See something / by Perry, Carol J.;
Salem's WICH-TV program director Lee Barrett is about to discover no good deed goes unpunished... Lee has been promoted from field reporter to program director. Keeping track of all the shows and managing the local TV personalities--including a cowboy, a clown, and a performing dog--has her head spinning. Perhaps that's what makes her take pity on the distraught woman she finds sitting alone on a bench on the Salem common. When she realizes that the poor woman doesn't even know her own name, Lee takes her into the warmth of the home she shares with her Aunt Ibby and their clairvoyant gentleman cat, O'Ryan. Maybe Lee can use her own psychic gifts to divine the woman's identity. Lee's detective beau Pete Mondello wants to talk to the Jane Doe, but before he can investigate, he's called to a crime scene. A body has been found washed up in a narrow harbor cove. As harmless as her new houseguest seems, Lee can't help but wonder if she may be harboring a killer...

Every little piece of me / by Jones, Amy,author.;
Ava Hart is the most reluctant cast member of a reality TV show based on her big-city family's (mostly staged) efforts to run a B&B in small-town Nova Scotia. All families have their problems, but Ava has seen her family's every up and down broadcast on national television. Mags Kovach is the charismatic lead singer of a Halifax rock band on brink of becoming the Next Big Thing. For years, she's managed to contain her demons and navigate her way through the uglier aspects of being a woman in the music world. But after a devastating loss, she turns her anger on the only person she can: herself. As their public missteps and private tragedies set social media and tabloid headlines on fire, it will be the unexpected friendship between Ava and Mags that will change their lives. They will push back against the roles they've been forced to play, and take back control of something they thought they'd lost forever--the right to their own stories.
