Murder and a touch of romance in a small southern town. Follow along as the murder leads to an old crime of passion.
A COZY NEW MYSTERY SERIES TO CURL UP WITH... A simple errand leads Megan Cassidy into more trouble that she could have ever thought possible...before she knows what has happened, she has become the witness to a murder and a target for bullets and speeding trucks. Who knew there could be so much going on in this little southern town, where your neighbors watched your back and "Mom & Pop" businesses populated Main Street? FBI Consultant, Aiden Tory, is brought in to help solve the murder, and he soon discovers that Megan is an asset with her knowledge of the ins and outs of living in this small southern town and her close connections with the inhabitant of Citrus Beach. Not only are they working well together, but sparks of a different kind start to kindle. Could there be the hint of romance in the tropic air? And, as if this wasn't enough, Megan has other problems to contend with: an over-zealous news reporter and the threat of an approaching tropical storm! Add in a sweet little beagle puppy named Barney and Megan's normally organized life is in total chaos. Follow Megan and Aiden as they uncover leads that expose a scheme that would destroy the beach-side nature preserve of Neptune's Trident, a place full of beauty and a history known to just a few. Be there when one dangerous night when the sins and broken hearts of the past are confronted with the revenge and greed of the present.
Excerpt
Deciding that she had enough pictures, she turned to head back towards the house. That’s when the peaceful silence was shattered by a loud crack, almost like a backfire of a car. Just about jumping out of her skin, Megan looked around trying to locate the source of the sound. She focused on the boat and saw that there were now only two men on board. Before she had a chance to call out to them and see if they were in trouble, she watched in horror as the two remaining men bent over and lifted the third man off the bottom of the boat. With obvious effort, they threw him into the river with a single splash.
