Reporter Roz Melander has juggled more than enough chaos since she moved back to her quirky Florida hometown. After breaking the big story that led her to the reinvented Courier-Beacon, she has her hands full with work ... and a hot-off-the-press romance with colleague Alden Knox. But when they stumble upon a disturbing death that looks like murder, she knows they have another explosive story to investigate.
Alden's specialty is digging up celebrity dirt, but he'd rather not go through a grave to do it. The hapless movie producer who was killed behind Comet Cove's bookstore-in the middle of a signing by Alden's favorite author-had glittering connections and a gift for gab. It seems everyone at the event knew him. But who wanted him dead?
As Roz and Alden chase leads, secrets, and a decent cup of coffee through their star-studded beach town, their story takes a treacherous turn. Can they unravel the mystery before someone else dies-or, perish the thought, they miss deadline?
Pen and Peril is a low-spice funny romantic mystery. This novel contains mild cursing, unabashed longing and closed-door canoodling with lots of giggles. This is the second book in the Comet Cove Mysteries by Lucy Lakestone, author of the Bohemia Bartenders Mysteries.
