After a Killer

(2026)
(The second book in the Dinner Club series)
A novel by

 
 
A murderous, second-chance, frenemies-to-lovers romantic comedy with an obsessed MMC who would do anything for the closed-off and untrusting FMC. This is the second book in The Dinner Club series, but can be read as a standalone.

Dr. Jacob Jones knows exactly who he is: a loyal friend, an army psychologist, and—according to one fiery redhead—a complete pain in the ass. Their monthly college dinner club is the only thing keeping them in each other’s orbit, until one weekend changes everything.


When they wake up in the same bed, insults fly, and threats are made. But before they can retreat to safer ground, fate pulls them into something far more dangerous than unresolved chemistry: a murder investigation. Jonesy quickly learns just how dark and demanding Katie’s world can be as she hunts the city’s worst criminals.

Dr. Katie Murphy is running on empty. After a brutal year with the Seattle Police Department, all she has left is dinner club nights—and trading barbs with the man who broke her heart eight years ago. Sleep has become a stranger to her ever since a serial killer case awakened something she doesn’t fully understand.

Now forced to work together, Katie faces an impossible choice:
Can she trust Jonesy with the truth?
What if he tells their friends?
What if he’s disgusted by what she’s become?


As Jonesy helps her finally find rest, Katie begins to piece herself back together. But leaning on him is only a temporary fix—and falling for him again could shatter her all over.

With a new murder to solve and the pressure mounting, Katie must decide what matters more: protecting herself, or trusting Jonesy with her life—and her heart.
