Big Sky Standoff by B.J. Daniels, Montana Mystique, Harlequin Intrigue, ISBN 0373692366

There was a standoff brewing between Dillon Savage and cattle inspector Jacklyn Wilde.  Toe to toe, they were an equal match, but together they were an imperfect pair.  After four long years, they were hitting the open range again, to bring justice to a lawless land.

Attached at the hip until a rustling ring was busted, they had to make the best of a bad situation.  But the real trouble was Dillon Savage. The cowboy was as cocksure and adventurous as ever.  He had old scores to settle, and Jacklyn was there to make sure he didn't stray from his path.  Only she didn't know that she was first in line....

Trace Evidence in Tarrant County by Delores Fossen, The Silver Star of Texas, Harlequin Intrigue, ISBN

Sheriff Carley Matheson had her hands full: A sixteen-year-old unsolved murder and a strong hunch that the killer had resurfaced and struck again.  As if things couldn't get any worse, the Texas Rangers had sent Sloan McKinney--the one man she'd always tried to keep at a distance--to spearhead the investigation.

Now the only way to keep the citizens of Justice, Texas, safe--and solve two connected crimes--was to join forces.  But someone resented Carley and Sloan digging up the past, and before long two of Texas's finest found themselves caught in the crosshairs of a murderer.

Flynn O'Shay never thought twice about rushing into a deadly blaze if it meant saving someone's life.  But untangling the mystery of the enchanting Whitney Charles?  That took a different kind of guts.  Sure, he'd been brave enough to steal a kiss from the sleeping beauty while she was still unconscious.  But now that she was awake and tight-lipped about her involvement in the suspicious fire, Flynn needed to proceed with caution.  Could he charm her into confessing the truth in time?

Or would a killer's next move incinerate his dreams for a happily ever after?

He'd been instructed to teach her every trick in the book

Jeremy Barnes was the Blackwell Group’s top investigator for one reason: he got the job done.  Even while breaking in the team’s new recruit, Mercedes Ramos.  Their mission: find the son of a powerful computer magnate.

Tracking the missing boy only grew harder when the investigators found themselves being tailed by someone smarter--and more dangerous.  But Mercedes had something to prove and the dashing Mr. Barnes something to hide, so no one was backing down.  But discovering what made each other tick was a temptation neither detective could resist--and might just push them over the edge.
