Whispers in the Night
(2026)(The second book in the Blackridge Detectives series)
A novel by J C Valentine
Broken FBI profiler Harper Sinclair came to Blackridge to escape her past. Then a serial killer followed her there.
When a ritualistic murder matches Harper's unsolved case from five years ago, she can't stay hidden. But returning to the job means facing Detective Silas Kane—the brooding profiler who doesn't trust washed-up agents and makes it clear she's not welcome on his turf.
Except Harper sees things Silas missed. And Silas can't deny the brilliant, damaged woman challenges everything he thought he knew about staying distant. When they realize all the victims look like Harper, the truth hits hard: the killer's been obsessed with her since that first case. He followed her to Blackridge. And now he's ready to make her his final victim.
Forced into close quarters to catch a madman, Harper and Silas fight an attraction neither can afford. She's convinced everyone she loves dies. He's sworn off letting anyone in. But when the killer strikes again, trust might be the only thing that saves them—if they don't destroy each other first.
Fans of Laura Griffin and Melinda Leigh will devour this enemies-to-lovers romantic suspense.
