Heart of the Bayou
Stella St. Valliers is on a treasure hunt. Cane Town, Louisiana lore has it that Shadow Oaks plantation, where she lives with her spinster aunt, hides a valuable secret within its walls. Stella is determined to discover the rumored pirates' loot and restore her legacy to its former glory. But even as she sequesters herself in the ramshackle old house, events in the neighborhood take a shocking turn. Soon enough, gunshots in the night and an unexpected guest lead danger straight to her doorstep...

Twist of Fate
The wounded stranger's name is Garrett Shaw, and before long, Stella has shared more than she ever intended with a man about whom she knows very little. The only fact she can be sure of is that someone wants Garrett dead. In sheltering him, Stella has entangled herself in a web of intrigue, putting her heart - and her life - in jeopardy...

~~~Pretty good read. Set in Louisiana, which is fast becoming of favorite setting of mine. New to this author, and I will certainly look for more by her.

~~~Off to T, who was introduced to romantic suspense and is liking it, and loves Louisiana.

Thank you Heather!
