An Agent for Amey (Book 52) by Laura Beers
Despite her parents threatening to disown her, Amey Barney decides to leave her life in Tucson to become a Pinkerton Agent in Chicago. She discovers she has a real knack for the work, but her obsession with catching the man who killed her brother gets her into trouble. When she oversteps her authority, her supervisor decides she must transfer to the Denver office or face termination. Reluctantly, she makes the move, even knowing she will be forced to marry her partner to maintain their cover. However, she's determined to never stop searching for her brother's killer.

Lincoln Hoyt is a complex man. After serving as a sniper in the Civil War, he is left broken, a shadow of the man that he once was. He finds some fulfillment working as a Pinkerton agent, but he shudders at the thought of having a woman as his partner, much less his wife.

As the newly married agents begin to track down a murderer, Amey quickly discovers that working with Lincoln might not be as terrible as she had once thought, but can she earn his respect and trust as an agent? Will Lincoln be able to let his guard down long enough to listen to his heart?

An Agent for Hazel (Book 53) by P. Creeden
Hazel Lockwood - the youngest of the Lockwood sisters won't be outdone by her older siblings. When Ruby returns to Boston with a new husband-to-be, there are sinister forces afoot that prove that not everyone is happy for the newest bride. Kidnapping, a forced wedding interrupted. Hazel gets her first case even before she becomes a Pinkerton agent. But how will her parents respond when they discover that's exactly what Hazel wants to become, too.

An Agent for Cynthia (Book 54) by Amelia C. Adams
Cynthia Baxter has always wanted to be a detective, and she's read enough mystery novels to be sure she's perfect for the task. She applies at the Denver office of the Pinkerton Detective Agency and is told she'll be contacted, but she doesn't hear from Agent Archibald Gordon until she's quite sure they've forgotten all about her. When she is finally summoned, she's ready to go, willing to do her part.

Agent Corbin Rawlings has devoted his life to his job at the Pinkerton agency, and marrying a new female agent so he can protect her on their case seems like just another part of the assignment. Until he meets her, that is, and realizes that she's not only going to be a useful partner, but a very desirable wife. Things become more complex than they first imagined, though, when they learn that their current case ties into a mystery Corbin was never able to solve, and that their lives are in greater danger than they ever supposed.
