Killer Instincts by dark_obsessions13

Bailey Carson, a criminal justice student and police intern, has always been fascinated by serial killers and the horror genre--but she never expected to find herself living in one. When a series of brutal murders terrorizes her university, Bailey becomes consumed by the case, especially when the victims aren't just strangers-they're people she knew. Her best friend, Eva Watson, is her complete opposite--an art student who avoids anything violent or gory. But as the body count rises and fear spreads across campus, Eva is forced to step outside her comfort zone, helping Bailey and the police uncover the killer before it's too late. But the deeper Bailey digs, the clearer it becomes that these murders aren't random. The victims were chosen, and the killer is leaving a message. For her. As the city enforces a curfew and paranoia sets in, Bailey realizes the killer isn't a faceless monster hiding in the shadows--he's someone close. Someone watching. Someone who has been waiting. And he isn't done yet. Book trailer (inside) made by the lovely ClaraElisibeth **Trigger Warnings listed inside**

As the CEO of Diamond Glow, she is the epitome of strength and success, but beneath her flawless exterior lies a heart weighed down by secrets, betrayals, and a family that sees her as both an asset and a rival. Her own brother harbors a grudge so deep that he vows to take everything from her. Her mother, ever calculating, demands a marriage that Ellie refuses to entertain. And then there's the past-buried truths that threaten to unravel everything she's built. Ryan Adams is a man living in the shadows of grief. Six years ago, he lost his sister and the woman he loved in a single, tragic moment. His father never forgave him. He never forgave himself. Now, drawn into a business deal with Ellie, he finds himself face-to-face with a woman who challenges him, intrigues him-and reminds him of everything he swore he'd never want again. Neither of them believes in love. Neither of them trusts easily. But when fate forces them into each other's orbit, tangled in a web of corporate battles, hidden enemies, and forbidden emotions, the line between business and desire begins to blur. But deception lurks in the shadows. The past is never truly buried, and the deeper they fall, the more dangerous the truth becomes.
