her memories and rescue the
heiress before this high-stakes crime ends
in tragedy. Otherwise, instead of walking
down the aisle, Clare may find herself
perp-walking to prison as an accomplice to
kidnapping and murder.

deadly serious affair…
A The story breaks as Metro PD lieutenant
Sam Holland attends a dinner party

the First Lady was undergoing secret cancer
treatment.
When a high-profile murder case hits
Sam’s desk, she’s shocked to uncover a connection
to the presidential scandal. With
the department caught up in its own internal
scandals, and the chief’s job hanging by
a thread, Sam questions who she can trust
as her team uncovers information that
clouds an already-murky case. And with
calls for the president to resign getting
louder by the minute, Sam needs to close
this case before she finds herself living at
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
