Strings of Fate — Deirdre Dore

In the first novel in a gripping romantic suspense trilogy, a yoga instructor unintentionally lures a serial killer to her small town and finds herself falling for the sexy FBI agent sent to hunt him down.

Christina Pascal has never had a real job...or a real boyfriend. When she isn't teaching yoga or attending classes, she is either getting paid to invent fake relationships for people on the Internet, or she is working to solve cold cases in her hometown of Fate, Georgia -- a town tainted by haunting memories of the past.

Christina and her best friends, Tavey and Raquel, were only children when their best friend disappeared -- a crime that remains unsolved. Now, sixteen years later, the three friends are hoping to uncover some clues about their friend and other missing children. But what Christina doesn't realize is that her search for the missing has attracted the attention of a serial killer, and he is using fake identities to lure in his victims. Now, Christina fears that she could be his next target.

To complicate matters, a gorgeous FBI agent, Ryan Helmer, is sent in to help Christina with the case, but she doesn't know whether she can trust him, especially when their sizzling chemistry jeopardizes the case…
