The hilarious dialog and the tension between Savannah and Rafe will delight fans of chick-lit mysteries and romantic suspense. Jo Ann Vicarel, Library Journal
Savannah Martin has always been a good girl, doing what was expected and fully expecting life to fall into place in its turn. But when her perfect husband turns out to be a lying, cheating slimeball-and bad in bed to boot-Savannah kicks the jerk to the curb and embarks on life on her own terms. With a new apartment, a new career, and a brand new outlook on life, she's all set to take the world by storm.
If only the world would stop throwing her curveballs...
Savannah is delighted to be back in her hometown of Sweetwater, surrounded by family and friends, even if it's only temporarily. The house in Nashville is in the process of being repaired after the fire. Baby Caroline is alive and well and getting bigger every day. And Rafe is all recovered, and is working for Tamara Grimaldi and the Columbia PD, at least for the time being. That probably won't last, but for now, Savannah's content.
There are flies in the ointment, however. Savannah's best friend from high school is back in town, and seems to be setting her cap for Savannah's brother Dix. Savannah has been rooting for Dix and Tamara Grimaldi to get together, and this new development doesn't make her happy. Sure, she loves Charlotte... but Charlotte already has a husband, and shouldn't need another one. She especially shouldn't need Dix, not when Savannah wants Grimaldi to have him.
And then there's the case Rafe is working on. Katie Graves was a teenager when she disappeared fifteen years ago. Now she's back-or at least her remains are. And the evidence in what looks like a case of homicide points squarely to one of Savannah's nearest and dearest. With another Martin on the hot-seat, and Rafe and Grimaldi duty-bound to serve the law, it's up to Savannah to keep her family safe and out of prison.
I have loved this series since book one and have enjoyed being along for the ride as Savannah has grown from the princess on the hill who tried to live up to her mother's outdated expectations into a strong woman who stands up for her own beliefs and the man she loves. Jenna Bennett has tackled a sensitive subject with honesty, Southern charm, and laugh out loud humor. And the series keeps getting better. I can't wait for the next one. Amazon Reviewer Karli
