The treasure hunters club : a mystery / by Ryan, Tom,1977 February 26-author.;
"Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone meets The Goonies in The Treasure Hunters Club-a rollicking murder mystery set in a seaside town filled with pirate lore, family secrets, unforgiveable grudges, secret societies, and of course, a treasure lost to time. Welcome to Maple Bay, Nova Scotia. For nearly a century, people have ventured to the idyllic seaside town of Maple Bay in search of a legendary lost pirate treasure, but locals know there's more than just gold buried in the sand. As the paths of three strangers converge in Maple Bay, the truth is about to be blown wide open. But not before the bodies start to pile up. Peter Barnett is rapidly approaching forty with little to show for it when a mysterious letter invites him to Maple Bay and the mansion his estranged family has called home for generations. Seventeen-year-old Dandy Feltzen is isolated and adrift following the death of her beloved grandfather, until his final request and a tantalizing clue sets her on a mission to solve the mystery he spent his entire life chasing. Cass Jones has given up on her dream of being a successful author when an unexpected opportunity lands in her lap: a housesitting gig in remote Maple Bay, where she stumbles on the perfect subject matter for her breakout book -- and the handsome sailor who might be just the person to help her research it. Peter, Dandy, and Cass have never met, but they're on a collision course with each other and the mystery that has defined Maple Bay for two centuries, and none of them are prepared for the shocking truths that may or may not still be buried there."--

No more secrets / by Score, Lucy,author.;
"Carter Pierce isn't interested in being fixed up. This wounded ex-soldier just wants to enjoy the peace and quiet of his quirky small town. Too bad that solitude is about to be interrupted by big-city, workaholic journalist, Summer Lentz. Sprung on him by his own mother, she's there to write a story about his family farm. Thanks, Mom. Carter sees the interruption as a barely tolerable irritation. The town sees it as the perfect matchmaking opportunity. Under the watchful eyes of every Blue Mooner, Carter grudgingly agrees to let Summer stay ... under his roof. Every single thing about her -- from her perky questions to her designer wardrobe to those kissable lips -- gets under his skin. While his brothers have been happy to let him heal his wounds in solitude, Summer seems hell-bent on digging up the truth ... without sharing her own. She's not there to spill her life story to a sexy, scowling blue collar stranger. And she's certainly not planning to fall in love with Blue Moon and its spirited shenanigans. She has a job, a life, an apartment in New York. Carter throws her headfirst into farm life in hopes of sending the curious journalist packing. But he can't help but notice the mysterious Summer doesn't just stick, she flourishes. His single brothers notice it too, leaving Carter no choice but to stake his temporary claim. As these two dance around their reluctant mutual attraction, the town's attempts to pair them off permanently reach ridiculous heights and have them questioning everything they thought they knew. But when Summer's story takes an unexpected turn, will they be willing to rewrite the ending together?"--
