Set the Dark on Fire: A Rouge Romantic Suspense

Jill Sorenson's family moved from a small town in Kansas to a suburb of San Diego when she was twelve. In the past twenty years, she hasn't lost her appreciation for sunny weather, her fascination with the Pacific Ocean, or her love for Southern California culture. She still lives in San Diego with her husband, Chris, and their two small children, and is happily working on her next novel. 
 
She is the author of Crash into Me, Set the Dark on Fire and The Edge of Night, all available from Rouge.

Shay Phillips knows her way around Dark Canyon. She's handy with a gun and can track a wild animal with the best of them. It's humans who usually give her the most trouble. And with a hormonally charged teenage brother to raise - and her own admitted weakness for the wrong kind of man - they're giving her plenty of trouble these days. Then there's the matter of murder. As an expert on mountain lions, Shay is skeptical when a local prostitute turns up mauled without a drop of blood near the body. 
 
Now, together with the town's newly arrived sheriff, Luke Meza - a Las Vegas city boy with his own dark secrets - Shay must navigate a dangerous valley filled with angry ex-lovers, unfaithful spouses, and poisonous snakes in a desperate search for the killer.

The Edge of Night

The Edge of Night is...absolutely riveting...I loved this novel

With an emotionally charged romance, heart-pounding suspense and characters who resonate long after the book is finished, The Edge of Night delivers! You are guaranteed a dangerously addictive, gut-wrenchingly tight paced read

New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Tyler

Carnal scenes that wouldn't be out of place in Penthouse Forum litter the pages. Sorenson makes her characters realistic, flawed, and appealing. Deftly handled violent action and red herrings rush this thriller to a believable ending.

The Edge of Night is taut with emotion, suspense and danger. Sorenson expertly weaves the two stories into a heart-wrenching conclusion.

To support her small daughter, April Ortiz does what she has to do - which means waiting tables in a skimpy outfit at a popular nightclub in a gang-infested area of town. When one of her co-workers is raped and murdered, April does what she knows she shouldn't - she defies the neighbourhood code by giving the police a hardcore gang member's name. 
 
Clean-cut cop Noah Young wants a shot at breaking this case more than anything in the world - that is, until he meets April Ortiz. When April gives Noah the tip, a spark ignites. As the fire between them threatens to blaze out of control, the two are dragged down further into the dark mysteries of the graffiti-lined streets, taunted by a crazed killer who could strike again at any time.

Crash into Me: A Rouge Romantic Suspense

(A) high tension romantic thriller...culminating in a page-turning climax... full of explosive sex and terrible secrets

Beautiful characters, true-to-life emotions, heart-stopping action and a bona fide bad guy - it doesn't get any better than this

Though he's gone into virtual seclusion, Ben Fortune is still the world's most famous surfer, known as much for his good looks as for his skill. He's also a suspect in a series of brutal murders that may have begun with his late wife. 
 
Now FBI Special Agent Sonora "Sonny" Vasquez has been sent undercover to the elite beach community of La Jolla to make friends with Fortune. With her fierce beauty and take-no-prisoners attitude, she's more than equipped for the job, and soon she and Ben have collided in an affair that is both intense and irresistible. But for the first time in Sonny's career, her emotions are threatening to get the better of her. Could this passionate, wounded man, who is genuinely anguished over his troubled daughter, really be a killer? And could falling in love blind Sonny to the greatest danger of all?

Jill Sorenson

Some desires are too dangerous to embrace. 
 
As the owner of a flourishing Latin American crafts boutique, Karina Strauss should be basking in her success. Instead, she’s worried about her troubled sister, the girlfriend – and prisoner – of drug lord, Carlos Moreno. Kari wants no part of that life, but when she helps a friend cross into the United States illegally, two men on opposite sides of the law take notice: Moreno and Adam Cortez, the handsome border protection officer who lets Kari off the hook. It’s not just Kari’s tantalizing flash of skin that catches Adam’s attention – her drug cartel connections bring back the demons of his past. 
 
Moreno demands that Kari smuggle a package for him in exchange for her sister’s freedom. Adam also gets dangerously close, tempting her to surrender and fulfill her wildest desires. As Kari prepares for the drug run, dark secrets and deadly consequences lurk around every corner. But concern for her sister drives Kari toward a terrifying act – despite Adam’s warnings, despite her overwhelming fears and despite the odds against coming out alive.
