    About this series

    Two novels of sizzling romantic suspense set in the steamy Florida Keys from a New York Times–bestselling author who “always entertains” (Heather Graham).

    In one volume, two gripping novels from Meryl Sawyer, who “writes romantic suspense that keeps you turning pages with lightning speed” (New York Times–bestselling author Kristin Hannah).
     
    Half Moon Bay: Her safety in the witness protection program suddenly compromised, Amy Conroy is on the run until a car accident lands her in a Key West Hospital. When she’s mistaken for the dead driver, Amy undergoes reconstructive surgery and steps into the strange woman’s identity—and a passionate and risky relationship with a handsome investigative journalist. But her new life as Shelly Ralston is much more treacherous than she bargained for, and a madman with murder in mind has his eye on her.
     
    Thunder Island: A dedicated member of Miami’s K9 search-and-rescue unit, Jennifer Whitmore is in Key West for an antiterrorism unit when she finds herself face-to-face with the man she once loved. The unexpected reunion awakens a desire they’d both thought long dead, complicating the task at hand when the pair must join forces to rescue a missing child. Neither of them anticipates the twisted tangle of lies they will uncover at an elite resort—or the disturbing secrets someone will kill to keep.

Even Matt Jensen, the investigative journalist Shelly was obsessively in love with, believes Amy’s the deceased woman.   As Amy lives a lie, she begins to fall for Matt herself and soon discovers how deep passions can run. But her idyllic days in Key West are numbered. The Feds—and a criminal mastermind—are closing in. And now Amy is the only link in a string of murder cases.

    Meryl Sawyer

    Meryl grew up in Santa Fe, New Mexico, the only child of a single mother. She gives her mother credit for her love of books and encouraging her to write. When Meryl was in the third grade her birthday gift was an ancient Underwood with the E key missing. That didn't stop Meryl! She wrote stories and went back and put in the E with a pencil. She's been writing ever since - first on a typewriter, then a word processor, then a computer. When Meryl finally decided to get serious about writing - by serious she meant wanting to see her work in print - Meryl attended the Writers Program at UCLA. She had graduated from UCLA years earlier but this time she returned to study writing. There Meryl was fortunate to meet Colleen McCullough, author of Thornbirds. She was on tour and one of Meryl's instructors threw a cocktail party to introduce Colleen to some aspiring writers. Colleen was unbelievably warm and charming and helpful. "Write what you like to read," she told the students. Meryl had always wanted to be a female Sidney Sheldon - so that's the direction she took. Meryl completed a novel, attended seminars, met an agent and had offers from four different publishers within two months of finishing the book. That's not every author's experience, but it happened that way for Meryl. She jokingly says, "I thought I would be famous by Friday - Saturday at the very latest. Here I am eighteen years later. Not famous but successful, and more importantly, happy." One thing all Meryl's books have in common is animals. Her canine buddies have even helped Meryl's career. They have spent countless hours under her desk while she was writing. Meryl loves to hear from readers. She may be reached on the web at www.merylsawyer.com.
