Long Shadow By Elle Keaton
Narrated by Michael Dean
Hamarsson & Dempsey, Book 2
Niall’s known nothing but betrayal. All Mat wants is Niall’s heart; what will it take for him to coax Niall in from the cold?
Mat’s connection with Niall is tenuous. One step forward, two steps back. Since that night on the beach Niall’s been avoiding Mat like a bad case of the flu–which, ironically, most of his deputies have come down with. What will it take for Niall to believe Mat wants him for who he is?
Mat’s overworked, Niall’s unnerved, and then things really go sideways.
Will a killer destroy everything before Niall realizes they are stronger together than apart?
Long Shadow is a dual POV about a broody introvert and a somewhat patient Sheriff. Mat will have to prove to Niall he’s the man for him. The Hamarsson and Dempsey series follows the same couple as they find their way to their happily ever after.

The road Niall was following now was not the main artery between Killegen’s Point and Hidden Harbor. It was a narrow, almost one-lane road that cut across from Killegen’s Point to the easternmost point of the island. Niall drove slowly along it, passing a yellow No Outlet warning sign; most likely the only drivers he would come upon here would be locals. As thoroughly as he scanned both sides of the road, he didn’t see any sign of the camper. But there were plenty of driveways it could’ve driven down, plenty of brush and spots densely covered with trees, plenty of places for an RV to hide.
Niall slowed to a stop as he neared the end of the road. Beyond it, the land dropped into a sheer bluff that overlooked the straits between Piedras and the mainland. Without consciously thinking about it, he parked along the shoulder and climbed out. Fenrir let out an impatient bark from inside, and Niall let him out too, knowing he wouldn’t go far. Fenrir was low maintenance. Niall chuckled—that was not a concept he would apply to himself.
He paused at the guardrail, his hands jammed into the pockets of his jacket for protection from the cold. As he stood at the end of the road, the fog began melting away, slow at first and then faster, until he could see all the way across the water to the mainland crouching in the distance. Niall took a deep breath of the salt-laden air, filling his lungs, then released it. As he stared out at the dark silhouette of land, something unnameable inside himself loosened a bit further, a nearly tangible click into place. Piedras felt right.
Niall didn’t feel like an old-timer, but he did have a history on the island; he existed here as more than a bitter homicide cop. Some islanders—like Mat Dempsey—even seemed to want him there. Most of the residents seemed to accept Niall’s presence, and the few who whispered behind his back… well, that’s the way things had always been.

Conspiracy Theory by Elle Keaton
Narrated by Michael Dean
Hamarsson & Dempsey, Book 1
Mat Dempsey returned to Piedras Island after his father’s death. These days he’s Island County’s sheriff. He’s happy enough, even if moving home from San Francisco effectively forced him back into the closet. Mat’s well-ordered universe collapses when a local’s body is discovered floating in the cold waters of Hidden Harbor’s marina. All hell breaks loose in the community, and accusations fly…all coinciding with Niall Hamarsson’s return.
Niall and Mat have a history, and it’s not one Mat’s proud of. He owes Niall an apology, even if it means getting down on his knees. However, Mat’s first priority is investigating the murder before his community tears itself apart, and he may have to ask the aloof Niall Hamarsson for help.
Push apart, pull together, yes or no… The chemistry crackles between them, but will the two men be able to put aside their pasts and embrace a future?
