About the book

There is a sudden blast from Mallory Hemingway’s past in the peaceful town of Key West. The appearance of her ex-boyfriend, Andrew Mercer, has her considering escaping on the next available flight.

Andrew is eager to rekindle their romance, but things take a drastic turn when Mallory’s rival is found murdered in the Hemingway Home Bookstore, putting Andrew in the prime suspect position. Desperate for Mallory to clear his name, Andrew resorts to playing hardball if she resists.

Luckily, Mallory isn’t alone in this chaotic situation. With the support of her quirky best friend, Juniper Jones, and her unconventional new friend, Ernesta Castro - a marijuana-smoking hippie with a love for motorcycles and leather - they embark on a mission to unravel the secrets behind the murder. However, the closer they get to the truth, the more they realize that danger lurks at every corner.

While juggling the murder investigation and an annoying ex, Mallory finds herself caught in a romantic dilemma. Detective Luke Beckett’s personal interest in her complicates matters even further, especially when her old flame, Huck Jameson, resurfaces in town.

With a killer on the loose, an ex causing chaos, and two men vying for her affection, Mallory must solve more than just one puzzle. Will she be able to catch the culprit before her shot at happiness slips away?
