When Emmy Cooper’s life in Chicago is turned upside down, the young interior designer retreats to her family’s lake cottage resort in the beautiful Wisconsin Northwoods for a much-needed break. Hoping to clear her mind and gain a fresh perspective, she looks forward to enjoying the slower pace and the crisp, clean pine air at her beloved Cooper’s Cove Resort with her family, dogs, and her best friend, Whitney.

Unfortunately, her homecoming isn’t as calm as she’d hoped when Emmy finds out a ruthless development company is relentlessly pressuring Lake Covington property owners, including Emmy’s family, to sell their land so they can build an extravagant, modern resort that would ruin the quaint esthetic of the area. And things only get worse when Emmy finds the dead body of one of the developers floating in the lake—murdered!

Suddenly the police are involved, and since Emmy’s father was leading the fight to stop the shady development from getting approval, he’s quickly painted as the prime suspect. Now it’s up to Emmy to prove her father’s innocence, save the reputation of Cooper’s Cove, and find out who would resort to murder.

About Annie McEwen

 

Annie McEwen is the author of the Northwoods Mysteries Series, set amongst the tall pines and sparkling lakes of northern Wisconsin, where she spent vacations as a kid. Annie and her husband are empty nesters living in their rural Indiana home, but their married children and two toddler grandsons fortunately live close by. Being grandparents is definitely the best gig ever! They also have four fur babies, one of whom is a very important character in her books. When Annie isn’t writing, playing with her grandsons, or tackling trash-to-treasure projects, she works as a radiological technologist. As a former farm kid, she still loves to dig in the dirt and garden. She’s a member of Sisters in Crime and loves attending mystery conventions.

💀Mafia
💀Alphahole MMC
💀Brother's rival
💀Happy for now

One night.
Three lives lost.
Memories, poof, gone.

Everyone blames me—his friends, my best friend—all gone. I can’t remember what happened, but Xaden Devlin does.
He’s the devil wrapped in a beautiful package.
I'm a moth to his flame.
And he’s made it his mission to destroy me.
He’s the heir to the most feared family in town—cold, cruel, and carved from vengeance.
He calls me Tink, a cruel reminder that
“Fairies die when no one believes in them anymore.”
The more he taunts me, the more I see the truth in his eyes…
The truth about that night.
The truth about my family.
And most of all the truth about us.
Maybe the devil isn’t the monster after all.
Maybe I am.

“You want to bite me?” I taunt, my gaze locked on her mouth. “Do it, baby. Hurt me. Make me feel it.”

𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐢𝐞.

𝒞𝑒𝒸𝒾𝓁𝒾𝒶
After years of evading the Exodus, the secret society responsible for my family’s destruction, I’m back and seeking revenge. Every decade, the Exodus hosts the Reckoning, a deadly gathering where members engage in sinister games. My plan: to cause as much destruction as I can even if it means infiltrating their prestigious party and eliminating them. Nothing will stand in my way—not even Darian Delacroix, the enigmatic Elder who has me in his sights.

𝒟𝒶𝓇𝒾𝒶𝓃
Cecilia Van Der Meer believed she could escape the Exodus, but she was mistaken. As the heiress to one of the largest fortunes in the country and the daughter of the Elder behind my family’s demise, she has become a target. Fortunately for me, she’s now caught in my web, and I refuse to let her slip away. I’m determined to break her, just as her father shattered my family. But the stakes are high, and the lines between love and vengeance are about to blur.

Tropes:
🖤Dark Romance
🖤Enemies to Lovers
🖤Revenge
🖤Age Gap

Blurb:

They didn’t want her gone.

They wanted her ruined.

Rowyn learned early how to survive by staying invisible.

Quiet. Careful. Forgettable.

But at Lockridge, invisibility is an invitation.

They see her softness as something to press into.

Her body as something to comment on.

Her silent as consent.

What starts as cruelty turns ritualistic.

What should break her begins to change her.

Because Rowyn is done begging to be left alone. And the boys who made her their game are about to learn something dangerous.

She was never made to bend. She was made to break something back.
