Now get six romantic suspense novels set in the Southwest, by Kris Bock, in one box set—$9.99 or free in Kindle Unlimited! 

This set contains:

Desert Gold: A legendary treasure hunt in the dramatic–and deadly–New Mexico desert.

When a quiet history professor uncovers a clue to the lost Victorio Peak treasure, she prepares for adventure with her best friend and a feisty cat. But she’s not the only one on the hunt. Is the handsome pilot a hero or the enemy?

“The story has it all - action, romance, danger, intrigue, lost treasure, not to mention a sizzling relationship....”

Desert Gold is the first of the Southwest Treasure Hunters novels. Valley of Gems is book 2 and Silver Canyon is book 3. Each novel stands alone and is complete, with no cliffhangers. This series mixes action and adventure of treasure hunting fiction with romance. These Southwestern adventures are set in New Mexico and Arizona.

Valley of Gems: Rebecca Westin’s grandfather left a buried treasure, and a complex series of clues. Her half-siblings are determined to reach the treasure first. Good thing Rebecca has Sam, making their desert adventure sexy and fun. But a treacherous enemy also wants that treasure – and revenge.

“I can’t say enough how much I loved this book! It has mystery, adventure, danger, romance, and above it all family remains a huge theme.”


Silver Canyon: Camille Dagneau – beautiful, brilliant, and prickly – and Ryan MacAllister are on the hunt for a lost treasure and a missing uncle. The clues will take Camie, Ryan, and the feisty cat Tiger on a trail through the Southwest. If you love suspense and romance, don’t miss this gripping adventure!

“Silver Canyon is a light, breezy action/adventure/romance that’s perfect for summer reading.”

The Kris Bock Romantic Suspense Box Set also contains three standalone romantic suspense novels.

Whispers in the Dark: Archaeology student Kylie Hafford craves adventure when she heads to the remote Puebloan ruins of Lost Valley, Colorado, to excavate. Romance isn’t in her plans, but she soon meets two sexy men: Danesh looks like a warrior from the Pueblo’s ancient past, and Sean is a charming, playful tourist. The summer heats up as Kylie uncovers mysteries, secrets, and terrors in the dark. She’ll need all her strength and wits to survive—and to save the man she’s come to love. 

“The plot was full of twists and turns, always keeping the reader rooting for the heroine. The writing kept me guessing until the end. Excellent read!”

What We Found: When Audra stumbles on a murdered woman in the woods, more than one person isn’t happy about her bringing the crime to light. She’ll have to stand up for herself in order to stand up for the murder victim. It’s a risk, and so is reaching out to the mysterious man who works with deadly birds of prey. But with danger all around, some risks are worth taking.

“Another action-packed suspense novel by Kris Bock, perhaps her best to-date.”

Counterfeits: Jenny returns to her grandparents’ art camp in a remote New Mexico town after her grandmother’s sudden death. That night she wakes to the noise of intruders. What do the strangers want? As more bizarre vents unfold, Jenny realizes the people she thought she knew are not what they seem – least of all Rob, an old friend whose past may be coming back to haunt them all.

Counterfeits is the kind of romantic suspense novel I have enjoyed since I first read Mary Stewart’s Moonspinners.” – Roberta at Sensuous Reviews blog

The Magical Cat Café and Teashop: cozy magical realism for fans of Before the Coffee Gets Cold, The Midnight Bookshop, and Days at the Morisaki Bookshop.

“What is magic anyway? Maybe it’s just opening ourselves to possibilities."

The Magical Cat Café and Teashop is a tender, cozy novel about finding family, healing, and home for fans of healing stories like Before the Coffee Gets Cold, The Midnight Bookshop, and Days at the Morisaki Bookshop.

This small-town cat café is more than a place for sweet treats and playful cats—it's a sanctuary for people who each need something different:

  • Leslie’s carefully managed life is missing a vital piece.
  • Saul is a lonely senior seeking connection.
  • Miranda, a mother stretched thin, longs for support.
  • June, a newly retired woman, feels invisible.
  • Harriet and her 12 year old son Danny have each other but deserve so much more.

This cozy refuge soon becomes the stage for transformation and surprising friendships as the ordinary and the magical blend over steaming cups of tea and a parade of friendly felines.

The Magical Cat Café and Teashop is a tender, cozy novel about finding family, healing, and home. 

Readers say: "A heartwarming story.”
