Book Description
New York Times bestselling author Karen Hawkins delivers a sparkling, sexy story featuring Roxie's brother Mark and Susan, the smart and sassy police dispatcher.
With hysterical allegations of a 'fix' at the Baptist Church Bake-Off, the arrival in town of a handsome and single preacher, and the continuing antics of the town's sleazy mayor, reporter Susan Collins's plate is full. So when the local Murder Mystery Club, a triumvirate of octogenarians from the local assisted living center, show up at her desk requesting information on a decades old missing persons case, Susan is intrigued.
The newspaper's hunky CFO, Mark Tremayne, feels it's his duty to stop the hemorrhaging of the poorly run paper and the prying eyes of these untrained elders, but his ideas don't sit well with the spunky redheaded reporter.
As Susan investigates the mystery the MMC has drudged up and fights tooth and nail against Mark's plans for the paper, unexpected sparks fly between them. But can Susan's aspirations to be Lois Lane and Mark's serious-and seriously sexy-Clark Kent personality team up for a Superman-worthy ending?
